latest drivers for the wacom. and in the wacom settings it shows the pressure sensitivity working, but it does not work in photoshop!! its making me go grrr

I've uninstalled an reinstalled an reinstalled an uninstalled.

clues hints?

    on my home machine, if i don't keep focus on photoshop while it loads i get zero pressure sensitivity.

    as long as i just let it sit and load, i'm fine.

    i think i'm on cs3, though

    You might try rolling back to a previous version of the drivers. That has fixed things for me before.

    sometimes my pressure sensitivity wonks out for no apparent reason, what works for me is to just keep the wacom control panel open in the background. I guess that reminds it to stay on, or something, I don't pretend to understand but hey - it works.

    Same here. I can't do anything when photoshop is launching otherwise I get zero sensitivity also. Just closing it and relaunching it and waiting for it to fully load before doing anything always works.

    In CS and CS2 I would lose it randomly while working, normally if I would switch focus while it was saving. Relaunching it would work.
