Luminous-red Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 I just recently bought a MacBook Pro intel core i7 with OS Lion, i like to draw so i wanted to install my Intuos 4 tablet that i bought 2 years ago that i used on my old Vaio computer, simple enough. The problem is that when i put the installation disk, turns out, i can´t install the program to run my tablet because this new OS is not compatible with "powerPC" or somehting like that, i don´t really understand well enough to see whats happening,my guess is that this new OS cannot run because its incompatible with the configuration my tablet has, wich the CD says it´s for Mac 6.1.0. So i wanted to ask if anyone nows how could i solve this problem, i would really apreciate it. And sorry if i made any mistakes in my writting, English is not my native language.

Redeemer Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 I'm afraid I don't know how to help you. If I were you, I'd look for some kind of driver that could fix this, but I wouldn't know where to start. I recommend registering on a forum especially for tablet users, and asking that community. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How old is this tablet? PowerPC is some pretty old tech if its referring to the Motorola processors that Apple used to use on their machines before switching to Intel...5 years ago or so? Sounds like its a driver issue, could try looking up the model of tablet online and see if there is any support for the latest OS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fana McCloud Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Intuos 4 has Mac OS X drivers on Wacom's website: http://www.wacom.com...os4&os=Mac OS X Why they had ancient PowerPC drivers and not Intel ones on a disc for an Intuos 4 is beyond me though - they aren't THAT old.
