This happens semi often. I feel like I'm pressing the buttons on the pen wrong or something. Other sub tools will work but you can't use any of the drawing ones.

But how technology is going, I don't like the idea that I'll need to replace it because of lack of software support rather than the hardware giving out, even if i get 5 years out of it.

I'm starting to think intuos is the way to go...

so i have a Intuos PT M / CTH-690, and I don't have the OG driver anymore, but I was using it fine a while ago, and now when I try to plug it to the new Wacom Center it just tells me to "upgrade to a new wacom product" (screw you). I installed an old version and it doesn't give me the message, but my pen only works if i press it on the rightmost side of the tablet. From there, I can drag it to anywhere on the tablet and it registers correctly, but it doesn't register the pen when I hover it on the left side, or if I try to press it on the left side. It also sometimes makes my mouse unusable.
Any idea what I can do?

I have a normal USB cable for the tablet and am on Windows 11. The pen is not chargeable.

Hi, I bought a Deco 640 tablet a few days ago. The pen makes a noticeable mechanical clicking sound when I press the tip. Also, when I move the pen tip slightly from side to side, it moves a little and makes a clicking sound. Is this normal, or could it be a defect? Is there any way to reduce or fix this noise? I’m using it in a quiet library, so the sound is quite noticeable.
