So I haven't used my Wacom Tablet (4x5 Graphire4) for a few months at least. I went to use it just yesterday for the first time on my new iMac, and right from the get-go, things were really off:

Moving the stylus close to the tablet registered as a mouse-click, instead of actually tapping the tablet. This makes it virtually impossible to move the cursor around. I tried changing this feature within the Pen Tablet driver menu; no dice.

At first I figured it may not be compatible with my Mac for some reason (I'm new to Mac and am still learning the little quirks). I plugged it into my Windows laptop - which it had always worked flawlessly on - and I had the same problem. It's really frustrating how it would just stop working one day.

Has anyone else ever heard of this? Do I just need to order another shoddy stylus, or scrap the tablet altogether?? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Do you have the newest driver? They just released one in the last month, so I would try uninstalling the driver and starting fresh.

Yeah, I tried all the drivers available on the site (around 4 or 5 I believe) on both machines, still no luck.
