    This would be so much more helpful if it had audio instructions, if it went slower, and also if the cursor was highlighted. There's no explanation why you set it up this way. Kind of confusing.

    I am sorry, but the majority of Mac users are on the newest build. How do you connect the X-Pen to a 2016 and up MacBook Pro?

    For all y’all Mac users the same thing happened to me, all y’all got to do is press the folder that u downloaded from XP pen and right click and press rename. Don’t erase the name they gave u, add in “.zip” in it. It should work then.

    I'm having a hard time getting the screen to show up on the tablet. I had to get a lightening cable to hdmi adapter. Everything is plugged up and when I use the pen on the tablet it will control the screen. But the program won't show on the tablet

    So I just got my tablet today, and I can't get it to map onto a single display for the life of me. I try using it on photoshop but it keeps trying to control the stuff on my other screen. I've tried using the control panel to bind it, but it doesn't seem to do anything. How do I get it to stay on it's own display?

      I have exactly the same issue, when I touch the tablet sceen with the stylus, it keeps clicking on my macbook screen, same on issue on an iMac... I have to duplicate my Mac screen but I can't separate both of otherwise the tablet itself is useless... I'm disapointing, I receveid it today and it's impossible to use it correctly :/

    • @DioJeans
      @DioJeans 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@midmidori I did manage to somewhat "resolve" the issue, only it seemingly involves a mixture of constantly closing the utility software and reopening it and changing the active area around a couple times as well as changing the display setting between duplicating and extending. Eventually, it just seems to decide that it wants to work the way I want it to, and it frustrates me that once I'm done and shut the device off, the issues arise the next time I go to use it.

    After calibration my screen goes dark, then after I unplugged the xpen I lost my background picture on my pc!

They invited a specialist, he said that there is no network, that the laptop does not read the graphics tablet, that the cable does not work. Could the cable not work? Or is there another problem? If the tablet did not work, then it did not turn on, then from what we can not turn on the laptop, please tell me.

      @Zakiir Osman: do you mean as a display to interact with in the program? Such as drag and switch between panels/options? It works like a mouse according to Xp-pen so I'd assume so, maybe no drag perhaps. But don't expect a full experience beyond that I'm afraid 😔get something you know works or ask around more before purchasing this. Good luck.
