Trouble using my trackpad/mouse in conjunction with Wacom tablet

[rich2005]

Quote:..My problem is that I can't control my stylus options through my laptop's trackpad. If I select a tool or change the settings for a tool with my trackpad, it changes the tool and its settings for the trackpad, and not for the Wacom stylus

I know nothing about OSX however

Have you tried enabling share tools in Edit -> Preferences -> Input Devices
