I just started working with an Intuos3, using it in many places to get the feel of it, clicking, double-clicking, etc. Works nicely! However, in Photoshop CS5 and Mini-Bridge, it's almost impossible to use the pen to open folders and open images. I will use the side buttons to click, or tap the tablet to click. I'm not sure if I'm tapping too fast, not fast enough, or what. The most consistent way to do it is right-click with the side switch and select open.
But why can't I "click" on a folder to open it, or an image to open it in Phot
oshop? Any thoughts would be welcome!
I have an Intuos4, and although I rarely use it it does open folders and puts pic in the viewer.
Go to your Wacom setup and make sure you have the pen set up correctly. There are lots of options for buttons, tip and so forth.
