Wacom Intuos pen pointer frozen by Apple Watch charger

My Wacom Intuos tablet has been working perfectly with Sonoma but suddenly froze. The reason was that my Apple Watch was charging very close to it. Moving it to 15cm away immediately resolved the problem.

I am only adding this information to the Community in case freezing pointers can be cleared so simply by removing a conflicting item

iMac 24″, macOS 15.1

Good point! When using wireless charging, don't have other electronics (that you are not charging with it) nearby.


Wireless chargers, including those for the Apple Watch, emit electromagnetic fields (EMF). These chargers use inductive charging technology, which relies on electromagnetic fields to transfer energy between the charging base and the device.
