Bamboo fun tablet pen not working
It's only been a few months since I got the Bamboo fun but today, after accidentally dropping the pen, it did not work again. The eraser tip is still working, just not the nub part. It does not click or move when I hover it around the tablet area. Please help.
P.S. Do I just change the pen nub? If so, how do I change it?

To change to nib not nub, you get tweezers and firmly grip the tip and pull then slide a new one in

GUESS WHAT???
it's very easy to fix. most likely, you used the nib too long without changing it, and wore it down;
Step 1: either get a pair of tweezers and your pen or just get your pen, for you can also use your teeth.
Step 2: if you're using tweezers, then just squeeze them on the nib of the pen (the part that looks like the point) and pull. if you're using you're teeth, then do the same. bite down and pull. this may take a few tries depending on how much of the nub is still sticking out, and how strong you are.
Step 3: once you've gotten the nib out, take the new one and push it in so that the flat side goes into the hole and the rounded side is sticking out just like a real pen. if you messed up, just pull out the nib and put it in the right way. i had the same problem, and this is how i got mine to work again. GOOD LUCK !

You've broken something inside the pen. This blog helped me get mine working again: http://wishidknownthat.blogspot.com/2009/04/fixing-wacom-bamboo-pen.html
I also have the same problem,my eraser is working but not the nib?
I've had the intuos and it worked for years without incident. I have the bamboo and after only a few months it's having issues. WTF is up with that?! I've already changed the nub out once. It worked fine for a while but now... I have to double click to get it to release anything it grabs onto. As a graphic artist where precision is involved... that's very bad.
