I have that same problem a few times a day. I end up having to click and click different things for 20 or 30 seconds.

Or I’ll try to add kerning in the tool bar box and I can’t. I click and click and click. So I click something else, and then click back in and it’s fine.

It is frustrating. Originally I thought it was my mouse or something, but I don’t think it is.

I can’t offer any suggestions except to grin and bear it, and try not to start cursing and swearing and scaring your co-workers (like I do).

You may get advised to rebuilding your preferences, but I don’t think that’s the problem.

I don’t use a Wacom, so I don’t know about that. I’m just on my Mac and I have those issues.

EDIT: And others at work have also experienced this.
