Digital Persona fingerprint reader

I have a HDX 18 t. It came with windows vista x 64 and I have upgraded to windows 7 x 64. After the upgrade the integrated digital persona fingerprint reader is no longer in effect. The fingerprint reader is not detected. I tried to uninstall, reinstall and update the drivers. Currently, I have the latest version of the software for the installed fingerprint (4.11.3826) reader. The icon for the fingerprint reader has 'x' on it which indicates that the drive is not detected.

I've already sent to the post:

http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/operating-systems-and-software/DigitalPersona-validity-fingerprint-and-...

I followed the instructions for part A on install fingerprint driver digital validity and the DigitalPersona Personal software. However, after my computer restarted, a message appeared and said: "the fingerprint reader could not be detected. Reinstall it using the recovery of applications and drivers disk provided with your system. »

Previously, I tried unistalling digital persona completely and reinstall it from the driver and application recovery disk. However, this does not work any more.

I think the recovery disk does not work because it was made for windows vista. The only way (at least AFAIK), I was able to successfully use this disc would be to reinstall vista and then reinstall the driver and application recovery disk. However I would no longer have windows 7 which I've already paid for.

I also tried to contact Digital Persona about the issue online, I had no great success however.

If someone can tell me at least who can help me, I would be very happy. I tried several different solutions many times, and it becomes frustrating. I just want to use the fingerprint reader that's installed in my computer. I want to keep windows 7, so I won't downgrade for the fingerprint reader. This problem persisted for several months now and I want to be treated.

I have enough confidence in my computer skills to be able to follow the instructions given for me online, but I am not above having a technician help me. So if it's necessary I would force quickly. The only thing I want to avoid shipping my computer anywhere since I use everyday to school.

I apologize for the length of the post. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

After many days a lot of work, I finally found the solution for VFS301 of a validity sensor works with Digital Persona on Win 7 64 bit because it is supposed to.

NOT the drivers INSTALL WBF all sites or drivermax... These drivers allow only logging in Win7 and no website, sign in.

(1) first of all UNINSTALL all software and the DDK (Driver validity)...

Make sure that also go to the control panel =>-online Validity Sensor Device Manager

  • Persona fingerprint reader digital software of Vostro 3550 incompatible with Windows 8

    I just downloaded the newly released Windows 8 iso and run the compatibility test. All material is supported in some way, even if there is mention to get the new drivers from Dell. However, the fingerprint reader is listed as being incompatible with Windows 8. I went to the homepage of the Digital Persona and they no longer support consumer products. Result is, I fight a machine from Dell which is less than 2 years old and is loaded with a piece of software is no longer supported by the vendor. Anyone have any suggestions on alternative software that will allow the fingerprint reader to work with Windows 8?

    In my first post, I linked to a fingerprint reader driver.  I included the link in the word "here".  What I am asking is for you to run this installation for the driver and let me know what happens with it.  I am sure that the pilot when it was originally installed does not for some reason any and that one of the strangers/other devices is the fingerprint reader.  As the status message on other devices, the drivers for them are not installed.  If one of them is the fingerprint reader, then by installing the driver that I linked should restore the fingerprint reader.

  • The Digital Persona does not detect the fingerprint reader in Windows 7

    I have upgraded from Vista to Windows 7 Pro (full installation). Now, DigitalPersona does not detect the fingerprint reader. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the driver and the program, does not. Any ideas?

    Hi Cankermechanic,

    I suggest that you try to update the drivers supplied by Device Manager and check.

    See the link for update drivers: update a hardware driver that is not working properly: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Update-a-driver-for-hardware-that-isn ' t-work properly

    If the problem persists, I would recommend that you uninstall drivers and reinstall the drivers from the site Web of Digital Persona, if that is helpful.

    If the problem persists, I suggest that visit you the manufacturer for further assistance from the link below:
    http://www.askpersona.com/

    I also recommend that you contact the manufacturer of the computer for further assistance on this issue.

    Thank you, and in what concerns:

  • Digital persona not to find the device of the fingerprints of validity

    Hello, I have a Dell laptop with Windows 7 Professional and a validity vfs300 fingerprint sensor.

    In Device Manager, the biometric device displays fine without problems in the form 'Validity Sensor.

    (driver version number 2.1.0.2)

    My problem is:

    I have DigitalPersona Personal Software updated to version 4.11.3825

    (the most common starting from 04/05/10) and it will not detect the validity sensor.

    Also, the choice of the biometric device under the Control Panel does not exist.

    Honestly, I wouldn't even need DigitalPersona if Validity Sensor was able to appear in Control Panel of Windows 7, but I can say that this new feature is half baked.  I guess it's bad drivers.

    I need help. Thank you.

  • I recently updated my fingerprint scanner fingerprint digital persona and it stop working.

    Updated my fingerprint reader and it became dysfunctional, followed their instructions to mitigate the problem, but I don't have the disk to re - install the fingerprint reader, so I wonder if there is a way to do it without the disk?

    Hello

    ·         What is the brand and model of the computer?

    If your fingerprint reader does not work, an application or an updated driver may be available for download from the centre for maintenance or updating Windows.

    For more information about Action Center, see what is Action Center?

    For more information about Windows Update, see Windows Installer in Windows 7 updates.

    If you are not able to find a driver using Action Center or Windows update, you should contact your computer or the manufacturer of the fingerprint reader for drivers that are compatible with this version of Windows.

  • "Digital persona" finger print work with Firefox password manager?

    My computer has a fingerprint reader that I use to store my passwords to log in to Web sites. It works with internet explore, but have not been able to use it with Firefox. When you try to use the message says 'the address has not been heard. " "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the Protocol (daq) is not associated with any program."
    My software has been loaded on the computer and is named "digital Persona".

    I see in your list of "More system details" (thanks!) that the DigitalPersona extension is disabled. This indicates that the extension contains a list of compatible versions of Firefox and your version is not included. This is not a new problem with this software, unfortunately.

    In March 2011, another volunteer found this:

    "Please contact DigitalPersona. There will be no update for DigitalPersona Personal releases in the future. There will be no update for Firefox 4 and Internet Explorer 9. If they work they work, if they do not work with DPPersonal, then you'll have to decide to keep DPPersonal and waive 4 Firefox or IE 9, or vice versa. DigitalPersona leaves the consumer market and focuses on business applications. In fact, DigitalPersona Personal will be more sustained after mid-April of this year. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Regards, team Tech.

    Some volunteers have suggested to test a different extension: Fingerfox (SE). It claims to support DigitalPersona 2.0. An updated version is available from the Web site: http://amews.net/products/fingerfox/download/. If you try it, may realize you if it works?

    I have a HP DV7-6c27cl (Pavilion) - purchased 11/2012.

    Updated from 8 to 64-bit Windows to purchase and fingerprint scanner quit job with TrueVision HD webcam.  HP driver update for webcam works perfectly - running.

    Software HP SimplePass is responsible for the current 5.20.233a (DigitalPersona) version.

    East went to HP and downloaded the new driver (SP58834) for the fingerprint reader.  We sought their updates using the specific model of this laptop and he gave me this driver up-to-date with.  Software starts but no joy on the drive...

    Simple pass still said "the fingerprint reader is not connected.  "Connect to the reader."

    Earlier today when trying a number of different patches I had a tap of biometrics in my device manager and another in the Panel... on one of my attempts to find a solution, I deleted these.  Is gone now.

    Don't know what to do from here.  It doesn't seem to be any solution on the Web Digital Persona site either.

    Please help and thank you.

  • HP Probook 4530 s fingerprint reader does not.

    I just bought HP Probook 4530 s Ci5

    6 GB of RAM

    740 GB hard

    1 Gb Radeon graphics card

    Win7 64 bit operating system

    I downloaded the driver and digital persona software from the HP Web site, my system Device Manager shows that the driver is correctly installed (called devices biometric, and under it Validity sensor, its listed version is VFS471). But on windows log on that is showing and then Player Detection is not detected. Same thing is happening in the software (digital persona). I tried different software in different websites.  Please indicate if you know something NEW. I said something new because I saw many people on many sites looking for this problem. But the problem is there.

    When I run the validity sensor driver installation, it will install fine.

    Then I run the last digital persona software it says on his system ("the system cannot check that the fingerprint readers is installed"). And that this is an option to SKIP this part. When I do, it completed the installation and restart the computer. After that the same problem "drive not detected" on windows to connect.

  • Digital Persona software stops working on the Pavilion dv8-1250ea

    Hello!

    I noticed that Digital Persona, the software for the JJUJ scanner integrated on my HP Pavilion dv8-1250ea stops working whenever the laptop wakes from standby or hybernation mode. On the login screen, the icon on the right referring to the fingerprint reader warning flashing at a rate of about twice a second and the following note says "fingerprint reader not detected". So I'll type the password manually, but the cursor in the field password prevents jump at the beginning of the field at the same pace, and it seems as if there is a current discount. The only way to log is press the 'end' key immediately before each character in the password, which is a disappointment.

    I recently downloaded an update for Digital Persona, but it has not solved the problem.

    Any ideas how to fix? Thanks in advance!

    Here is a work around, see if it works... You will need to go to Device Manager, depending on what hardware you have; AuthenTec orvalidity... Double-click on it... who will launch the Properties Windows... Click on tab power management... this tab, uncheck the box that reads "allow the computer to turn off the device to save power"... and see if it works... ' "

    Hi Mikey,

    Looks like you're running the Digital Persona of SimplePass flavor.

    Two things to consider / try, in order.

    If the reset works, you don't have to reinstall the driver...

    • Hard reset
    • Reinstall the driver

    Hard Reset:

    Sometimes, all you need to do is the computer suddenly.  This method works for a variety of connection and "glued" program issues.

    • Disconnect all the external devices first.
    • Remove the AC power and battery
    • Press and hold the power button while in the minus 30 seconds
    • Reinstall the power supply for the first start only * see Note
    • Power on - connect
    • Next time you shut down the system, replace the battery.

    * Note: You can ignore the little battery aside.  If you wish, replace the battery the first time and do it with her.

    =====================================================================================

    The pilot, from your Internet site:

    Validity fingerprint sensor Driver sp52354 V2.1.0.2

    • Install the validity sensor Driver installation package: it if called sp*.exe - the package will be most likely located in the downloads folder.  If you have control of "Admin", you can highlight the package and "double-click on ' to install it, otherwise just right-click, select"Run as Administrator"and install.

    I hope this helps!

    It's my pleasure to help.
