  • Configuration required to use the fingerprint reader

    I have a dv6tQE delivered later this week and I'm looking into how to configure the fingerprint reader.  I'm interested the FR for projecting my fingerprint with the plethora of passwords that I now keep in a Word document hyperlink.  Too much memorize.  I'm not interested in the security feature that requires a logon or a fingerprint whenever I start my computer.  I usually push on the button and then perform several tasks to something else and come back to the computer, wait until it is ready to roll without the need for an additional activity on my part.

    The User Guide PDF downloaded States in part:

    "In order to use the fingerprint reader, you must configure a user account with a password on the computer. This account allows you to log on to your computer with a simple touch of the designated finger. Alternatively, you can use the fingerprint reader to fill in the password on Web sites and other programs that require a login. See using the fingerprint software for instructions. After you have created your identity from fingerprints, you can configure single sign-on... »

    It will be necessary for me to set up a user account for my login or can I skip that part and use the NOF for passwords only?  In addition, there is a link to the FR software guide?

    I have a Pavilion dv7 - 6157cl laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.  A second person may also use the player?  If this is not the case, the password feature can be used by someone else?  I need a complete and detailed instruction for the fingerprint reader.  What player software that is mentioned in the PDF manual?  No software is given.  I don't know where to start.

    Thank you

  • Pavilion dv7 6051ea: how to get the fingerprint reader works on Windows 10

    Just upgraded to Windows 7 Pro for Windows 10 Pro. The fingerprintreader has stopped working. I find the possibility to set up, but the installation is grayed out as long as no driver available. Can't find one on any forum support? Anyone else having this problem and sorted it please?

    On August 11. I've been running Windows 10 updates on a daily basis since the upgrade and now after a reboot of the fingerprint reader has started working? and remembered my impression as well. I guess that Microsoft dropped in a fix for this (which works for me) then maybe something to try?

  • How to fix the fingerprint reader of the problems of compatibility with WIN 7 Sony Vaio VGN-SZ260P

    The fingerprint reader does not work on my laptop Sony Vaio VGN SZ240P since I've updated from Windows XP.  There must be a problem somewhere online.  Everyone fell on this problem yet? And if so how do solve you this problem?

    Hello Jason,

    This will be a little problem. The only available fingerprint driver is for XP, the operating system on this computer comes with. There is a driver at this location: http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/swu-download.pl?mdl=VGNSZ240P&upd_id=2134&os_group_id=13 which works on Vista with "loss of functionality.

    So, if you have a 32-bit Windows 7 system (it will not work in a 64-Bit environment) do the following: download the XP / Vista driver and install it. Once its installed go to the program icon or the file itself and right click on it, selecting Properties in the window that opens. When the new window opens, go to the top row of tabs and select the Compatibility tab. When that shows check the box run in compatibility and mode in the drop-down list that appears, select Windows 7. Then select Apply and after that finishes select apply to all users. That brings up the same menu for all users - check the compatibility in the Windows 7 box, click on apply, then click OK and click OK.

    If something does not work as I've described, post here with details and I'll try to work through it, with you. Let me know if this solves the problem for you.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite Pro S500-10F: how to disable the fingerprint reader

    We just purchased a portable Satellite Pro S500-10 which has the fingerprint reader. Does anyone know how we can disable this facility of the laptop, we do not remove program only disable the installation.

    Thank you

    You can disable it in Device Manager. If it's not ideal, I guess you could send the laptop to an ASP to have the fingerprint reader physically disconnected.

  • Portege M700: Cannot use the fingerprint reader after update for Firefox 3

    Hey

    I have a Toshiba Portege M700 Tablet and with the truesuite software on a fingerprint reader and password Bank plugin.

    It's all working fine and dandy with firefox 2.
    Then last night I went and updated for firefox 3 and now I can't log in to Web sites with the fingerprint reader.

    No error messages, nothing. I can say that the truesuite or Bank password software is not detecting firefox 3. I've updated to the latest version that I could find, 2.0.2.0.

    I found this thread by telling me the process of update of firefox it breaks and I should completely uninstall and reinstall firefox, which I did.
    That didn't fix it.

    Then I completely uninstalled and reinstalled truesuite. That did not help either.
    Its still broken.

    Anyone know a workaround or a way to fix this, or should I wait and see if there is an updated version of the password database? (I find it unlikely because this isn't really a standard program)

    Hello

    I think that the new Firefox version is not fully tested and possibly it s not completely compatible with the 3rd party applications.
    I remember the same problems with older versions of firefox. Finally, it has been resolved.

    But why you don t use internet explore? As far as I know the fingerprint works without a problem

    In any case if you want to continue to use the browser firefox 3 so I think that the only solution is to wait for an update.

  • I want to know how to use the fingerprint, that I had to my notes

    I want to know how I put the finger impression that I would be in settings on my notes please

    Not quite sure I understand what you are wanting to do.

    There is no way to use the fingerprints Notes ID secure. There is no real way to even set a password for the default Notes app.

    If you use a 3rd party notes App that claims to support this feature, then you should tell us that one.

    There is no way to integrate the stands of fingerprint ID Notes like her.

    This is a feature which will come with the next update iOS: iOS 9.3.

    Thanks to anypats for the clarification.

  • 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:

  • Portege R200: How to reset the fingerprint reader?

    Hi, I got a damaged probably fixable Portege R200 (no, it's not stolen, legitimate sales). The machine does not start in its current state. If I fixed and find the fingerprint reader enabled, is it possible to erase it and start again (I'm not interested in the contents of the existing drive, I'm happy to format and reinstall a new OS image)

    Referring to the Toshiba are OK if that's what it takes, but I don't want to buy and spend more money if it is completely non-recoverable because of the safety lock fixing. Any advice or info much appreciated

    Thank you

    Hello

    To the extent where I knew the Omnipass Fingerprint Reader utility is responsible for this security.
    This software is to be found in the control panel.
    You can add and remove profiles (user) and set the settings to encrypt/decrypt the contents of the hard drive.

    In my opinion he has no influence on the process of starting...
