Hi @sam1211 ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook and Bluetooth and HP Simplepass complications since doing a Windows upgrade. Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant. Just download and run the application. Just to make sure all drivers and software are updated as well.
Here is a document on troubleshooting and using Bluetooth if needed. Under the tips for finding a Bluetooth device, there is a section on making sure the wireless communication is turned on. This is an important section. 
Here is another document with some great information about Bluetooth fixes.
Here is a link to troubleshoot the HP Simplepass software.
The HP SimplePass Identity Protection Software must be updated to v8.00.57 or later. Here is a link to download the latest. You will have to uninstall the old software.
Hope this helps you with the Bluetooth and HP Simplepass.
Thanks.

  • The program vectorworks 2008 (not 2009) does not work with the new operating system Mavericks, which is a disaster because it forces us to change the program, and is very expensive. Apple should fix this problem

    Why should Apple fix the problem? Maybe you should consider NOT upgrading if an expensive piece of (obsolete) software you're running won't work with it...

  • My finger print scanner is not working

    Hi, my 5s started to act crazy. It wont recognize my print anymore despite of moisturizing my finger tips, thinking that the problem is in my skin but it did not work. So I decided to delete my print in the system thinking that it would resolve the issue, but it just make the things worst. It won't read any print of mine anymore.please help me, this annoys me all the time. Tnx

    The phone needs to train you to use Touch ID as well as you training the phone. Try deleting your fingerprints, and re-enter them. Move your finger around a little with each tap. Sometimes it helps to make two fingerprint recordings of the same finger.

  • Flash Player not working after downloading new version

    I downloaded Flash Player 10 and it does not work.I am using Windows XP and Internet Explorer. I have tried the trouble shooting. I have made sure its enabled under Active X and it does not work at all now. I have tried to download Flash Player 9 and now that will not download. I regularly use site that require Flash and I am shut down until I can figure out what is wrong. Please help.

    I have the same issue after I was prompted yesterday to upgrade my Flash player. With the new version, 2/3 of Flash pages do not work. But 1/3 do work !
    Example of page that does not work with new version of Flash :
    http://www.youtube.com/  (the whole site)
    http://www.adobe.com/fr/products/flashplayer/  (Adobe's official Flash page !)
    Example of page that does work with new version of Flash :
    http://www.voleursdechevaux.be/page_flash.html
    On first glance, I would say that Flash loaded through JavaScript fails. Only Flash embedded through HTML works. But I am not competent enough to discover why.
    Here is my current configuration (the version test at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html works well) :
    Player Version : WIN 10.0.22.87
    Debug Player : no
    Operating System : Vista
    Browser : Internet Explorer 8
    Locale : French

    same issue here... And a restore didn't do any good either.
    Try backing up your information to iTunes, and Restore your devices as new with no content on it what-so-ever. If the issue persists after that, this may be a hardware issue. Check your Mic's for debris, and remove the case you have on the device as well to see if you have the same results. Then contact Apple Support if all else fails.

  • Tecra M5: finger print sensor is not working properly since a drink was spilt into the keyboard

    My finger print sensor is not working properly since a drink was spilt into the keyboard. When booting up, it automatically "fails" 5 times in a row (without any attempts to swipe a finger), then defaults to password entry to boot the machine's hard drive.
    This is not a problem and all i want to do is disable the finger print sensor, but cannot work out how to do this. I've tried uninstalling the driver, which I seemed to do without any problems, but when rebooting, the sensor still seems active, and still goes through the same process.
    Everything else works fine and this is just a minor niggle, but I'd like to remove the annoyance of it beeping at me 5 times while it does its thing!
    Can anyone tell me how I completely disable it?
    Thank you.

    Have you removed the fingerprint software? If yes check if in device manager is listed some unknown device. Please post the result.
    Maybe you can try to disable this unknown device and it will not be recognized as new hardware every time when you start the notebook.

  • Finger print reader does not work

    i followed the directions and my print was scanned, rescanned,and the edges were scanned and accepted but the reader does not react when the phone is locked....i deleated and rescanned and followed all directions which accepted my finger print....once again thereader does not unlock the phone...any suggestions?

    I looked for software and found a suggestion which I down loaded. Now the finger print reader does not work either on Internet Explorer or on Firefox. So I had to do a reset to an early time to get rid of that soft ware. We are back to where I started, with the finger print reader working fine on Explorer 11 and it does not work at all on FireFox. There must be some work around, has this not occurred with other folks.

  • It has been not more than 10 days since i bought iphone 5s 32gb and the finger print scanner is not detecting the prints.what to do??is it an issue with the device or iOS??

    It has been not more than 10 days since i bought iphone 5s 32gb and the finger print scanner is not detecting the prints.what to do??is it an issue with the device or iOS??

    Standard practices:
    Restart the device (power off completely, then back on) - retest.
    Reset (hold sleep wake and home buttons until apple logo appears) - you can try this, but it is most useful when your device is frozen.
    Restore to factory settings - retest.
    Make an appointment at an Apple retail store genius bar if the above did not resolve the issue.
    HTH.

    Thank you for your help!

    Did try to restore "as new device" without using the backup after that?
    Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo coes back again?
