Finger print software

How do I find my finger print software to register my finger print. I can see the driver is installed successfully but cant find the software itself to load and scan my finger for my files.
Secondly, my wifi is on but only showing bluetooth connection, is it the same as any other wifi connection? can I connect to any wifi around with my bluetooth connection?
Any advice will be appreciated

Hi,
by default the Fingerprint can work with some applications, but if you plan to use the Fingerprint with other applications, then I would suggest to install Client Security Solution (CSS).
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-73696
After you have installed also CSS, you need to enable CSS to work with FPR.
Here is a short introduction:
- start CSS
- on the left side click on "Fingerprint" and select "Manage" -> followi the on screen instructions and get the CSS configured with FPR
- after this is done open CSS again and go to "Password Manager"-> a new window will open and go toet Preferences->Set Preferences. A configuration window will open and make sure, that you enable it for all the apps that you can see there.
- once this is done open CSS again and go to Advanced->Manager Security policies->in this new window go through each option on the left side and make the appropriate changes to it.
For a detailed instructions and infomrations I would advice to read the CSS manual:

Let me know, if you have any specific questions.
In case this helps, you can mark this post as fixed .

Finger Print Device not found using Think Advantage Finger Print Software

3000 N100, the finger print device can not be found when trying to set up profiles. The computer had been restored to new state using the function key at startup.
I deleted programs I did not want after that but the Think Advantage was left as is, I believe. I can get as far as trying to create finger print profiles, then I get the finger print device can not be found.

Use ThinkVantage Fingerprint Software version 6.0
http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/ds036923
Although the website says it's only for Windows 8.1, actually it will work on Windows 7 as well. And 6.0 adds the feature you are talking about (version 5.9 and earlier didn't have it).

Lenovo finger print not working

Hi,
Lenovo finger print suddenly stopped working last week on my laptop. Further to this while looking for solution i came across the new update available on suppport and download page for my system (3000 N200 0796) (http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-67845).
I unintalled the lenovo finger print software and intalled a new one from above update link.
But still its not working. When i open the finger print reader i get a message saying "Failed to open the sensor" and when i try to access it via client security solution i get message saying "device is not installed"
Further to above i checked the device manager and there is no option for finger print. I thenk checked BIOS and found that under security option ther is also no option of finerpring..!!!
I think deleting the old software completely and downloading was not a good idea..
Does anyone know how to get the fingerprint option back into bios??

Hi,
I haven the same problem once I uninstalled Vista and installed XP SP3.
I was able to resolve this by following way:
1. I found in the device manager "AuthenTec Inc." device under the Universal Serial Bus controllers.
2. I opened this device and pressed the "Update driver" in the 'Driver" tab; then I installed the driver for the fingerprinter.
3. As result, the system recognize this device as Personal indentification device; and fingerprinter works properly.
Please let me know if this was helpful.

Portege R700 Finger Print Reader suddenly not recognised from OS

Hello,
I have been searching for a solution
My R700 on Win7 was working flawlessly using the finger print scanner. At some point without any reason the
hardware (finger print reader to login) was not recognized by the OS anymore.
- I tried to remove the driver software, reinstalled it
- updated it and so on resulting that the hardware was not found.
- I even removed all relevant entries from the registry - no go.
- the Authentic Finger Print software starts up, but only giving an error that the FP-reader is not present.
Is there a way to remove the stored fingerprint manually by deleting the manually.
The hardware is working according to the support. (Machine was send in)
However I do not wish to re-setup the entire machine (it is a business notebook) just to get this to work?
Any hints or step by step intro to achieve this?
I could not find a descritpion on how to remove fingerprints (cause I suspect that is the problem) manually since the software to do this does not start up.
Any input would be appreciated.
Best regards
julian

If you don't see the fingerprint hardware or unresolved devices in Device Manager then the device is either disabled in the BIOS or the fingerprint sensor is faulty or loose, or there was a liquid spill causing corrosion.

Finger Print Reader Error Code E7210005

Hi: I've just upgraded by X61 Tablet from Vista to Windows 7. I did a complete reimage of the hard drive. Installed the latest Finger Print software downloaded yesterday from the Lenovo website for 32 bit WIndows 7. No problem on install. When I try and enroll my first finger, I get an error message that says "Operation is not allowed by operating system policies. The error code is E7210005. This is an error message generated by the THankVantage Fingerprint software and not Windows 7. I need help on troubleshooting this message. I have no idea as to what operating system policies they are talking about and where it is located. I looked at the Windows Security Policy for the local machine and saw nothing that struck me as referring to this issue, but maybe I'm wrong.
Please advise and give me any suggestions. Thanks. Nile

It seems to be Lenovo's wonderful ability to code for a 64Bit Os that seems to be at issue here.Install a 32bit Vista thinkvantage software in a 64bit OS and it works.

Actually parts of the code you refer to are written by Upek and not Lenovo and there is a API so Lenovo and other manufacturers can create their own GUI. Lenovo didn't create the fingerprint software/drivers from scratch on their own, but part of it is actually from Upek with a API for Lenovo and others to make a customized GUI. As the article says the Windows 7 fingerprint software from Upek have the same problem.
Also skywalkr is correct about the statement that "built-in Administrator account is not allowed to use biometrics". That have to do with the new addition to Windows 7 "Windows Biometric Framework" (WBF). Since Vista don't use WBF that limitation is not in the Vista version of the fingerprint software. This has nothing to do with 32 or 64 bit or that Lenovo is unable to code for a 64 bit OS, but rather the limitation in WBF/Windows 7 like skywalkr already pointed out. Neither do i understand why you refer to 64 bit since Nile clearly stated that he/she is using the 32 bit version of Windows 7.

Portege R600-10Q Finger Print Utility not recognizing prints

I have a Portg R600-10Q laptop which has been upgraded to run Windows 7 Professional (32bit) using the Toshiba supplied upgrade disks.
Recently the finger print scan became unreliable so I followed my usual practice and removed the old finger prints and set about rescanning my fingers.
I find that there are three scans required for each finger. When I scan the first two times the print is immediately recognised and graded 'Good'. However, the third attempt always fails and will scan up to 8 times and then the process is terminated. This happens regardless of which finger is involved, restarting the machine, running the utility as an administrator etc.
I uninstalled the Fingerprint Utility and then reinstalled but the same issue remains.
I'd value any suggestions for getting the Fingerprint Utility working again.
Andrew

> I uninstalled the Fingerprint Utility and then reinstalled but the same issue remains.
Did you use the newest finger print software?
Please do this.
Please try the fingerprint software released for Portege R700.
There is new version which is released for Win 7 32bit and 64bit OS
PS; you should delete all fingerprints before installing new version...
Bye

Client security and finger print

I recentlyy upgraded the fingerprint software to its newest release /http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-73585) and since then the client security system says the finger print software is not installed. The client security works fine if i type the password. At window log on i can swipe the finger print and log on. On web browser the link between css and fingerprint does not work and i have to type the password
Finger print software 5.9.3.6581
Client security 8.30.0031
How can i re link both ?

Finger print sensor and SimplePass Software is not working

Hey there,
I have a HP Pavilion dv7-6c95dx and the finger print sensor and SimplePass Software is not working. I am unable to find the relevant drivers/etc from the HP website. Any advise would be appreciated. The device was purchased in the USA.
Thanks.

Hi:
I believe this driver from the dv7t-7000 will work as well as the security software to register your fingerprint.

My finger print reader for dv6-3025dx is not working: can i fix it by redownloading the software?

I was asked to download the Digital Persona Finger Print Reader for Consumer NB for my dv6-3025dx Windows 7 notebook and after that my fingerprint reader stoped working. The status has an "X" rather than a check mark, I tried redownloading it but if failed again. Is there any other way I can fix it? Thank you

HP Pavilion M7 Finger Print Reader Not Working

Hi,
I recently purchased an HP Paviolion M7.
I put an OCZ SSD in, and ended up doing a fresh install using non-HP Windows 7 (64). Using the HP Recovery Tools is simply not an option (believe me I tried).
I have everything working now, except for the Finger Print Reader. I have tried everything I can think of and could find.
I am using all the drivers/software from:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=4063&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&sw_lang=&product=5273...
I have done these things:

http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Other-Notebook-PC-Questions/HP-Pavilion-dv7-4020sa-finger-print-reader-...
And more.
I believe the issue is because Biometric Device is Unavailable to Windows, see this screenshot:
I believe the above picture causes the Authentec HP SimplePass software to not recognise the driver version, see screenshot:
Any ideas?

I am sure they are the correct drivers, they worked with the system when it was an "HP" version of Windows.
The screens work for me, here they are again:

When I installe Firefox version 4 my finger print scanner quit working. Any fixes for this?

I downloaded and installed Fire Fox 4.0 a few weeks ago. As soon as I downloaded the new software, my finger print scanner quit working. The scanner light that normally appears when ever there is a request for entering a user name or password no longer turned on and the scanner was no longer functional. I removed the new Fire Fox version and re-installed version 3.6.17. My finger print scanner is now working again.

Finger print reader and windows 8.1

Have an HP DM4T1100 notebook, Can't get finger printe reader to work with Windows 8.1. Worked with 8.0 64bit, but when upgraded to 8.1 64 bit lost the use of the Finger Print Reader. Have loaded many different drivers and software but nothing works and the finger print reader no longer "blink". Sometimes get infor saying swipe finger but the Reader is not flashing.
Need to know steps to clear all the fingerprint drivers and software to start over, hopfully with know dirivers and software that works with Windows 8.1 64 bit.

Hello,
After checking the HP Driver and Download page, for your exact notebook. Their are no available drivers for Windows 8 or 8.1. For a possible work around, you can try the 8.1 drivers for another notebook. At this point, I would suggest creating a restore point on your computer if you have not already. I have included the document 'Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8)'. Please click on the option for Create a restore point, and follow the instructions.
Once the restore point has been created. You will need to uninstall the previous drivers that you have installed for the finger print reader. I have included the steps below for uninstalling through Add and Remove Programs.
* From the Start screen type Add and Remove Programs
* Select Add and Remove Programs
* Once the list is populated look for anything like Validity driver, SimplePass, Finger Print Reader, or Biometric
* Right click on these options and select uninstall
After all the items have been uninstalled, please restart your computer. After the computer is fully back, please empty the trash.
The next step will be to install the Validty driver, and then the Fingerprint Reader software. I have included the links below for you.
'Validity Fingerprint Sensor Driver'
'AuthenTec Fingerprint Sensor Driver'
Please let me know if you are able to use the Fingerprint reader after this, thank you.

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.
