IPhone 5C with fingerprint scanner

Apple has sent me an invitation to pre order this iPhone. However I have a huge concern, I have no finger or toe prints. Is there a way to work around this? I don't know who to ask about this.
Thank you,
Martha

Yes, the 5S has the fingerprint scanner.
And, any network news story that has a headline that starts, "Should you fear....." is just an attempt to generate page views by fearmongering.
Best of luck.
P.S. Yes, I read the story and it's actually fairly balanced. But there's still no excuse for that sort of headline.

Can more than one person use an iPhone 5s with fingerprint id?

Can the iPhone 5s recognize two different fingerprints? In other words can my daughter use it to take a picture of the family or make a phone call on my phone?

Yes it can.

Fingerprint scanner issue with Win 7 and Satellite Pro A300

SORRY MODEL IS A300.
Upgraded/overlayed Vista to Windows 7 Professional and have found fingerprint scanner not working.
Unable to remove program and wont accept fresh install of fingerprint scanner or even new fingerprint to be scanned. (Old Vista program working in background somehwere?)
Is the fingerprint scanner which was installed under Vista now not compatible with WIndows 7.
There seems to be no upgrades or downloads for Fingerprint Drivers for Windows 7 as yet.

Hi mate
To be honest I doubt that Win 7 drivers would be published for this oldie.
I mean the Satellite Pro A30 is a older series and even Vista drivers were not published for this model row
I searched on the Toshiba European driver page but I found only the W2k, Win XP drivers for this unit
So if you want to use Win 7 on this notebook, then you need to collect the drivers at your own hand and this would be the same with the fingerprint reader. Maybe the driver designed and released for other series would work.
It looks like Toshiba is in progress of driver release for different series you could take a look to the different series and could try the drivers.

I have an iphone 5s and i just got the 7.0.4 update. Now i don't have the option to have a fingerprint scanner. Has anyone had this same problem? If so, why is that and what did you do about it?

My fingerprint scanner will not work with Firefox 4.

I used to be able to use my fingerprint scanner to log into all of the websites I use like Facebook, YouTube, Yahoo etc... But now since I updated to Firefox 4 it doesn't work anymore. The program that I use is called Digital Persona. How do I fix this issue?

Another user got this from Digital Persona. <br />
"Thank you for contacting DigitalPersona. There will be no update releases for DigitalPersona Personal in the future. There will be no updates for Firefox 4 nor Internet Explorer 9. IF they work they work, if they do not work with DPPersonal, then you will have to decide to either keep DPPersonal and forgo Firefox 4 or IE 9, or vice versa. DigitalPersona is leaving the consumer market and is focusing on business applications. In fact, DigitalPersona Personal will not longer be supported after Mid-April of this year. We apologize for any inconvenience this might cause. Sincerely, Tech Team "
You could try this extension. <br />

My fingerprint scanner DOES NOT work with V4.0?

My HP Fingerprint scanner stopped working after installing V4.0?
I use it to log into MANY sites and now your new browser stopped it?

Definitely a make-it or break-it situation for me because I use my fingerprint reader for everyyyyything. It also doesn't work on Google Chrome, so I guess I'll be switching back to IE until it gets fixed...

Fingerprint Scanner no longer working in Windows 10

Hi, I just updated from Windows 7 to the Windows 10 technical preview (10130). The fingerprint scanner on my laptop no longer works. In Windows 7 when I used it with LastPass, it worked well. Now, it does not seem to register a swipe. I tried to grab the latest drivers from the HP support site, but that did not seem to solve the issue. Product number: A3E82AV Thanks.

Hi , I understand that you are having some troubles with the fingerprint reader on your system, after installing the Windows 10 tech preview. You may want to try updating to the current build which is 10162. Each update tends to have a series of fixes and new features, ( and sometimes a few more issues). Currently the only drivers for Windows 10 tech preview, are a part of the operating system. Also please read the following post Welcome to the HP Windows® 10 Technical Preview discussion board. by . It includes general information about the Tech Preview as well as links to the various Microsoft pages for preview. Also if you wish to get the free upgrade to the release version of Windows 10, when it comes out, you will probably want to go back to your original factory operating system, to qualify for it. I hope this helps.

Hi,
See if you can access the notebook in Safe Mode as follows.
Shut down the notebook. Tap away at f8 as you start the notebook to enter Windows Recovery Console. Use the arrow keys to select Safe Mode and hit enter.
If you can access your Admin account in this mode, click the Start Menu, click All Programs, click Accessories, click System Tools and launch System Restore. Pick a restore point before the SimplePass update and then proceed with the restore process. When complete, Windows will reboot as normal. See if your original password/finger scan now works.
Hope it works..

Can't Log in to Windows using the fingerprint scanner.

Hi,
I've had my HP ENVY MJ-j120dx Coe i7 (Windows 8.1 64-bit), product number E8A11UA#ABA for about a year now, and I did a full system wipe using the recovery software that was built in. Before the wipe the fingerprint scanner worked perfectly, however after the wipe the built-in fingerprint scanner no longer works for me to log-in to windows. The device is listed in the manager and is functioning fine. I can use it to scan my fingerprint and register it in the Accounts tab of PC settings. However it does not work to unlock windows. I don't have the message about fingerprint sign-in has been disabled or anything. And I can use it with HP Simple Pass and it works fine, the light to the left of the scanner lights up. But when I try to sign-in to windows it doesn't light up at all or register that I'm swiping my finger acrossed it. Any suggestions to a solution?

Load the default settings in the BIOS, shut down the notebook and then restart it and go back into the BIOS to ensure that the Biometric sensor (fingerprint scanner) has been ebabled.

Lenovo B570 Fingerprint scanner not responding/is gone and other issues

Hi,
I've been having some issues lately with my laptop. It comes with a fingerprint scanner, but as of yesterday is stopped working. Normally I can login by swiping my finger, but now it doesn't even show up. It usually has 3 users slots on the login screen. Mine, my sisters, and another slot for the fingerprint scanner. Now that third one doesn't even show up. My fingerprint scanner isn't reading anything at all, nor is it even showing up in many places. I have no idea what could have caused this. Any help?
I'm running Windows 7 64bit on my Lenovo B570.
I'm not sure if it's related, but when I went to check my drivers to see if it was a driver issue, I found that a bunch of hardware was not working due to driver issues. They wouldn't let me update, giving me a Code 31 error, saying that the file could not be found. The ones that aren't working are listed below.
Microsoft 6to4 Adapter
Microsoft ISATAP Adapter
Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface
WAN Miniport (IKEv2)
WAN Miniport (IP)
WAN Miniport (IPv6)
WAN Miniport (L2TP)
WAN Miniport (Network Monitor)
WAN Miniport (PPPOE)
WAN Miniport (PPTP)
WAN Miniport (SSTP)
If anyone could help me fix this, I would be eternally grateful.

Satellite P300 PSPCCA - fingerprint scanner malfunction

I have had my p300 for a little over 8 months know and have been using the fingerprint scanner along with the bundled software to login and to protect a VERY large amount of data personal and work related documents.
And yesterday when i wanted to access some schematics for work i opened the folder and right clicked on the file clicked file unprotection the little box with the finger print popped up said scan fingerprint i did so and it said scan too short.
I scanned again and again and again same result each time.
What do i do im thinking of sending it in for service to have the reader/scanner replaced.
I have tried reinstalling the software and i restored the entire partition from a back up from two weeks ago but with no results.
It still says too short.
Is their anything i can do on my end so i dont lose my laptop again for 6 weeks (yes it took them that long to service my laptop and in the end i still had to go pick it up from the repair centre)

Hi buddy
I found this Toshiba FAQ:
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB9802O50000R01.htm
This doesnt provide an solution for your issue but it provide a info about the files which are protected by fingerprint.
The point is that if you would try to reinstall the OS and would move the files to other location then the files cannot be accessed anymore and you will not be able to unprotect them anymore :(
I have no idea why your fingerprint reader does not read your fingerprint. Maybe there is something wrong with the sensor or something like that
I think its not a software issue since you can receive and message from fingerprint saying the scan was too short therefore Im thinking its related to a sensor or scanner.
Hmm it would be interesting to know if the fingerprint would functions after the system recovery but this would means that whole HDD would be formatted and you would lose the files

T430 doesn't resume correctly via fingerprint scanner

Hello, I have a pretty new T430 and occasionally (about 30% of time time) when I try to resume from hiberation or sleep via the fingerprint scanner, it will start to boot, maybe even show the desktop for a brief second, but then stop on a black screen. The cursor is visible and active, the fan and drive are running, but that's it. The only thing I can do is hold down the power button to force a shut down and boot again.
I'm running Windows 8, and I hoped that downloading the new driver from http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS029769 would fix this, but it hasn't. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I posted the same exact issue yesterday, but somehow my post is gone.
I have a T510 and mine constantly does this (every time, never fails). I've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers multiple times with no resolution. When I do a fingerprint login, it logs me in, shows the desktop and all active content/windows, and then goes right back to the fingerprint screen.
The only way to get it to "stick" (not go right back to the lock screen) is to quickly click and focus the mouse on some application/area within the desktop, as soon as it's visible for the split second that it's shown.
*NOTE*: Mine happens on login, not just resume. If my screen is locked because of idle and I try to log back in using the fingerprint reader this happens every time.

Is there a fingerprint scanner in the next iPad?

Hello,I want to know that if will there a fingerprint scanner on the next iPad or not?
What do you expect?

Apple does not comment on unannounced products and this forum is for support for people with existing products, not speculation. But there are plenty of Apple sites on the web you with forums suitable for speculation so try googling.

Solution for fingerprint scanner failure after ThinkVantage upgrade!

Hi Everyone,
I keep seeing a number of posts about problems with the fingerprint scanner after you let the ThinkVantage updater run and update the fingerprint software. I found a solution last week and it has been working flawlessly since then. I posted it here:
http://forums.lenovo.com/lnv/board/message?board.id=T_Series_Thinkpads&thread.id=19388
However here is are the details:
I ran into the same problem, however I found a solution that has worked for me. I went into the control panel and open programs and features. What I noticed was that there were two different versions of the fingerprint software installed. I uninstalled both of them, rebooting when required until they were gone. I then downloaded the latest version of the fingerprint software from here: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-70598
After installing it, my scanner is working like a charm! Hopefully this helps you out as well!
Cheers!

Looks like some magic (i.e., simple full system restart) helped. After that ACPI looks normal. Some errors still are in dmesg, but seemingly not critical.

Fingerprint scanner not working_Can't re-install fingerprint scanner driver on my dv6-1080el

Hi all!
I'm facing a really annoying issue with the fingerprint scanner on my hp dv6-1080el.
I recently switched to Windows 7 professional 64 bit (3 weeks ago) and installed all the drivers needed (fingerprint scanner included).
After few days in which the systems was perfectly working, following a windows automatic update -I guess- the fingerprint scanner stop working. Then, I tried to re-install the driver (original one downloaded from hp site: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-75502-3&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&... but every time I do that, I got this error message:
An error occurred during the installation of assembly
'policy.8.0.Microsoft.VC80.CRT.type="win32policy",version="8.0.50727.762"publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",processorArchiteture="amd64"'.
Please refer to Help and Support for more information.
Obviously, before doing that, I uninstalled the device in the "device manager" and then, once the system is rebooted, windows automatically install (successfully) the driver for the biometric device and according to what written in the device status the device is "working properly".
Actually I cannot even see the fingerprint scanner icon when I log on to the system, so the device is clearly not working.
Can someone tell me how to solve this issue?
Thanks in advance to everybody can help me on this!

Hi @Anni_V
Welcome to the HP Forums!
It is a terrific place to find answers.
For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
I grasp that you updated your system to Windows 7 professional. All was working well until an automated Windows update was installed and now the fingerprint reader is not working.
You have tried to reinstalling the original driver but receive an error when trying to uninstall it.
Would you try deleting the driver and not uninstalling it.
There is also a Digital Persona Fingerprint Reader Software(null) ,have you tried deleting/uninstalling and reinstalling it?
If the issue remains, as it was working until the update was installed you can try a restore or removing that particular update.
Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7)
To view the installed updates go to the control panel/programs and features/view installed updates.
If you believe the updates caused the issue you can
If the recovery partition is still intact you could try reinstalling the driver from it. Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 7)
I hope this helps!
