Newbie needs help comprehending CSS Password Manager functions

Hello All:
I own a TP W500 4062-27U running Windows 7 Ultimate. The computer is trouble-free.
I am seeking a solution to the following need: An application that will securely remember my passwords for various websites, etc. and enable me to log in using the fingerprint reader or similar.
I am aware that Lenovo provides both Fingerprint Reader software and Client Security Solution software, but I don't know whether or not either one (or both) of these applications will provide the functionality I am seeking. I have spent a fair bit of time looking around the Lenovo website, but cannot find a document that describes (in a general, overview manner) the functionality that CSS provides.
I don't need to log into VPNs, or company networks, or anything really fancy like that - I just need something that will enable me to log into about 20 different websites, using a different password for each website. Right now, I'm generally using the same password for every website (that way, I can remember what it is), and as I think you will agree, that is probably not a very good practice so far as security is concerned.
If anyone could point me towards a document that explains how I can get CSS to do what I want it to do, I would be very grateful. If CSS does not have the functionality I am seeking, I would very much appreciate a recommendation of software - possibly non-Lenovo - that does provide the functionality I am seeking.
Thanks very much for your assistance.
Michael

Hi PanEuropean2,
Welcome to Lenovo Forum!
In regard to your question, Client Security Solution (CSS) should be the right fit for you.
I have a T410 with Win 7, and have several passwords to remember which is really killing me. However, by using CSS, Fingerprint software and Password Manager, I need to enter all the passwords only once when access a website or a tool, and let it saved in CSS.
The next time i turn on the machine and open up a website which needs user ID and password, I just need to swipe the fingerprint that I've enrolled, then viola!
Just take note that after the first swipe of fingerprint, tools or website that are to be accessed later will automatically show the password in the box directly without having to swipe fingerprint again. You just need to click to log in. I"m not sure if this is the experience you're looking for, however, no harm to give it a try.
Here's the user guide for CSS. It has
Client Security Solution components

Hope this helps
Cheers,
Cleo

Thinkvantage CSS Password Manager Import Problem

Good morning,
I have run into a bit of a problem.
Backstory: About a month ago my HD crashed on my T61, and since I was thinking about upgrading to Win7 Professional from XP Pro SP3, it seemed like the perfect time since I had to do a clean install anyway. Just before the crash I backed up everything on the HD to a backup drive including the previous version of CSS and password manager.
Present Day: I have managed to upgrade to Win7 Pro, reinstall all of the applications, documents, etc, and install the latest version of CSS that works with Win7 Pro 64bit. Everything is working fine including Password Manager.
I have found the .PWM file on the backup drive and attempted to import it to the new version of PWM. It keeps asking for a password. I have tried every password (including system password) to no avail.
Can someone assist me in finding a work around or a way to import this file? There are too many entries in this file that cannot be re-created from memory.
Thank you in advance.

Thanks for the suggestion. There is one thing I need to clarify: I did not export the backup from the older version CSS Password Manager (8.30.0045) but was trying to use the .pwm file from its data folder in my backup archives. I tried what you suggested, re-installed the older version (the oldest I could find from Lenovo website, CSS 8.30....), then there were two options I was facing: import the *.pwm file from the back (even though it was not originally exported), I was asked import password, for which I tried every possible one I've used before but none worked. Then I directly put the *.pwm file into the same path location %user%\AppData\Roaming\Lenovo\Client Security Solution and hoped the older version will be able to pick it up upon opening. No, it did not. Even more strange things, it asked for my password and then disappeared without giving either the password manager GUI or any error.
Then I did what you said to clear the TPM in the BIOS and got no luck of anything different.
Any other advice is highly appreciated!

MacBook - Newbie: Need help on printing wirelessly to XP shared printer

MacBook - Newbie: Need help on printing to XP shared printer
Bear with me please. I read tons of articles on this but somehow as a newbie to MAC (girlfriends sick daughter), I am missing something. 10.5.2
Currently, she can print directly if we plug in the HP Deskjet printer directly via USB to the MACBook. No problem.
When we first got the MACBOOK I tried setting up the MACBOOK wirelessly to recognize the workgroup where the printer was attached via USB to the Windows XP PC. However it printed out garbage since I did not know there was a difference between XP printing and MAC (Gutenberg/gimp printing/drivers).
Now I know there is a difference.
But in reading various instructions, I no longer can find how to connect the MAC to the Windows workgroup. Note we do have a printer set up currently as USB-HP Deskjet on the Macbook (not sure I need to delete it yet).
I went to System Preferences on MACBOOK and clicked on printers, more printers. In the drop down box was CANON, APPLETALK, IP HP printing and Firewire. There was no WINDOWS selection as I saw in other online web instructions.
So not sure how to proceed to find a way to:
1. Connect to Windows workgroup (click on what exactly), step by step please!!
2. Add correct HP Deskjet 5490 printer (perhaps there is one with Gutenberg or perhaps I need Gutenprint-really not sure what I am talking about)
Thanks so much in advance. Fiancé's kid has had her cancer recur in a different place and someone was nice enough to buy her a MACBOOK as a gift.
Sincerely
Peter

OK...I figured it out...no need to reply. I noticed that there was another Protocol to use to set up the printer on the Mac, I was using LPD, so I switched it to HP Jet Direct-socket, and it prints fine...thanks. I am curious as to why LPD wouldn't work; if anyone has that answer I would like to know...thanks
Any chance of posting the Protocol you used to connect to your printer with your laptop? I'm have the exact same problem printing from my MB. Same error message "..is busy".

The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
    1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
          Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
          bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
          'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
          ID security questions' and click 'Continue'.
     2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contact Apple support.
     3. Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.
A substitute for using the security questions is to use 2-step verification:

I need help with CSS and floating

Okay, I know I need to get up on CSS and get rid of tables in
my sites.
However, I'm running up against a problem, and after banging
my head
against it for a while, I realize I need help. I've stripped
this down
so as to only show the area where I'm having difficulty.
What I want is a page that has everything down the center,
taking up no
more than 750 pixels and no more than 550 pixels of width. No
problem there.
After the header and the top content, I'd like to have two
"columns",
each in it's own separately-colored box. I would like the
right-side
column/box to be a static size, while the left-side
column/box sizes
dynamically.
Where I'm having problems is that when one column is boxed,
it's fine,
but whenever I wrap each column in its own box, the
fixed-size box
either jumps below or above the other box (depending on which
one has
been floated and which order the div's appear in the code).
Here are the links:
CSS:
http://www.afice.org/stylesheet/floatmestyles.css
ex 1:
http://www.afice.org/floatme1.html
ex 2:
http://www.afice.org/floatme2.html
Before sending, I took a look again, just to see if I was
missing
anything. I did notice that it doesn't seem to be that the
box is
jumping down so much as it is that it's getting written over.
Anyway, sorry for the long-winded explanation. I hope I've
managed to
explain what I'm trying to do well enough that someone can
tell me where
I'm going wrong.
Thanks,
--Kevin

Do you want something like this:
http://www.pmob.co.uk/temp/spointfooter.htm
You will need to look at the code to see how it was done.
Otherwise, there are different examples here on Pauls' site:

CSS - Password Manager and Firefox 6.x

I have just installed Client Security Solution for windows 7, 64bit.
I have Firefox 6.0.1 installed. Everytime I start Firefox, I have the following message:
"TypeError: Components.classes[TvtPwmComponent_CID] is undefined"
Apparently, this is the Password Manager extension which does not work in Firefox version 6 or above. Is there any updates for this or I just disable it?
Any idea is appreciated.
JN

hey jamesnb,
currently there is no patch for FF 6.0.1 (sorry about that). Only thing i can recommend is to disable Password Manager for the time being.

Need help with usage of static functions

Hi,
I tried instantiating objects within static functions as follows: It gives error:
If someone can explain an alternate way of doing things, I would appreciate:
public class C {
* @param args
public static void main(String[] args) {
Y.Fn1();
public class X {
public void Fn2(){
int b=2;
System.out.println("hello");
public class Y {
public static void Fn1()
int a=2;
X obj = new X();
obj.Fn2();
The actual error is:
Cannot make a static referencxe to the nonstatic method Fn2() from the type X Y.java
Need Help : If someone can comment on the following, I would appreciate:
I have a class Session, which has a method ProcessEvent()
public class Session{
public synchronized void processEvent(Event e)
// Processing of the event
// Generate a response for the Event
This Session class is the mainstream code..
Now I want to write a TestClass that will test the main code.
So I have a Test class as below:
public class Test {
public static void sendReq()
// Construct an event and call processEvent Function from the main code
Event ev = new Event();
// Fill the event with parameters
Session sess = new Session();
sess.processEvent(ev);
What I am thinking of doing is: Call the static method in another class called Manager of the mainstream code for test purpose as follows:
public class Manager {
public void somefunction()
//*** Just for test purpose: do the following line **//
Test.sendReq();
I am not sure what I am trying to do will work. I would appreciate if you can comment on that or suggest something that would work for me.
Another thing which I want to do is:
Inside ProcessEvent(), I want to call another static method ParseandValidateResponse() of the TestClass This looks odd, but as long as it works, it would be fine for me because this is only for test purpose.
In this case, I would write,
public class Session{
public synchronized void processEvent(Event e)
// Processing of the event
// Generate a response for the Event
Test.parseandValidateResponse(Response res);
public class Test {
public static void sendReq()
// AS SHOWN PREVIOUSLY
public static void parseandValidateResponse(Response resp)
// validate the response
}

Sorry I thought no one had replied. When I posted here, I missed seeing yr reply. Later just now I saw yr reply It was in the second Page
(Earlier I was looking only in first page by mistake)

CSS Password Manager not working

Password Manager stopped working when I installed FireFox. Found the Fix on the downloads page, Applied the fix, it still doesn't work. Called Lenovo Technical Support. They suggested that I Uninstall CSS, reboot, and reinstall CSS. Did that and still no luck.
I would like to totally clean CSS out of the system, registry, etc. and then try a reinstall. Can anyone tell me how to manually remove CSS from the laptop.
I'm using a X61 Tablet running Vista Enterprise..
All help will be appreciated.

I can, idzham, but where do I find the .exe file for reinstalling it? Losing that key, and being completely locked out of my machine, concerns me.

Need help with trim and null function

Hi all,
I need help with a query. I use the trim function to get the first three characters of a string. How do I write my query so if a null value occurs in combination with my trim to say 'Null' in my results?
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. What am I doing wrong?
SELECT trim(SUBSTR(AL1.user_data_text,1,3)),NVL
(AL1.user_data_text,'XX')
FROM Table
I want the XX to appear in the same column as the
trim.The main thing you're doing wrong is not formatting your code. The solution may become obvious if you do.
What you're saying is:
SELECT trim ( SUBSTR (AL1.user_data_text, 1, 3))
,       NVL ( AL1.user_data_text, 'XX' )
FROM    Tablewhich makes it clear that you're SELECTing two columns, when you only want to have one.
If you want that column to be exactly like the first column you're currently SELECTing, except that when that column is NULL you want it to be 'XX', then you have to apply NVL to that column, like this:
SELECT NVL ( trim ( SUBSTR (AL1.user_data_text, 1, 3))
            , 'XX'
FROM    Table

Newbie needs help with Flex app

Hi there. I am very new to Flex and also fairly new to
programming although I do have a little experience.
I am trying to create an app which stores code snippets or
common text I tend to use every day in my documents and emails.
So basically I need help on a design level. I can refer to
the developer's manual for exact instructions for commands, but I
need to know what to code first.
The app will consist of:
-a tree directory structure where I can create groups.
-There will be a basic text editor where I input all my data,
basic text formatting options (font, bullets etc) would be a bonus.
-A search function
-Finally it will ideally allow multiple client apps write to
a central database file over a network
Can anyone suggest how I should approach such a project?
Or are there any tutorials / source files which demonstrate
each bullet point?
thanks.

Hey jono,
I'm new too. But I think I might know the right components.
If you google any of these + flex 3 you should get some
decent documentation
tree - advanced dataGrid component
basic text editor - rich text editor component
search function - well, you're gonna need to read up on
arrays, and arraycollection. Once you get that stuff working, you
can write up a function to search for a string in an array.
network functionality - HTTPService, you can dump the
datagrid into a database, and have it load the database when you
open up the application.
Give these things a shot, tutorials / sources will come with
the google searches.

Hey everyone :) I need help resting my password secuirty questions

Hey everyone okay so its getting a little bit frusturating because this is the second time now that i've had to rest my password secuirty questions, but i guess i have no one to blame but my self ugh.

Please i really wanna buy song grrrr help
Savannah S. xx

You won't be able to add a rescue email address until you can answer your questions, you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

Newbie Needs Help With Website

I am new to Dreamweaver and am undertaking the task of building my church website. I have placed the images in tables on and centered. I have also set the table width to 60% so that it will display properly in different resolutions. However the links I have created on the left move over the images when the screen size is reduced. My question is what do I need to do with the links to keep them locked in place when the screen size is reduced.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Below is the code that is used for the links

I can't see any tables being used on the entry page.. all you are using is absolutely positioned divs. Not sure why you are using AP divs, are you?
Unless you understand how these work, you will be in a lot of bother, one of them being the exact problem you mention.... read this article before doing anything else:
http://apptools.com/examples/pagelayout101.php
That layout can be quite easily achieved by a beginner using a table layout - one for header, a nested table layout for the left and right columns and then another for the footer area.
Also a simple css layout would work, but you'd again need to understand css positioning.
The page took a heck of a long time to load and its because all you've used is images.... type your url into the box at this site and you'll see that the image sizes are just too big, causing the slow load times.
http://analyze.websiteoptimization.com/wso
Had a look at one of the inner pages (history) and again you are using an image for the text area - why would you do that...
Firstly, it would cause a speed issue and more importantly would cause you problems if you wanted the page spidered by the search engines... no text on a page and the SEs won't find you.
Sorry to say this, but I'd start over, but before you do, please read up on how to create a page (using either tables or css) that isn't as fragile as the one you have and that will be consistent across different browsers.
Here are some links to help you get started:
http://www.w3schools.com/
http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/mx/dreamweaver/css.html
http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/tableless_layout_dw8.html
http://www.macromedia.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/css_concepts.html
The last one on the list may suit you to start with, as it takes a FWs comp and shows you how to build the site in Dreamweaver.

Hope some of this helps :-)

HELP! I NEED HELP WITH MY PASSWORD

I RECENTLY PURCHASED MY IBOOK FROM AN INDUVIDUAL AND I CANT SET UP AN EMAIL ADDRESS OR ANYTHING ELSE BECAUSE IT SAYS THAT MY PASSWORD IN INCORRECT.THE USERNAME THAT POPS UP IS MY NAME.I NEED TO FIND OUT HOW TO TAKE CARE OF THIS.ANY HELP? THANKS!

First off, all caps is considered shouting. Bad idea.
As for your actual question -- a bit more information is required. Do you need to change the password for your user account? Your user account is what you login to when you turn on your computer. It might be setup so you don't have to enter your username and password when you boot up. It is set this way if you can turn it on, and when it's done starting, you see a desktop and dock and can use your programs. On the other hand, you might have to enter your username (either by typing or clicking on your icon) and then your password. After doing that you will be at the desktop.
If you can't get to the desktop be, it means you aren't typing the password correctly. Passwords are case sensitive -- perhaps you just need to turn caps-lock off -- e.g., "PASSWORD" is not the same as "password" and if your password is set to something like the latter, typing the former will always fail. If you don't know the password, you can reset it by booting from the system install discs (put in system disc, hold down "c" while turning on the computer, ignore the open popup regarding installation, from the menu, choose the option for resetting the password, choose the user you wish to reset, and then enter a new password).
On the other hand, if you get to your desktop and can use programs, the above is not your problem. Instead, you are having a problem loging into your mail account because you don't know your password. In that case, your only option is to contact the mail service provider and ask for your password. That issue has nothing to do with your operating system.
