The fingerprint reader on my HP Pailion dv7 will not work in Firefox 4, but worked fine in earlier versions.

The fingerprint reader uses DigitalPersona 5.0.0.4490 extension. Firefox 4.0 says this is loaded and active. However, fingerprints cannot be used to log in from Firefox 4.0.
I reloaded Firefox 3.6.16 and everything automatically began working properly.

I see you started another question thread - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/888892 - so I guess your problem isn't resolved.
If it is trying to print to an XPS file, your printer isn't selected as the destination for print. You need to select you printer in the Printer - Name box. See the screenshot.

  • I have macbook pro. The pinch open and close is not working in firefox 4, but works in safari. How can I get that feature back

    To find pinch open and close and how it works in macbook pro go to the apple icon. Open system preferences and the choose trackpad. Each item is illustrated.

    You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page.
    * browser.gesture.pinch.in -> <b>cmd_fullZoomReduce</b>

  • Everytime i search and select a site i get redirected while i can go directly to the site on Explorer, also some bookmarked sites will not open on Firefox, even though there were saved there but I can open them in Explorer. Help I like Firefox.

    there are too many to list. when I google a site and click on it, most times I get redirected. is this a maleware issue? it seems to work fine with Explorer. for example I can open adam4adam.com in Explorer but not with Firefox.

    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • IS the fingerprint reader ok to install on 8.1 again?

    I'd like to reinstall the fingerprint reader however, i'm fearful it will bring problems again. so before i do, i thought i'd ask you guys. is it safe to install the fingerprint reader on 8.1 64 bitor should i hold off?

    Maybe people have found a solution already but yesterday I managed to install Win 8.1 as a BootCamp on my new 15" retina MBP.  I followed the steps John Guo described but with a couple of changes as his approach failed for me.
    1. Make sure you are starting from a single partition.
    2. Create the Windows install USB from the ISO and also allow BootCamp Assistant to create download the drivers - but untick the option to install windows.
    3. Open Disk Utility and create a new partition and format as MS-DOS (FAT) rather than leave as free space.
    4. Restart your Mac and use the option to boot into the Windows part of the USB not the EFI-boot.
    5. Follow the install
    6. When it comes to the drive selection select the FAT drive. Windows installer will say it cannot install here as it needs to be and NTFS partitiion (in previous atempts I always got the message to say the partitiion was using GUI partition table so could not install even though it was formatted to NTFS).
    7. The format to NTFS should work fine and install proceed.
    8. When the installer reboots the machine you will need to use the boot option to ensure you boot back into Windows.
    9. Once installed the bootcamp driver install runs automatically and for me all drivers run fine even the NVIDIA, which I've seen some people mention having issues with.
    I was inpressed with Windows automatically scaling the text to 200%, which meant it was using the full 2880x1800 resolution so everything was crisp but the windows and text was scaled nicely. I changed this 150% to give me some more real estate.
    I'm guessing that by formatting the new partition as FAT it creates a MBP within the new drive that is writable by windows but I'm not a windows guru so this is a guess. But anyway, this work perfectly.
    hope this helps some people.

  • What can be done with the fingerprint reader?

    I am trying to figure out simply what I can do with the fingerprint reader on the T400. I understand how to use it to log into the computer. My main question is whether or not I can use the fingerprint reader in the following contexts, and if so how.
    1a) To  log into internet password protected websites. When I use IE, the password manager pops up and prompts me to save a password. If I save it, I can return to that website and it automatically will enter the login information and password for me. I want to know whether you can have password manager (or another program) prompt the user for the fingerprint and then submit the login information. That way the information is protected each time I log in, but I do not need to enter log in information each time, only a fingerprint. 
    1b) If this is possible in IE8, I would like to know if it is possible in Firefox 3, in which password manager does not pop up.
    2) Can it be used to log into MS Outlook.
    3) Can it be used to lock documents in MS Word.
    I much appreciate any information letting me know if these can be done, and if so, how to do them. Thank you very much for your help!

    After playing with it for a while I figured out at least questions 1a) and 1b). For anyone else who has the same questions:
    1a) Have your browser save the password using Lenovo's Password Manager. Then open password manager and open that item.  Click the advanced tab and change the security level to custom. Click "Customize Security Policy" and select "Protect with a Fingerprint."
    1b) Lenovo has a patch to synch Password Manager with firefox 3. It can be found here and is much easier than the manual fixes found on this forum.

    I am still looking for help with 3) and 4), particurally 3). Please let me know if you have any ideas. Thank you very much!!

  • X121e: Driver for the fingerprint reader

    Hello,
    I purchased a X121e notebook at Lenovo directly; it's of type 3045-CTO and has a fingerprint reader.
    I installed Windws 7 x64 from scratch and loaded all drivers, but I can't find the driver for the fingerprint reader on the driver download website.
    Please, could someone help me to find this driver / software?
    Many thanks.

    Hi saxa,
    Download and run System Update and it should find your driver.  Read the directions.You'll need MS Net.Framework to make it work.
    See if there is anything in the bios under the security settings for turning on the fingerprint reader.  Make sure it's on if there is.

  • I cannot use the Fingerprint reader to unlock my screen!

    I just updated my S5 software from SM-G900V NCG to NE9 and now my screen will unlock only with PIN or Password. Before the update I could use my fingerprint. When I try to select Fingerprint that option is grayed out and informs me "Turned off by administrator, encryption policy or credential storage." How do I get the Fingerprint option back?

    This was also a problem I had post update but I got it back. First do a complete recheck of your fingerprint settings? If you’re still grayed out next power down phone & remove the battery, SD card and SIM (handle SIM with care (don’t touch gold foil) for about two minutes. Re-install SIM, card & battery then power on phone. This should clear up files and return the print reader setting.  If however it’s not working do the next step:
    Go to settings then backup and reset, tap Reset settings and then tap reset settings at the bottom of the screen. You will not have a loss of your accounts or any apps but you will affect some of your personal preferences settings. You can reset then as before after the restart. It will remove the bad files in your system and this restored my print reader.  Give the above a try...first.

  • Can you disable the fingerprint reader on a touchsmart tm2 tablet?

    Is there any way to disable or adjust the fingerprint reader on a touchsmart tm2 tablet?

    You should have a blue fingerprint icon on your taskbar. Double click it to reach the preferences.
    If not, try the control panel or search for "Simple Pass" software.
    From there you can manage the general preferences and the "archive" of fingerprints recognized by the system.
    If you want just plain remove the functionality, uninstalling the software turn off all fingerprint options altogether (from the login screen, inside the browser, etc).

  • My Touchsmart tx2 1360ca Win7 is reporting the fingerprint reader is disconnected how do I fix it?

    My computer abruptly without any changes I'm aware of reported the fingerprint reader was disconnected on start-up. I had to hack in and remove all passwords as I had long ago  lost the original. The finger print reader was convenient and I would like it back. No trauma to the case or unusal power fluctuations that I know of.

    Possibly. Make an appointment at the genius bar and have them take a look at it.
    If it was ever hacked to unlock it or jailbroken, it may now be permanently bricked.

  • Why I don't use the fingerprint reader in my 5S

    I loved the fingerprint reader when I first used it, until I noticed one thing: When you enable the fingerprint passcode unlock, you lose the ability to set a duration of the "Require Passcode" option to anything other than "Immediately". If I'm txting or driving with my navigation app, I constantly need to be able to get in and out of the phone, and it's very inconvenience to have to swipe the notification on the lock screen and then have to use my fingerprint to get in. I want to still be able to only have it require a passcode after x minutes, even if I use the fingerprint option. For that reason I have turned off the fingerprint feature. Is there a workaround? Does anyone else find this anoying?

    Not sure what you are asking. Does your account not work on your phone, are you getting an error message ?

    Hello
    I was unable to find the drivers searching with your product and model number as well.
    I was able to keep searching and found this link and it was under our business site support. This is the drivers for your unit series and you should be able to download the fingerprint reader drivers from the link.
    Let me know if this helps.

  • Can i use only the fingerprint reader to log onto my phone?

    I'm wondering if I can by pass the 4 digit code completely and only use the fingerprint reader to log onto my 5S phone.

    Yes, that's how it's designed. You only need the passcode if you haven't unlocked your iPhone within the last 48 hours.

  • Tecra A10 - How deselect the fingerprint reader when docked

    Hi,
    I use a Tecra A10 together with an Express Port Replicator 2.
    How can I deselect the fingerprint reader when docked and yet use it when undocked?
    Thanks for your help

    Thank you so far!
    I never thought your way, which makes sence to me indeed. It just bothered me all the time that the pop up window off the fingerprint reader is very dominant. So with some software it is not easy to insert your password. Do you know which external fingerprint reader the Toshiba TrueSuite Access Manager works with if at all?
