ThinkVantage Password Manager incompatible with Firefox 7.0.1

I've updated my Firefox to 7.0.1 and have noted the greyed out message within the FFox add-ons that the ThinkVantage Password Manager is incompatible with Firefox 7.0.1   I have search for a fix or patch from Lenovo that address this issue with this version of FFox  but have not found any solutions. Does anyone have an ear to a possible solution? Thanks!

Hi,
 There is a patch for FF support.
 Please check  the link below,
http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkVantage-Technologies/Password-Manager-compatibility-issue-with-Fire...
If you are using FF8.0 and it is not working after the patch is installed.
To the following steps:
 Disable password manager extension from FF,
 And find the file "tvtpwm_jstypes.xpi" and drag it into FF to reinstall the extension.
 This file is usually in folder, "c:\swtools\css83_firefox5_patch"

  • Does ThinkVantage Password Manager work with Firefox 3.6. Earlier versions it would not work.

    Last time I installed Firefox it would not load Lenovo ThinkVantage Password Manager as a plug in. Since then I have not used Firefox. I would like to again try Firefox but thought I would ask the question first. Can I use ThinkVantage Password Manager with Firefox 3.6?

    Lenovo have released a patch that will make the ThinkVantage Password Manager work with Firefox 3.6 and higher. You can download it from:

    I've just installed it and it works perfectly now.

  • WILL "digital persona" finger print password manager work with Firefox?

    My computer has a fingerprint reader that I use to store my passwords to log onto websites. It works with internet explore but have not been able to use it with Firefox. When trying to use the message states "The address wasn't understood". "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (daq) isn't associated with any program."
    My software was loaded on computer and is named "digital Persona"

    I can see from your "More System Details" list (thank you!) that the DigitalPersona extension is disabled. Usually this indicates that the extension contains a list of compatible Firefox versions and your version is not included. This is not a new issue with this software, unfortunately.
    In March 2011, another volunteer found this:
    "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 "
    Some volunteers have suggested testing a different extension: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/fingerfox-se/ Fingerfox (SE)]. It claims to support DigitalPersona 2.0. An updated version is available from the developer's website: [http://amews.net/products/fingerfox/download/]. If you try it, could you report back on whether it works?

  • Thinkvantage Password Manager - Which Browsers supported?

    I am currently using an Edge 15" running Windows 7 (64 bit) and Firefox 3.6.12. I have Thinkvantage Password Manager (3.20.0330.00) installed together with a fingerprint reader.
    The password Manager is not opening when I log into web sites to capture the login info because Firefox has disabled the add in associated with it due to compatibility problems.
    Can anyone suggest a browser that does work properly with the password manager?. If possible I would like to avoid IE and stick with an earlier version of FF - do any of the earlier versions work?
    What's been your experience?

  • After updating to Firefox 7.0.1 , Kaspersky password Manager v5 crashed firefox?!

    After updating to Firefox 7.0.1 , Kaspersky password Manager v5 becomes incompatible with Firefox 7.01 ,I've tried to force add-on to work by installing the Add-on Compatibility Reporter , it said this add-on no longer works , any site I open it with kaspersky Password Manager firefox would crash , I wish I could rollback the updates and back to version 6 , also Kapersky virtual keyboard ,URL advisor . antibanner for KIS 2012 stopped working any solution , please?!

    @repected sir.
    we paid kaspersky pure alot of money....and a major portion was because it has inbuilt password manager.....
    if we get the password manager v5..we still have to pay for it which is unacceptible.
    firefox has ruined password manager.
    i recommend people to switch over to chrome(the new version has password manager support) for the time being till firefox gets us a stable version one which has support for kaspersky password manager.

  • Acrobat X plugin incompatible with Firefox 7.0.1

    Firefox 7.0.1 plugin manager reports that "Adobe Acrobat-Create PDF 1.1" is incompatible with Firefox.  And, indeed, there is no Acrobat Toolbar visible on the main browser window.  Is that so, and why?

    Maybe a re-installation of Acrobat will put it back?
    No it won't.
    The problem is not with Adobe, but with Mozilla. They automatically disable  extensions until the developer certifies it is compatible with the new version, and in the case of binary XPCOM extensions such as the Acrobat Create PDF toolbar, it has to be recompiled from scratch for every major release of Firefox as the version number is coded into the headers. Even if you disable Firefox's compatibility checking, it won't run.
    With Mozilla's new rapid update policy, Adobe cannot possibly keep updating Acrobat every time Mozilla push a new version, and developers are not allowed to fake the compatibility header to refer to a future build. Each time Adobe do push an update to Acrobat (via the quarterly schedule) it can be expected to come with an extension compatible with whatever current (RTM) version of Firefox exists at the time that update code was developed. Given Adobe and Mozilla have wildly-different schedules, until Mozilla drop their rules on recompiling XPCOM the extension may be killed again in a matter of days, and there's nothing we can do to stop it.

  • X200 ThinkVantage Password Manager

    Hi. We are in the process of removing Local Administrator priveledges for most of our users. One of our users uses the fingerprint reader and ThinkVantage Password Manager software to control his Windows login and his Lotus Notes login on his X200 tablet.
    Since removing his local admin priveledges, the user reports that he can no longer login to Lotus Notes using his fingerprint. He is only presented with the normal Lotus Notes login screen. When attempting to launch the Password Manager by pressing the blue ThinkVantage button above the KB and then selecting Manage, nothing happens. If his local admin rights are restored, he can login to Lotus Notes with his fingerprint, and the Password Manager launches properly.
    Does anybody have any tips to get this working without local admin rights? Thanks!

    Hi,
    first I would like to make a short explanation on how Fingerprint and CSS (Client security Solution aka Password Manager) are working in this situation:
    After you confugred the system and the user swiped his fingers into the FPR applications and sensor, it hase captured also all other metadata, like the user role, name, domain, etc.
    In case anything changes, then the application will react accordingly and in your case it will just kind of react, like if it would not recognize the login for Lotus notes.
    So here is what I would advice to do:
    - remove all the swiped fingers from the FPR for the user, that you want to change (remove the Admin account) and make the appropriate changes to the system and the account
    - first of all as an Admin enter Fingerprint console and configure it , so that also a non-Admin user can log on and use the Fingerprint:
    Settings->User Privileges-> check all the boxes, that are in this tab
    - log on as the affected user
    - swipe the fingers and make sure, that also CSS is configured, as it was previously
    - reboot the machine
    This should be enough, to get the metadata corrected and the new, or better say the old user will be able to use the ususal Fingerprint loging without any problem.
    Please let me knwo, if you will have any add questions, or will have this situation tested.
    Cheers

  • T510 Thinkvantage password manager and hotmail

    The thinkvantage password manager seems to recognize passwords in some sites but not others.  Most notably, no matter what I do, it does not seem to recognize hotmail, so no option ever comes up to add the hotmail password to the password manager when I log in to hotmail.
    Does anyone know how to make password manager recognize the password field in hotmail?  Is there any way to manually add a website to password manager?  I can seem to find one.

    Hello mate,
    Password manager doesn't work with Hotmail. Probably a compatibility problem. You can't do much about that, you can create a scratch pad if your are afraid to forgot your password but that's almost it.

  • Disable ThinkVantage Password Manager

    Hi there,
    I'am a new member of this communitty and this is my first thread.
    I'am using a T61p running Windows XP and I want to disable the ThinkVantage Password Manager and fingerprint reader but I cant find a way to do this. Hopefully ther is somone here that can explain this.
    Thanks

    This is an old thread, but in case others find it (like I did), here is an update:
    I had the same problem (ThinkPad X201s, Win 7 32, latest Msft and Lenovo updates).  I made the mistake of trying to use the fingerprint reader with my overly dry hands (gave up after hand cream, hundreds of failures and only a few successes). 
    I disabled the fingerprint reader in a"Biometric Devices" control panel.  I didn't try other ways, but I did find settings that might disable it in System->Device Manager, and in BIOS. 
    But once I had tried to use the fingerprint reader, the Password Manager wouldn't go away.
     I found a way to turn this thing off by opening C:\Program Files\Lenovo\Client Security Solution, and then running the program called css_pwmgr_toggle.exe
    This program appears to do exactly what I wanted (turns off the ThinkVantage Password Manager in the systray/notification area).
    Note that this procedure does NOT remove Client Security from the Startup tab in msconfig (a suggestion I've seen in other posts).

  • HP smart web printing is incompatible with firefox 4.0. What can be done to resolve this issue?

    having recently upgraded to Mozilla's Firefox 4.0 it has disabled the 4.6 HP smart web printing saying it is incompatible with Firefox 4.0?  Is there any way around this inconvenience of not having the ability to use this terrific HP pdct as do not have ability to print from a website using their print feature nor simply selecting print on the Firefox browser?
    thank you

    Anytime that there is a browser upgrade, it affects add ons functionality. If it is in the works to make it compatible, then it simply takes time for our team to create the necessary changes. But, as history has shown, the changes are never as easy as you would think, and occasionally is not compatible without a complete rewrite of the program. If it is made compatible, it will be listed when available on the Web Printing homepage.

  • Do any versions of FF support the use of Lenovo's ThinkVantage Password Manager s/w and fingerprint scanner?

    Lenovo Edge 15" laptop running Windows 7 (64 bit) and using Thinkvantage Password Manager Ver 3.20.0330 and TouchStrip Fingerprint Sensor (UPEK).
    The password manager is to set to restrict logins to websites to fingerprint but when logging into websites I am not given the option to use the fingerprint reader -(the login info stored in the P/W manager is entered and login takes place). I have seen elsewhere that FF 3.6 has problems supporting this combination and wonder if any earlier versions of FF would be suitable or if FF 4 is likely to support it.
    Any help would be appreciated

    Kent1968
    I would recommend, if you have it set, to go to a restore point before you uninstalled the password manager version that did not give you a problem and not use the new version until this bug is resolved.
    If the fingerprint light is not showing up, then it is probably not limited to you and I hope Lenovo checks it out.
    Too bad the newer version seems to load slowly - I will check it out as well.

  • ThinkVantage Password Manager unable to recognize fingerprint reader

    Hi, I have a X220 running on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. My ThinkVantage Password Manager version is 3.20.0333.00, and my fingerprint reader driver version is 1.5.0.289 from AuthenTec. My ThinkVantage Fingerprint Software version is 5.9.5 build 7038.
    However, when authentication is required for the Password Manager, a Client Security Solution pops up showing "The requested operation requires fingerprint authentication, but the device is not installed. Please make sure the device is connected and retry the operation."
    I am also unable to find the "enroll fingerprint" option in my Password Manager.
    Anyone have similar problems? Thanks.

    Did this work previously, and it just stopped working?
    What version of Client Security Solution is installed?  To use that version of Fingerprint software, it needs to 8.30.0049 (or later)

  • Trend-Micro NSC Firefox extension is incompatible with Firefox 10

    When I open the add-ons screen for Firefox 10, I get a faded out message that Trend-Micro NSC Firefox extension is incompatible with Firefox 10. I've contacted Trend Micro about updates and they said that it would be a few weeks before they release an updated version. Why do you release and force updates when important extensions are not ready?

    Apologies for the slow response.
    Firefox is on a time based release cycle, every 6 weeks we release a new version (more or less a few days). There are over 6,000 extensions available for Firefox, almost all of them from third-party developers. When Firefox switched to a new release cycle back in the beginning of 2011, all of those extension developers we notified of the change and how it would impact them. Some of them choose not to mark their software as compatible until it work for them. If Firefox were to wait until even 80% of the extensions were marked as compatible, there would never be an update. The responsibility to update add-ons is on the extension developer. Unfortunately, some choose to wait :/
    Now, all that said, Mozilla does want to ease the pain of upgrades, so there are lots of ways we are working to improve the update process. [http://blog.mozilla.com/futurereleases/2012/02/03/improving-the-firefox-update-experience/ http://blog.mozilla.com/futurereleases/2012/02/03/improving-the-firefox-update-experience/] has some of the changes we have launched in the past few weeks.

  • My AT&T/Yahoo toolbar is incompatible with Firefox 4. What can I do to get it back?

    I upgraded to Firefox 4 on Friday, May 6, 2011. After I finished that upgrade, I got a message that the yahoo toolbar add-on was incompatible with Firefox 4. I downloaded what I hoped was a new version on the AT&T toolbar and it seemed to work for a while, but on Saturday and Sunday my computer crashed several times. I used System Restore and then reinstalled Firefox 4. After a few crashes I decided not to enable the toolbar again. Will there be a version of the AT&T Toolbar that is compatible with Firefox 4? I use that toolbar to access my T&T mail, bookmarks and nearly all my internet browsing.

    yes and I tryed going back to my home screen by pressing my home screen button
