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.

    I finally resolved my problem after spending way too much time on it. I simply handed my 160GB iPod to my husband to put his fav Stones & Beatles songs on and I went back to my 80GB Microsoft Zune which has never disappointed me.
    After spending so much time trying to figure this out I did finally take it back to Apple Store who performed a diagnostic and found there was a problem with the device. They replaced it with a refurbished one which has similar issues. All I wanted to do was listen to my music. Was that too much to ask? So I am happy to be free of this problematic device. No more Apple for me!!

  • It seems that Google search is not compatable with Firefox 9.0.1? Any fixes for this?

    I just upgraded to Firefox 9.0.1 Suddenly, my Google toolbar search does not work. Any work around or fix for this?

    Why do these companies do this!! They take something useful screw it up out of mere caprice just to keep their programmers busy. I sure some genius at Google thinks this was a good idea. "Let's really annoy our users by making it more difficult to use our sites. Oh but it looks so cool now". Change for the sake of change is annoying and idiotic and I hate it.
    Baloney. I have tried Safari, Google Chrome, and Opera and all support the top navigation bar in Google Earth and Finance. Firefox is the problem!

  • Previous version of FF used to automatically reopen saved tabs when reopening FF browser. in version 10 - it's stopped doing that. any fixes for this?

    when closing browser, previous version used to have a pop up window that asked if I wanted to remember the open tab locations and then when I reopened the browser it would automatically open those tabs. this is no longer working in version 10.

    Firefox 4 and later versions save the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.<br />
    Use "Firefox > Quit Firefox" if you want to restore multiple windows or otherwise have problems with restoring tabs.<br />
    You can use "History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.<br />
    You may need to click the orange/gray Firefox button to see History.<br />
    There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.
    Using the "Show my windows and tabs from last time" setting is a more reliable way to restore session data.

    Could you try disabling graphics hardware acceleration? (I'm having trouble determining from your "More system information" whether it's enabled or disabled.) Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You usually need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    If you restart Firefox, is the issue resolved?

  • The face time button on my iphone 4 is no longer there. It was there in the beginning, I think it went missing after I upgraded the software. I am on the latest version 4.3.5 now. Is there any solution for this?

    I am not sure which upgrade version caused this to happen. I have upgraded the phone several times since last year and not really a frequent user of face time. I just noticed when I want to test it with my son's macbook.

    There isn't a separate app icon for Facetime for the iPhone like there is for the iPad and iPod Touch.  Facetime is built into the iPhone's iOS.
    Here a refresher on how it works:

  • B570 FINGER PRINT SCANNER NOT WORKING PROPERLY?

    I just purchased a Lenovo B570 and the fingerprint scanner doesn't seem to functioning correctly. There are times when I have to scan my finger about 10-12 times before I can get it to work. Then I get frustrated and just enter in my password. I like the feature but it's kind of irritating when it doesn't work right. Is it supposed to be so sensitive? Is there a way to fix it so it wouldn't be so sensitive? Thanks.

    have you tried to update drivers?

  • Biometrics finger print scanner not working on Qosmio F45 AV411

    Hello,
     I have a Qosmio F45 AV411 that I have just installed Windows 7 32 bit on. This was not an upgrade, but a fresh image on a new hard drive. I have also got all the drivers to work except for the:
    driver_fingerprint_upek_TC00237700A.exe
    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling as well. Is there software that goes with this device as well? I checked device manager, and it says I have the latest driver.
    Thanks,
    Daniel

  • My  message bar keeps opening without my hitting the icon. It does it when I move the mouse or track pad to the left  top corner of the screen. Any fix for this?

    The Message bar opens without clicking on its icon. Usually when I bring the curser to the top left of the screen. Both with mouse and track pad.

    Hi there kellyaames,
    It sounds like you may have Hot Corners enable. You can change this setting in System Preferences > Mission Control. Take a look at the article below for more information.

  • Slow and laggy scrolling when using a touchscreen, any fix for this?

    I'm using FF on a touchscreen "flip" laptop and scrolling is choppy and laggy!
    In IE11/Chrome/Opera12&20 it's smooth. Any one know how to fix this, I've tried the SmoothWheel and YASM add-ons and they only made things worse.
    IE, Chrome and Opera is like browsing and scrolling on a HTC One m8/iPhone5s and FF feels like using my old Nokia 5800 from 2008.
    FF have a lot of customization features that Chrome and Opera 20 doesn't have and Opera 12 is no longer being upgraded/supported, so I would like to be able to continue using FF.

    I have, it was just showing up because I hadn't rebootet after upgrading from 12 to 13. I have tried booting FF in safe mode, with and without hardware acceleration & smooth scrolling. Scrolling (horizontally and vertically) and zooming is still slow and laggy.
    I tried FF 28.0 Beta with the Metro(Modern) mode, and thats nothing I'll use, at least until you can use plug-ins/add-ons. I'm running Windows 8.1 Pro not RT.
