    Is there a way to make the program enter the user name and password? After I setup the password and I load the page, it does not allow me to enter the user name. It goes directly to asking me to scan my finger print. And after I scan my finger print, it tries to load without a user name. So this seems kinda useless to me that it does not allow me to type my user name first and it doesn't do it for me. Is there anyway around this?

    What website are you talking about?

    I've found that the format of some pages do not work well with OmniPass, so I just manually logon to those.

    It's the website for my school. I guess its not a big deal since it works for most of the other sites.

    So it keeps asking you to swipe your finger, even though you've already logged in? Those are the sites that I log into manually myself.

    In case I misinterpreted the problem you're having, djtecha is right. You may have the OmniPass profile for your school's site set up incorrectly. Check the "Manage your Passwords" section to make sure.

    I know I've personally run across a site or two that after logging in using the print ID system, it will open a new prompt for ID... I just ignore it though and close the lower X.

    I figured out how to make it work. Using the Password Wizard, Omnipass will enter my user name and my password. I was using Remember Password before which didn't allow me to enter my user name.
