  • Password required more since upgrade.

    I upgraded my Macbook to the latest software version a couple of weeks
    ago. Previously, I used the fingerprint function to unlock the screen
    each time, apart from once a week when it required the password. This
    has been the same for the last two years. It isnt ever turned off, just
    put to sleep.
    Since the software/OS upgrade, I've increasingly had to use the password
    to use the MB. I put the password in at around 5pm today, then came back
    to it at 8pm, and it needed the password again.
    No settings were changed. Touchkey and password settings all seem to be ok.
    Any ideas to stop the constant nagging about etering the password?
