THE TOP 6 CURRENT PROBLEMS [and SOLUTIONS] CAUSING THE MOST ISSUES
. 2: The latest version of the Apple Mac OS (Lion - 10.7.x) DOES NOT support CAC natively. Please remember this when you decide to upgrade to Lion from Snow Leopard (10.6.8). We have found 8 different options for you to continue using your CAC on your Lion Mac. Please visit the Lion specific page to see the options.
3: Army users, when you are installing ApproveIt 6.5, you receive "No host application was found on this computer. Please install the host application before installing ApproveIt Desktop" you'll want to look here for the solution
4: If you have the "Gemalto TOP DL GX4 144" CAC, and sometimes the "Oberthur ID One 128 v5.5 Dual" CAC, are using Windows 7, you "may" be able to use your CAC without installing ActivClient.
5: If you have the "Oberthur ID One 128 v5.5 Dual" CAC and it does not appear to be working with your Windows computer you will need to install ActivClient 6.2.0.50, AND then update it to at least 6.2.0.119.
6. Mac users who have purchased the IO Gear GSR-202 CAC reader from the PX / BX may have problems. We've worked with Thursby Software and IOGear to find an update (which is actually a downgrade) for the firmware on the reader. Please use the following 2 files in this folder to update your CAC reader.
