Aladdin Etoken Driver For Mac



Recommendation: For most Windows users, we highly recommend using a driver update utility such as DriverDoc [Download DriverDoc - Product by Solvusoft] to help update Aladdin Authenticator drivers. DriverDoc takes away all of the hassle and headaches of updating your eToken drivers by downloading and updating them automatically.


eToken errors may be linked to system drivers that are corrupt or obsolete. Drivers can work one day, and suddenly stop working the next day, for a variety of reasons. The best part is that your Authenticator drivers can always be modified to solve the laptop dilemma.




Aladdin Etoken Driver For Mac




The right eToken driver can be difficult to locate on the manufacturer's website. Even if you are experienced at finding, downloading, and manually updating eToken drivers, the process can still be very time consuming and extremely irritating. An improper driver download can lead to issues with software and harm the functionality of the computer.


Another significant problem is using a driver upgrade program which is too laborious to do. A driver update tool provides you with new driver versions for your hardware, and can also save a backup of current drivers before making any changes. Backup drivers provide you with the comfort of knowing that if anything goes wrong, you can roll back to previous drivers.

I have a Lenovo laptop with Vista Business SP1, Core2 duo T6400, 3GB Ram running WDE Workgroup Edition 10.1.2.9. I have been using version 9.7 on XP laptops of various makes with no problems for about 2 years. We are upgrading the PGP software and moving to Windows 7 with some Vista machines. The newer WDE works great on the Vista laptop except for the etoken. We use passphrase authentication and I only use the etoken to unlock an encypted laptop. For some reason the etoken is not recognized at all on the Vista laptop with the newer PGP software. It does not light up and acts as if there were no token plugged in. As soon as I enter the passphrase and boot into windows, the etoken lights up and can be accessed. I have rebooted and tried all 4 usb ports on the laptop. I have upgraded the bios and I have tried different etokens with the same result. The usb ports work fine in windows and the bios is set to allow booting to usb drives. Does anyone know why an etoken would not be reconized by the PGP boot manger, or could it be the laptop? I don't have another similar laptop to test, but my older laptops and software work great.


Thanks for the quick response. I have the etoken listed as:Aladdin eToken PRO USB Key 32K, 2048 bit RSA capable . I have Aladdin PKI 4.55 that we have been using, but I upgraded to PKI 5.0 SP1 when we upgraded the PGP software. I uninstalled 5.0,reinstalled 4.55, and reinitialized the etoken but it still doesn't recognize it. It looks like we will have to go back to PGP Desktop 9.7 since it is required for PKI 4.5. Does the PKI have to be 4.5 or will 4.55 work? Also, will PGP Desktop 9.7 and PKI 4.5 work for Windows 7 or will we have to upgrade for Windows 7? Thanks again.


I'm using PGP 10.1.2.26 on 64 bit Windows 7 Ultra, and I'm using eToken driver version 5.0.0.37. This driver version worked on recent versions as well, but I just don't recall when I started with it.


Download the latest version of the eToken PKI Client (RTE) driver software (version 4.5 was the current version when this document was written), then install it on your system. When the installation of the eToken PKI client driver software on your system is complete, open PGP Desktop and click the PGP Keys control box. If the driver software was installed correctly, you see Smart Card Keys listed in the PGP Keys control box.


We don't have many Vista machines, and it's not vital that they be encrypted. Rather than downgrading, I think I will try encrypting a Window 7 laptop (also Lenovo) and see if that works. Your solution is probably correct, but I don't have the software to test it. I was mistaken about our older version. When I checked, I found we have version 9.10 instead of 9.7. Is PKI 5 is supported in Windows 7 with PGP Desktop 10.1.2. or will I still need 4.5? If this doesn't work, I'll be inclined to think it's the Lenovo. These are the first Lenovo laptops I've tried to encrypt and the encryption works fine, the laptop just doesn't see the etoken at the boot logon screen.


To get the latest driver, including Windows 11 drivers, you can choose from the above list of most popular Aladdin downloads. Click the "Download driver" button next to the matching model name. After you complete your download, move on to Step 2.


If your driver is not listed and you know the model name or number of your Aladdin device, you can use it to search our driver archive for your Aladdin device model. Simply type the model name and/or number into the search box and click the Search button. You may see different versions in the results. Choose the best match for your PC and operating system.


Once you download your new driver, then you need to install it. To install a driver in Windows, you will need to use a built-in utility called Device Manager. It allows you to see all of the devices recognized by your system, and the drivers associated with them.


If you are having trouble installing your driver, you should use the Driver Update Utility for Aladdin. It is a software utility that automatically finds, downloads and installs the right driver for your system. You can even backup your drivers before making any changes, and revert back in case there were any problems. You can safely update all of your drivers in just a few clicks. Once you download and run the utility, it will scan for out-of-date or missing drivers:
