Hey there rshalf,
If you're looking to set up a fingerprint on your Mac, use the steps below:
1. On your Mac, choose Apple menu> System Preferences, then click Touch ID
.
2. Click “Add Fingerprint,” enter your password, then follow the onscreen instructions.
If your Mac or Magic Keyboard has Touch ID, the sensor is located at the top right of your keyboard. You can add up to three fingerprints to your user account (you can save up to five fingerprints on your Mac).
