Yesterday, touch-id stopped working on my M1 iMac with Ventura 13.0.1.
I went to "System Settings", "Touch ID & Password" and tried to slide the switch on, but the slider was greyed out, I couldn't turn it on. It appears to still know about my fingerprint.
How do I turn it back on the way it has been for a year and a half?

Turn off the Touch ID Keyboard.
Cable it directly to the computer via the Apple Suppled Cable and turn on the Keyboard and try again

You are welcome and thank you too
Yup the bifocals I use do not always pickup things
Turned it off, plugged it in, and discovered that the switches were all turned on again!!
Thanks.
(I wish the on-off switches weren't light gray and dark gray to indicate off and on)
That's much better! "On" used to be green.
The whole idea of slide switches should be obvious which way is on and which way is off.
Ah, the lines of functionality between iOS for iDevices and macOS for computers are getting Blurry ☺️ 🇨🇦
Mac touch-id turned off, can't turn on
