Solution 1-2: If you have an SCR-331 CAC Reader and using Vista, Windows 7, or 8, and are still having problems getting the reader to be recognized by ActivClient, or your CAC reader shows up as STCII Smart Card Reader follow these instructions for updating the firmware on the reader. Anyone have any idea if our CAC reader will work with Windows 10. Anyone ran into any issues I should be aware of? Mine works out of the box with no necessary software installation such as ActivClient etc. Both OWA and Citrix/VPN. MyPay, any site that requires CAC login worked for me on Google Chrome on 8.1. They continue to work on.

'Some, not all' CAC readers may need to have a small program installed to make it work.

Information about these readers are in Step 2
Step 2: The Mac must be able to 'see' the reader
Plug the CAC reader into an available USB port before proceeding, give it a few moments to install
Step 2a: Click the Apple Icon in the upper left corner of the desktop, select 'About This Mac'
Step 2b: Click the 'More Info' (button)
Step 2c: Click 'System Report..' (button) (Only available in 10.7.x and above; 10.6.x and earlier will not see this window)
Step 2d: Make sure the CAC reader shows in Hardware, USB, under USB Device Tree (See image below). Different readers will show differently, most readers have no problem in this step. See Step 2d1 for specific reader issues.
Step 2d1: Verify firmware version on your SCR-331 or GSR-202, 202V, or 203 CAC reader. If you have a reader other than these 4, GO TO STEP 3

If your reader does not look this this, go to the next step.
Below 'Hardware' click 'USB.' On the right side of the screen under 'USB Device Tree' the window will display all hardware plugged into the USB ports on your Mac. Look for “SCRx31 USB Smart Card Reader.” If the Smart Card reader is present, look at 'Version' in the lower right corner of this box: If you have a number below 5.18, you need to update your firmware to 5.25. If you are already at 5.18 or 5.25, your reader is installed on your system, and no further hardware changes are required. You can now Quit System Profiler and continue to Step 3.

If you see 0x9520, your reader is installed on your system, and no further hardware changes are required. You can now Quit System Profiler and continue to Step 3.
Step 3: Verify which version of OS X is installed on your computer
(You need to know this information for step 6)

Step 6b. If your CAC has a CA between 27 and 32 [and they didn't show up after 5a above] you'll need toinstall all of the CA 27 to 32 and CA Email 27 to 32 certificates manually. You can download the AllCerts.zip (http://militarycac.com/files/maccerts/AllCerts.zip) file, then double click each certificate individually to have them install into the login section of keychain. If you want to verify they are there, follow guidance on the Keychain page. Idea # 2 only.
