Well go buy something and when it asked for your finger print or password just 
cancel if the finger print is still active it will tell you to put your finger 
on the home button if not it as you know will ask for your password

Subject: Re: Touch ID and purchasing things in the Apple online stores

 

Yes, I tend to turn my phone off at night when I'm asleep. That is, of course, 
unless it is being charged. But I have certainly turned my phone off on various 
occasions since getting it. So that may explain the problem. Unfortunately, I 
don't have anything I want to buy right now to test out the theory, since it 
has been less than four hours since I signed in and made that purchase.

Mary, have you turn your phone off lately? I believe there is a time period, 
about 4 hours, where you can use your fingerprint after signing in with your 
Apple ID. If you have shut down your phone, you have to always sign in. Clear 
as mud?

I am confused about the use of touch ID in places like the iBooks store, app 
store or iTunes store. I thought I was set up for that. But I just purchased an 
iBook. I hit the buy button and was prompted to sign in with my password. I put 
my finger on the home  button for touch ID, nothing happened. So I signed  in 
the usual way and the book was purchased. Now I don't have a problem signing 
in. I have been doing it for a long time. But I am confused as to how this 
touch ID thing is supposed to work. There must be some setting I am missing. Or 
I just don't understand its operation.
