How do i remove lolipop and go back to kit kat?

The white screens are battery hogs.
nothing about this "upgrade" feels like an upgrade, no I am not mired in the past, just like a functional OS that worked very well for me.
the "feature" that really bugs me is the "enhanced" alarm handling... if i set an alarm, i want it to come through no matter what period.

Sir, I was referring to the fact that we cannot speak of those methods, not that I didn't really know how to.  Google is a part of every single thing I have.  Can't get away from it if we wanted to.

  • How do I remove Lion and go back to Snow Leopard OS?

    How do I remove Lion and go back to Snow Leopard?

    If you have the white upgrade disk (originally, you had Leopard and bought SL later), easy. I'm not sure if you have the grey disks (you bought the machine with SL).
    If you have the white disk, the first thing you do is get a USB external HD. Format it to GUID with disk utility.
    Insert the white SL disk and restart. Follow the instructions to install SL on the external disk.
    Have a look here for a step by step tutorial for setting up the external HD: http://www.maciverse.com/installing-snow-leopard-onto-an-external-hard-drive.htm l
    From here on in you have two choices:
    1. You can run SL off the external disk and keep Lion and all your files/data on the internal disk.
    This is the easiset thing to do. You can open files from your Internal Lion disk by navigating through to it in Finder when you're booted in to SL on your external disk. Practical if you have a desktop machine, maybe not if you have a laptop that you need to carry everywhere (you'd have carry the external HD with you all the time).
    Any non-Lion only (i.e., not Safari, Preview, Terminal and Mail Lion upgrades) apps should also run off your Lion disk when you're booted into SL, but if you have any problems, just drag them from the Lion Apps folder to the SL apps folder.
    2. Move everything over to the external disk if you plan to install SL back to your internal disk.
    Start copying over all your apps and files manually by dragging them from the internal disk Apps and Folders to the external disk Apps and Folders. If you have Time Machine, you can also copy your files by navigating to Time Machine through the Finder rather than trying to use the Time machine interface.
    You might spend some days doing this, but it's worth doing it manually. When you're done and sure you have everything, google 'Carbon Copy Cloner'. Download it (its free), and clone your external HD to your internal HD. SL restored!

  • How do I remove Lion and go back to snow leapard

    Lion does not work well with several of my applications the most important of which is my client data file and billing program which keeps crashing with Lion.  I want to remove it and go back to SL but don't want to lose any data that I have put in my files.  Using time machine backups I am afraid will lose much of what I have done since I "upgraded" (I should say downgraded my system) with Lion.  I don't like the changes in ical (it ***** big time) and address book is just as bad, not even functioning right.  Then there is no manual for figuring things out.  I know Steve Jobs has been sick but that is a lousy excuse for a lousy upgrade that really had more problems then additional helpful features.

    This is what we did in our office, from Kappy:
    To switch from Lion to Snow Leopard:
    1.  Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
    This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
    If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.  If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.

  • How do I remove Lion and go back to Snow Leopard?

    I spent half a day downloading and installing Lion today.
    All my Microsoft Office applications are now unusable.  This is unacceptable!!!  It is more important to be functional with my apps than to have a fancy new OS that doesn't allow me to work!!!
    So, please, how do I uninstall/remove and go back to Snow Leopard?

  • My computer refuses to work. How do I remove Firefox and go back to my old system

    I cant sign in to my games. Took 3 times to get email. wont let me into gardens of time and keeps telling me my email and password is wrong. I need to remove this from my computer but it wont let me. How do I get it off my computer?

    According to the instructions given on the Norton Community forum under "Other Norton Products/Comcast-Customers - Norton Toolbar Problem in Firefox 10", I have done everything necessary. And I do have a Norton toolbar (Safe Web and Identity Safe) when I open Firefox 10. As was mentioned in the previous posts here, you need to run manual LiveUpdate then reboot until you have version 5.2.0.13. Then reboot and run manual LiveUpdate again and reboot once more. One thing that I noticed is that Norton never told me that it had updated the patch for Firefox 10, so I didn't know. I guess if you have the toolbar when you run Firefox 10, then you have done it all.

  • How do I remove locations and/or pins from maps on iphone 5

    How can I remove locations and/or pins from MAPS?

    A purple pin is a dropped pin. You access that from the "back" of the map, but touching the lower right corner of the map. It is a pin that is dropped in the center of the map you happen to be looking at at the time. If there is no description of the pin, touch the pin and it should show a label, and on the right side of the label there is a blue arrowhead. Touch that and it will provide an address/description of the pin's location and there should be other options, such as directions to here, from here, etc., and then one to remove the pin. Touch that and it should disappear.

  • How can I remove asm and ocr installation in AIX?

    Hi,
    I try to install single instance with using ASM in AIX.
    But I did not make successfully.
    Now I want to remove ASM and OCR installation then
    I will plan to make new clear installation.
    How can I remove asm and ocr ??
    Or How can I control my removing is fully correct ?

    1) ASM Instance Clean-Up Procedures
    Stop all of the databases that use the ASM instance that is running from the Oracle home that is on the node that you are deleting.
    On the node that you are deleting, if this is the Oracle home which from which the ASM instance runs, then remove the ASM configuration by completing the following steps. Run the command srvctl stop asm -n node_name for all of the nodes on which this Oracle home exists. Run the command srvctl remove asm -n node for all nodes on which this Oracle home exists. If there are databases on this node that use ASM, then use DBCA Disk Group Management to create an ASM instance on one of the existing Oracle homes on the node, restart the databases if you stopped them.
    If you are using a cluster file system for your ASM Oracle home, then ensure that your local node has the $ORACLE_BASE and $ORACLE_HOME environment variables set correctly. Run the following commands from a node other than the node that you are deleting, where node_number is the node number of the node that you are deleting:
    rm -r $ORACLE_BASE/admin/+ASMnode_number
    rm -f $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/*ASMnode_number
    If you are not using a cluster file system for your ASM Oracle home, then run the rm or delete commands mentioned in the previous step on each node on which the Oracle home exists.
    2) Deleting an Oracle Clusterware Home Using OUI in Silent Mode
    !!! Oracle recommends that you back up your voting disk and OCR files after you complete the node deletion process.
    If you ran the Oracle Interface Configuration Tool (OIFCFG) with the -global flag during the installation, then skip this step. Otherwise, from a node that is going to remain in your cluster, from the CRS_home/bin directory, run the following command where node2 is the name of the node that you are deleting:
    ./oifcfg delif –node node2
    Obtain the remote port number, which you will use in the next step, using the following command from the CRS_home/opmn/conf directory:
    cat ons.config
    From CRS_home/bin on a node that is going to remain in the cluster, run the Oracle Notification Service Utility (RACGONS) as in the following example where remote_port is the ONS remote port number that you obtained in the previous step and node2 is the name of the node that you are deleting:
    ./racgons remove_config node2:remote_port
    On the node to be deleted, run rootdelete.sh as the root user from the CRS_home/install directory. If you are deleting more than one node, then perform this step on all of the other nodes that you are deleting.
    From any node that you are not deleting, run the following command from the CRS_home/install directory as the root user where node2,node2-number represents the node and the node number that you want to delete:
    ./rootdeletenode.sh node2,node2-number
    If necessary, identify the node number using the following command on the node that you are deleting:
    CRS_home/bin/olsnodes -n
    Perform this step only if your are using a non-shared Oracle home. On the node or nodes to be deleted, run the following command from the CRS_home/oui/bin directory where node_to_be_deleted is the name of the node that you are deleting:
    ./runInstaller -updateNodeList ORACLE_HOME=CRS_home
    "CLUSTER_NODES={node_to_be_deleted}"
    CRS=TRUE -local
    Deinstall the Oracle Clusterware home from the node that you are deleting using OUI as follows by running the following command from the Oracle_home/oui/bin directory, where CRS_home is the name defined for the Oracle Clusterware home:
    ./runInstaller -deinstall –silent "REMOVE_HOMES={CRS_home}"
    Perform step 9 from the previous section about using OUI interactively under the heading "Deleting an Oracle Clusterware Home Using OUI in Interactive Mode".

  • HELP! How do I remove Lion and reinstall Snow Leopard and my files

    HELP! How do I remove Lion and reinstall Snow Leopard & my files  BUT I just discovered my Apple Time Capsule which was using Time Machine DIED
    I had to go to MacMall and have the Time Capsule data transfered to a new BAK drive($300+$300)
    (The Apple Store sent me there as they said they do not do data transfer)
    Now what do I do?
    ? ?  One Senior advisor said that I will have to drag and drop the data file or files? from the Time Capsule BAK drive back to my iMAC but will that include all           the Snow Leopard operating system ?
    ? ?  Another senior advisor said I will have to wipe my hard drive then install Snow Leopard then "drag and drop",  ?  ??
    All my business leases, database, spreadsheets. letters, mail merge files, and so on are not available with Lion -
    I AM VERY ANGRY AS I NEVER SAW THAT WRITTEN ANYWHERE !!!
    I am seriously confused and I AM SCARED TO MAKE A MISTAKE-HELP !!
    WHAT DO I DO ?  AND   IN WHAT ORDER? PLEASE HELP!

    Your post is confusing to read too.
    It sounds like you still have your files on your Mac. Why do you want to back track to Snow Leopard on your Mac? Why can't you read your files from your Mac? If your files are on your Mac, why are you taking them off your broken Time Capsule? You don't have to install Snow Leopard to transfer your files back to your Mac. Maybe step back a bit and explain your situation a little better with details.  For instance, what's a BAK drive? Suggest you explain what you are trying to do?
    Before you do anything, create a backup of your Mac to another disk drive.. suggest you use Carbon Copy Cloner to make another copy of your Mac.

  • Good Bye Version 1.0.3 build 16 -- How do I uninstall everything and go back to previous version?

    Good Bye Version 1.0.3 build 16 -- How do I uninstall everything and go back to the previous version?
    Okay, I found the prior version of DesktopManager for Mac in one of my old backups from March of this year.  The new 1.0.3 dmg has an uninstaller next to the installer.  I am going to remove 1.0.3. from all of my computers, and install the prior version, and set the preferences for do NOT (NEVER!!!) upgrade / update!

    So -- did it work? I've heard people have gone back to the previous version and mysteriously, the syncing problems followed along, even though they weren't there before v. 1.0.3.
    BTW, where do you find the uninstall piece on the application? I looked for it once and didn't find it where I thought it would be.

  • How do I change font and colors back to default?

    I have changed the font and color of the text through the tools button and the options button and the content tab. I find nothing telling me how to change the font and colors back to default font and colors. Can you advise me? I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium OS. Thanks.

    Hi Brenda19605,
    You can use this article to set the fonts and colors: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/change-fonts-and-colors-websites-use?esab=a&s=font&r=0&as=s
    The default settings for the font are in this article:
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Some%20text%20shows%20up%20bold%20after%20upgrade
    Unfortunately for the default colors has no good reference. But for text it is black (most lower left) color, background is white (most upper left color). Unvisited links is blue (column 8, row 5) and visited link is purple (column 9, row 5).
    Let me know if you need anymore help!

  • Since installing 4.0.1 I can't right click on the Icon in my task bar and have Firefox give me the option of "close and save" the tabs. Only let's me know I'm about to close multiple tabs. How do I get "save and close" back?

    Before installing 4.0.1 I could right click on the Firefox icon on my computer's taskbar and hit close window. It would then give me the option to "save tabs and quit" or "close all tabs."
    Now it just alerts me that I'll be closing multiple tabs.
    It was convenient to be able to close Firefox and open it with all of the tabs in place. There is nothing more irritating than having multiple tabs lost because your computer did an update overnight and restarted. Also it was helpful when you wanted to run a tun-up or cleaner that asked you close out of your browser for optimum result's.
    How do I get "save and quit" back?
    Thanks

    Firefox now always stores the old session, and you can access it by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session"
    If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
    # Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
    # Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    # Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
    # Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''
    If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
    # Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
    # Go to the General panel
    # Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
