I do not want to restore my phone!
If by 'un up-date' you mean you want to go back to a previous version you can't as its not supported by Apple.
As for the error message what did it say?
If you didn't make a backup before doing whatever it is you are trying to do then your photos are likely lost. -
Why can't I update to the latest version of itunes. My computer tells me an error occured and if it happens again to load manually
Had exactly same problem on iPad1. "Unable to check for update. An error occurred while checking for a software update". Been getting this since 3/7/2012. Apple support said probably server overload. Checked these comments and found answer that worked.
-- Reset device
. Backup your iPhone/iPad to iCloud (very important). Settings>iCloud> Storage and Backup>Backup Now (at the bottom)
. Erase your device. Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content And Settings
. Device will reset and wipe itself
. When it restarts follow the instructions on screen and setup your device.
You're choices here do not really matter except for restoring From a backup.
Do not restore a backup, chose "Set up as new".
. When complete, the Software Update should now work which will install IOS 5.1
. When installed, Erase the device again (see Above).
. Once erased, follow the Wizard but this time select that you wish to restore from a backup
In iCloud. Select the backup that you took in first step.
. Your device should be back to normal and with IOS 5.1.
This takes time to complete but it worked. Thanks to Glosdeveloper for this. By the way this was an "over the air" update (as opposed to plugged in. -
WWhen I set up family sharing i did it with me as family organizer, but as my spouse is the organizer I had to leave the "family" I created and join his. But while setting it up an error occurred, and the screen went blank. Now I tried to join his family sharing again, and my phone keeps telling me I can't because accounts can only join families twice a year.
I Don't really want to wait 364 days from now, is there a way in which I can reset my accoint so I can join family sharing again?
Apple support doesn't have a solution for me yet!
KInd regardsThis morning I looked at my family sharing account again an IT WORKS NOW! Think Apple has done a reset to my account, though I'm not exactly sure why! So I hope it works for you guys as well!

HI, I recently upgraded my operating system IOS 5.0.1 on an iphone 3gs. My question is, how do I get the text messaging preview to just pop up so that I can see the name only when the lock screen is on? The conventional ways of doing this, such as using turning off the SMS preview under the "passcode lock", well that option no longer exists, or if it does, I'm somehow missing it.
When I go to the "messages" setting under settings on my phone, I still don't see an option of turning it off.
If I can just get the name of the person sending the message, as I had it before, I'd be happy.
Help!That option still exists in Settings > Notifications > Messages > Show Prview (OFF) and View in Lock Screen (ON). Here's how to configure your Notifications and Notification Center for iOS 5: http://iphone-and-i.blogspot.com/2012/01/how-to-customize-notification-center-in .html

Can I de-install ios 8.0.2 from my iphone 5s
can I un-install ios 8.0.2 from my iphone 5s
I'm sorry, but Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. Because downgrading is unsupported by Apple we cannot discuss it on these forums.

Why can't I update iOS 7.0.6 from my iPhone 5? It keeps showing the message of an error occurred downloading. I need help.
If you're attempting to update over the air, try doing it through iTunes.

TS1398 After upgrade to iOS 6 i am not able to use wifi.
Connected, but no wifi traffic (at home).
After upgrade to iOS 6 i am not able to use wifi. I am connected to my home wifi but no trafic is coming through (safari, skype, twitter, app store). I have even tried recovery of my iPhone 4S using iTunes as well as using iPhone. But without effect.
Can not connect at all (at work).
Thank you for helpfull advice.
Vladimir
Please do not give me advice like:
switch proxy to auto
turn the flight mode on and off
turn the iphone on and off
release the ip
recovery the network settings
recovery firmware
I have tried all these, but did not work.
PS to apple:
I really did not expect this kind of trouble. If I would want to waste my time "repairing my device", I would buy an android phone!!!!!!This helped me solve the problem:
I have changed the security from TKIP to AES and now my wifi works fine /sofar/.

my iphone 4 i bought was jailbroken to ios 6.0.1 redsn0w but i tried to restore the iphone and now it keeps saying connect to itunes but when i connect and try to restore an "unknown error" occurs and it will not boot up whatsoever. please help!
If you want to solve your problems, unjailbreak. And don't do it again, because jailbreaking causes problems as you read about in that article. You can try Recovery Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

How to restore my iPhone 3G, ios 3.1.3, from backup without updating.
How do I restore my iPhone 3G, ios 3.1.3, from a backup without updating. I need to restore my ical entries and they are wiped out on both my main and backup drive and mobile me. My phone is also wiped out and I think my back up may be my only hope of getting that info back. Every time I try to restore using itunes 5.1 itunes only shows me th option to restore and update. Not just restore. Will the option to just restore from the last backup present itself in the process or do I need to shift click or something? Thanks for your help...
Can't I fake it out so it just leaves my ios as it is but restores files and settings? ios 4 doesn't really work well with the 3G models. They get slow and buggy. Isn't there some way to just put the ipsw file somewhere and point to it? Or, is there a way to just rip the ical info outof the backup files. That would work to.

Since the last update my Numbers app will not load in either my iPad3 or my iPhone5. It works fine on my MacBook Pro. The app starts but before I can open a file it closes. Is this a common problem and do you know hwo to solve it?
Hi Michael,
If you've already restarted both your iOS devices after the update and Numbers for iOS still won't load, you might try clearing the documents temporarily out of iCloud, opening the apps, closing them, and then placing the documents back in iCloud.
To do this, in Finder on your Mac, hold down the option key and then Go > Library > Mobile Documents > com~apple~Numbers. Move the documents there out to the Desktop or other location of your choosing. Then give iCloud time to sync. Then try opening Numbers on iPad and on the iPhone. If they open, then close them, and move the documents back into Library > Mobile Documents > com~apple~Numbers and let iCloud sync again.
That sometimes clears up the problem.
