Is there a way to revert to a previously saved Garage Band file?

My daughter was working on Garage Band and couldn't find the tracks she thought she had saved. I know on PCs there is auto save and there's usually a back up file in the temp folder. Is there the same thing for the Mac? Help! Thanks.
Sam

No, backup files are only created for documents, but not for project packages, like GarageBand projects. But GarageBand should prompt you to save the project, when you try to quit and the project has not been saved. Did GarageBand crash, so it could not save the project? In that case, the recorded audio should be still in the project package. Your daughter could try to ctrl-click the project ( the My Song.band) she created and use "Show Package Contents". The "Media" folder should have her recorded adio files.
And if she is lucky, Time Machine may have save the previous version as hourly backup, if she is using TimeMachine and the backup drive was connected.

Is there a way of reverting back to previous firefox version

I use firefox extensively for development. I use firebug and dojo. It seems that the new version (Firefox 4) is far slower than the previous version and sometimes hangs completely. I believe this may be caused by Firebug doing a lot of work but it never used to happen. Also firebug doesn't quite seem to work as well with dojo script. Previously if you did a dojo.require to drag in a js script file then you could automatically see it through firebug. Now have to put files I want to debug with script tags. Is there a way of reverting back to previous firefox version?

No need to re-install plugins or extensions.
You can install them both but there are a few steps to take.
When you install the second version of Firefox use the custom installation option and choose a different location to install Firefox.
In order to use both versions, you need to create a new profile for the second version of Firefox (Firefox stores user data in the profile). Using the same profile with different versions can cause problems. Once you create a new profile you can copy certain data such as bookmarks and passwords between them. You can also use Firefox Sync to keep the profile synchronized. Finally, you will need to set up shortcuts to launch the correct profile for each version.
The following links show how to do this:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Creating_a_new_Firefox_profile_on_Windows
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Shortcut_to_a_specific_profile
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/firefox-sync (only needed for Firefox 3.6, it is built into Firefox 4)
An alternative way of testing Firefox 4 is to install the portable version on your hard drive. It will use its own profile folder and not interfere with the other version of Firefox. You can get the portable version from http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable

No.

Is there a way to get a version of the Garage Band app that runs on version 5.1.1? I have an iPad 1 and can't get any higher iOS. The App store is telling me that Garage Band only runs on iOS 7.

Unfortunately the answer is still no.

Is there a way to revert to the previous version of the podcast app?

I really hate the new podcast app version 1.2.1. There has to be a way to revert to the previous version. Don't know why Apple doesn't offer it's users the option of staying with the version that we prefer. We're asked to update without knowing if we'll like the new version. No trial period - just take a chance. I did, and I regret it. I will never click on an update again. I went from loving Apple to hating them overnight.
There must be a work-around somewhere. Please help if you can.

Thanks for the response. Not sure if it's backed up, and not sure how to locate if it is. I downloaded the update directly onto ipod touch - and when I re-synched apps from itunes library to try to install previous ver. it changed to the new podcast ver. 1.2.1. Several moths ago I reverted to an older v. of itunes library(10.0?) through a folder called "previous itunes libraries" in my itunes folder - but I don't remember what I did - someone instructed me. Any chance of that containing older podcast v?
Unfortunately I'm not too tech savvy

Is there any way to revert to the previous version of Firefox.

when i try to open my webmail, using the appropriate password i get the following message: https://webmail.primus.ca/parse.php?file=html/english/xp/xp.html&frame=1
I'd hardly find it necessary to contact the web provider, except for that, so i'd be content to go back a step to be able to NOT have to use Internet Explorer just to check email when i'm on the road

This is a Thunderbird forum. Are you actually asking about Thunderbird or really about Firefox?
In both cases, the answer is pretty much the same; go to the site (below), drill down to the version you want, on the platform you use (windows/mac/linux), in the language you use, and download it, then run it.
There is no need to uninstall the previous version.
Thunderbird email: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/releases/
Firefox browser: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/
I think most "usability" issues with Thunderbird would be addressed by using TB v24.6. I'm not so sure what would have changed in Firefox to annoy you. ;-)

Is there a way to record karoke track + vocals in garage band ipad

Hello
i was wondering if anyone could walk me throught the steps of recording a vocal/karoke track on garage band for ipad, i already have the song on my device
thanks

if you go to the loops logo at the top, a bunch of beats will show up. at the top of that screen, there should be double button that says apple loops on one side and music on the other side. tap music and choose the song you want. put that song in your track and if you want to record, itll play the song in the background as you record your singing. good luck!

Any way to revert to a previously saved version?

Help!
I merged layers in order to print to PDF ... then when I closed the document I must have 'saved changes'. Now when I open the pse file there are no layers to work with. I need to make edits now ... is there anything I can do short of starting over??
Thanks.

Looking around, it seems probably that my layers are gone for good
DRAT!!

Is there a way to revert to the original form responses in Forms Central?

I was reviwing responses in Forms Central, and I noticed a few cells had been shaded as "Manually edited." I am the only person with access to our responses, so I'm guessing that as I was using my scroll button on my mouse, I accidentally changed something. (My mouse has been acting up lately, and the computer has registered a double click when I only single clicked.)
Is there a way to revert back to the original form responses? I caught this too late for be able to just use "undo."

HI,
>> but it only let me go back one step. It didn't let me go back any further.
OK, then maybe you made (by accident) some changes prior to your current editing session. You might have edited the form, made 'change1', closed the form, and reopened it. At this point you cannot use Edit / Undo to undo 'change1'.
It looks like you need to undo your changes manually. You could take a look at the View Responses table history to see what you had before. At the View Responses tab, click on the clock-history icon on your lower right corner, you will see the History bar and you can select a previous version to see.
Thanks,

I bought a macbook pro on november 2011 wich had Lion OS installed on it. Playback plug-in in Mainstage 2.1.3 does not play files from the beginning (it leaves out like 50 mSecs or so). Is there a way to revert to Snow Leopard OS?

...Is there any way I can install a partition that runs snow leopard on my early 2011 MB pro with what I have (new SSD, New RAM, Current version Lion running, no external drive, lack of original snow leopard disks [I lost them ] and the general 10.6.3 snow leopard boot disks)...
As the last post suggests, call Apple and order a replacement original disc for about $17. They will ask you the model and serial numbers.
Your retail version of Snow Leopard OS 10.6.3 will not work on that Mac as it requires a minimum of OS X 10.6.7 to boot and operate.
Another alternative is to again borrow another Mac to install your retail Snow Leopard into an external HD or partition, upgrade it to 10.6.8 and then clone it back to a partition on your MBP.

Is there a way to revert to Lion?

Is there a way to revert to Lion from Mountain Lion?
Mountain Lion is an ongoing disaster for me. Time Machine doesn't work right, I am unable to Restore, unable to reinstall anything meaningful from Time Machine backups and unable to pull my data from Time Machine into a clean install. What makes it more frustrating is that I see many similar questions here in the groups and on the 'net, but no usable fixes. Even pondini's helps have gotten me nowhere.
This is the first time in 16 years that I've been unhappy with an Apple product and right now I wish I'd left Lion installed and sat Mountain Lion out. I've literally wasted WEEKS trying to find workarounds for things that have traditionally just worked.

The best what you can do - Clean install of Lion. (i agree with you about Mountain Lion, but Lion is more rubbish than ML, i think Snow Leopard is still the top of the hill

Back to Snow Leopard from Lion install method
Read and print out these instructions, your computer is going to be offline and you wil be cutoff from help until your machine is restored.
Clear the Desktop, Downloads and Trash of anything you wish to keep by placing their files in the respective Documents, Music, Pictures, Movie folders.
If you have a TimeMachine drive, update it and disconnect for the duration of this restore time. It will be your second backup system and will have to be wiped and setup again after successfully going back to Snow Leopard if it was connected to the OS X 10.7 boot drive. If it wasn't, then leave it disconnected without updating to Lion.
Backup ALL your Users folders (Documents, Pictures, Movies, Music etc) manually (drag and drop methods) to a (not TimeMachine) external powered drive (HFS+ journaled formatted in Disk Utility) and disconnect, your going to be wiping the entire disk of ALL DATA. (warning, everything will be gone and not recovered)
Here we go!
Hold c and boot off the 10.6 installer disk that comes with your computer and second screen in just STOP.
Look at the Utilities Menu for Disk Utility.
On the left is the name of your hard drive maker, click it and Erase (format HFS+ Journaled), give it the same name as before, and click Erase...
This should wipe the drive of ALL partitions (GUID, OS X and 10.7 Recovery, Windows if present)
When it's done, quit and install OS X 10.6. Then install all your programs from fresh sources and validate/update.
When you setup a first account, use the same user name as before, this way you can simply drag and drop the content of your previous Users folders from the external drive right back into the new Users folders and everything should work peachy. Links in iTunes to music, playlists and iPhoto links especially.
Update OS X to 10.6.8 using the Combo Update for best results.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
(Note: If your original machine had 10.5 and you want the free iLife that comes with the disks with the computer, then you'll have to install 10.5 first using the same c boot/erase/format methods as above, then update to 10.6 via the disk, then Combo Update 10.6.8)
Final step optional but highly receommended.
A lot of people use a Carbon Copy Clone of their boot drive to a HFS+Journaled external drive as a "hold the option key" bootable backup in case something goes wrong with their boot drive or need to restore to a previous OS X version.. (in addition to TimeMachine drive for more immediate backups.)
It's not advised to have a Bootable Clone and a TimeMachine partition on the same external drive, as two drives gives hardware protection in case one fails.

Is there any way to revert to an older version of iTunes?

GoodReader (an iOS app) has a 32 bit windows program (GoodReader USB) that allows easy drag and drop transferring of folders and files between my windows computer and my iPad.
Upgrading to the newest 64 bit version of iTunes disabled the GoodReader USB transfer program. The program doesn't think iTunes is installed (because it only works with the 32 bit version). GoodReader hasn't upgraded the transfer program yet and I've been told they might not. I use this program several times per week and it's a hardship to lose its functionality.
I uninstalled iTunes, downloaded a 32 bit version of iTunes and tried to install it. Unfortunately, the install doesn't work. The install program essentially insisted that I needed the 64 bit version. I've reinstalled the 64 bit iTunes 12 for the time being. Is there any way to revert to the last version of iTunes that was running on my computer. Alternately, is there another iOS app (similar to GoodReader) with as good a USB transfer program that lefts me drag and drop folders and files onto my iPad?

Try iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - itunes64setup.exe (2015-01-28)
which is a 64-bit installer for the 32-bit version of the core application, similar to previous 64-bit releases.
You may need to fully uninstall all Apple components before switching. If you run into problems see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates. Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip. Also links to the previous build if required.

Yes, you stop using the same Apple ID under Settings > iCloud.
