Can a previous iOS be installed on iPod Touch?

I have an iPod Touch, Gen 5, that has iOS 8.3 running.  I updated the OS last month and since then I am unable to use my Bose MiniLink Bluetooth Speaker using Bluetooth.  Prior to the update the Bose system was easily detected so, after finding that resetting/wiping my iPod clean did NOT fix the problem, I am left to believe the problem is with iOS 8.3. The iPod does detect my MacBook Pro laptop, just not the Bose speaker so maybe it's a "driver" problem but cannot find anything about this on either the Bose web site, nor Apple support board/discussions.
Sooooo..... do you know if a prior iOS can be installed "over" the current one and, if so, can you either direct me to a site that explains how to do this, or provide instructions on how to do so?
Thank you, in advance, for your assistance.

No. Apple has never approved a method of downgrading iOS.
What did Bose have to say when you asked them about compatibility of speakers with iOS 8?

    anybody knows if I can download IOS 6 to my IPOD TOUCH 3rd generation?

    No, you can't. You may be able to get compatible application versions by downloading the current ones to a computer, signing into the iTunes Store with the same Apple ID on the device, and trying to download them there.

    I have a brand new ipod touch 5g and i saw that apple relesed ios 7. Can i get it on my Ipod? Please help...

    I have an iPod touch 5th Generation too, and we are lucky. Not only will iOS 7 be available on our devices, but it will allow ALL the new features, like the live photo filters, AirDrop, Control Center, etc, besides a few like the compass and level app because the hardware is incompatible.

  • HT5052 How can I get ios 5 for my iPod Touch without downloading iTunes 11? iTunes 10 and above screw up .mov readibility in Final Cut Pro, so I do not want to update iTunes.

    Any iTunes above 10 will screw up .mov accessibility in FCP, so I do not want to download iTunes 11 just to get this iPod Touch updated to 5 or 6.
    Can I download the update some other way?

    If you have a 4G iPod (one with cameras) you can only go to iOS 6.2.1 and that requires iTunes 10.7 or above.
    If you have a 3G you can go to 5.5.1 with iTunes 10.5 or later.
    A 2G can only go to 4.2.1

    you can update on another computer with the right version of iTunes but you will not be able to sync with your computer unless you update iTunes on your computer.

    Did you set up the Mail app as follows:
    Mail
    If you want to check your iCloud Mail, you can do so by visiting icloud.com from a Mac or PC (as long as it meets the browser requirements for icloud.com). Alternatively, you can configure a mail application that supports IMAP via SSL for use with iCloud Mail. More information is available here.

  • How can i get ios 6 on my ipod touch?

    Since I have an older version ipod ive been trying to downlaod games or apps and it would never let me without ios 6

    To more easily find compatible apps:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.
