Don't like IOS7 can I downgrade to IOS6

don't like IOS7 can I downgrade to IOS6

There is a short period (about 5 days usually) where Apple keeps a signed version of the previous OS available (primarily for developers). During that period IF you have a valid .ipsw file on your computer (if you updated over-the-air this wouldn't work) then you could wipe your iPhone by putting it in DFU mode and update from the .ipsw file on your computer.
This won't work now. There is no approved means to roll back. You can use Google to find other means if you want to assume that risk.

  • I tried starting with the Start Page, don't like now can't stop it even unchecking the option box and deleting the location

    Wanted to see if I liked starting on the Start Page, but just an unnecessary step prefer starting in the folders already. So unchecked the box in the tools/options but it still opens on the Start Page. How can I get it to stop? I even deleted the page location link and it still opens on the Start Page.

    OK it's not the "Start Page" it's the home page for the first email account. I prefer it open to the last folder when last closed.

  • Can I downgrade to IOS6 now?

    IOS7 makes my ipad slowly work. I want to downgrade it but I can't now, right? I have to do my assignment on it so help me, please. IOS7's not ok for me now.

    Downgrading of any version of iOS is not and never has been supported by Apple. If you search the web, you may find instructions that may work, but you're on your own should any problems arise. For many people it goes without problems, but for some it's reportedly disabled their devices.

My son has severe autism and loves the youtube app from 5.1.1 now that my wife upgraded to 6.0  there is no favorite tab and he doesn't have any of his shows available, plus seaching is a nightmare for him.  My boy is 4 years old and doesn't ask for much, he is a mess without his youtube app and I'm really struggling to keep him calm, I need help with getting the old version back.  If anyone out there knows how I can possibly go back please let me know, I'm drowning here and can't handle this any longer.  Again I have to restate that my son has sever autism and only has a few things that he can manage on his own, this being one of them.  HELP ME PLEASE!!! he has an Ipod touch 4g

  • Can I reinstall Mountain Lion if I don't like Maverick???

    I want to try installing Maverick on a one-month old Macbook Air.  (purchased in September of 2013)
    If I don't like it, can I reinstall Mountain Lion???

    Yes you can. Just make sure to go and download the installer under the Purchased tab on the Mac App Store. I have to warn you first that you'll have to do a clean install of the OS if you want to revert back to 10.8 after upgrading to 10.9 which is I why I recommend that you do a backup beforehand using Time Machine or something similar. That way you could restore your applications and user accounts with files using Migration Assistant. Let me repeat it one more time, once you are in 10.9, the installer for OS X Mountain Lion won't allow you to downgrade using it while booted from your main volume. Look around online on how to create a bootable USB installer so that you can reformat the internal drive and do a clean install of OS X. Hope this may of help.

  • I HAVE FF 3.6.21 DOES FF4 INSTALL OVER IT AND IMPORT ALL SETTINGS, BOOKMARKS, ETC AND CAN I GO BACK TO 3.6.21 IF I DON'T LIKE 4

    I HAVE FF 3.6.21 Is FF4 a completely new install or does it install over the existing installation. Does it import settings, bookmarks, stored passwords, etc or do I have to add all that. Lastly, if I don't like FF4 can I go back to FF3 easily

    Firefox 4 is no longer available. If upgrading, the only version that you can/should go to is Firefox 6.0.1, the current version. Firefox 7.0 is scheduled to be released on 09-27-2011 ('''''scheduled date is subject to change'''''). After Firefox 4.0, each upgrade replaces the prior version and the prior version is "abandoned" as far as security and stability updates are concerned.
    Installing Firefox 6 will preserve your prior bookmarks, passwords, etc. You can/should make a backup of your personal information for safekeeping; what if you have a hard drive failure?
    *See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information] '''''and''''' [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_backup Profile backup]
    To test the new version 6.0.1 and leave your current Firefox 3.6.21 intact, you can install Firefox Portable. Firefox Portable is not produced by Mozilla (but is based on Firefox released versions) and is not supported on this site -- has its own support forum (see below). Firefox Portable installs in a separate folder on your hard drive and keeps its profile (personal information) separate so that it does not interfere with your current Firefox installation settings or personal information (bookmarks, passwords, etc.). You can also install Firefox Portable on a USB/thumb/pin/jump drive.

  • I don't like Firefox 4, and I want to downgrade to the previous version. Can anyone tell me how to do this?

    I don't like Firefox 4 because I can't tag things on delicious, AND I can't save multiple sessions. The "Restore Previous Session" button isn't helpful because sometimes a new session launches from an email link, and then the previous session I wanted to save is lost. If I can't downgrade, I'll switch to Google Chrome. I am not interested in hearing about workarounds. Thanks.
