Help, I just got OS 6 and I want OS 5 back.
Hey
I just got OS 6 and i dislike it, I am much more comfortable with OS 5, so I would like to downgrade back to it. Is this possible? I really want my OS 5 back, so please help, thanks.
Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
An old saying...
The best device for anyone is the one they become the most used to
I might venture to guess that if you give yourself time, you might grow to like it.
But, if you insist...from a PC, you can install any OS package to a BB via this procedure:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
Note that while written for "reload", it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC. You can even use a different carriers OS package by simply inserting, between steps 1 and 2, the deletion, on your PC, of a file named VENDOR.XML. Be sure that you remove, from your PC, any other BB device OS packages as having more than one installed to the PC can cause conflicts with this procedure.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:

Help. Just got the latest and greatest ipod touch. When trying to setup icloud, my email address is verified but when I touch settings, icloud, account tries unsuccessfully to verify account.
Why am I sometimes asked to verify my Apple ID by email?
When you create a new Apple ID or make certain changes to your account, Apple will require you to sign in by following the link in a verification email. This is to help protect your identity and keep your account secure. Some Apple services, such as FaceTime and GameCenter, require email validation.
How do I verify my Apple ID by email?
Simply follow the link in the verification email that says "Verify Now." Sign in with your current Apple ID and password, then click Verify Address. You can also verify by signing in at My Apple ID. You'll receive an email prompting you to verify. -
I have just got an iPad and I want the music to be transferred through my iPod touch using iCloud but I didn't get the music from iTunes so I don't think it will let me do it. Do you have any tips that could help me?
Only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view.
Photos that were synced from a computer are deleted by moving/removing/de-selecting them from where they were synced from and then re-syncing. If you want to remove them all then normally you could just sync an empty folder (in terms of photos) to the iPad, but as you don't want to sync at the moment you can't do that.
You can reset the iPad back to factory settings and start from scratch with it : Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings -

I just got an iPad and I want to create a photo book help
I just got an iPad and my husband and I both have iPhones and my aunt has a Mac computer and she created some awesome photo books and I want to make some books can u please tell me how to get this iPhoto! Is it an app or what?
iPhoto is a part of the iLife suite that comes on all new Macs and can be purchased for Macs in the App Store - it is not an iPhone app nor is it currently an iPad App
So add a Mac to your iPhones and iPad - you will love it just as much

Just got mountain lion and I want ical to email me reminders
I just downloaded mt lion and i was wondering how I go about getting my ical events emailed to me as a reminder?
Thanksim sorry ,i phrased this wrong ,it should ask .How can I set my events to default to email from ical rather than a sound .
I have events going up to a year in advance and the only way I see to change the reminder is to edit each event one at a time.I would love to set it up one time for default. -
need help with iCloud sign up. Says I already have sign in but when iut password reset says wrong answers.
You need 8 characters or more to connect.

I just got my S3 and I wanted to know if the old sim from my Droid razr would be ok?
I got Verizon to swap my razr for a galaxy S3 and just wanted to know if I need a new sim card?
I don't want to fry the phone. ( I had a few reps tell me they fried phones with sim swapping or some thing like that.)
ThanksIt should be fine as long as it is the same size, I used the same SIM card through several phones [the same phone but none the less the same as switching phones].
and it is most likely impossible to fry a phone from a SIM card it is not like the card gives off electricity, the only thing that could get fried would be the SIM if you did something seriously wrong, sounds like another uninformed REP or they were trying to get you to pay for something.
it looks like it uses the same sim so you should be good. -
So I am hoping that I can just do CC on my Mac and does the Photoshop & lightroom does that just automatically com the Bridge or is that a separate cost?
Thank youIf you have a CS6 licensed version then you would need to request a platform swap to be able to use CS6 on the Mac. Order product | Platform, language swap
If you subscribe to the Cloud then you could have it installed on either or both machines since the Cloud allows for mixed platform use. -
I just got an iphone4s and i want to transfer the camera photos from my iphone 4
i was wondering if there is a way to tranfer photos from the camera not the libary photos from my iphone 4 to my iphone 4s?
Copy your iPhone 4 photos to your computer (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083), put them in a folder, they sync them to your 4S by selecting to sync this folder on the Photos tab in your iTunes sync settings.

You can not install it.
Only apps from the official Apple App Store can be installed. -
i just got a ipod and i can't find my wi-fi password im so mad i have alot of networks but it wont let me make a password and i have tried to find my wi-fi password is there an app or something that can help me get wi-fi on my ipod i feel so sad knowing that i cant even do anything with it
You need to contact the people who administer the networks to get the passwords for the networks. If there was such an app as you are asking for then passwords for wifi networks would be worthless.

DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW I CANT DELETE MY APPLE ID I JUST GOT A NEW AND NO LONGER NEED THE OLD 1 HELP PLEASE
As far as I know they can't be deleted, just remove any personal info from it (credit card details etc) and stop using it.
If you downloaded any content via it then you will need to remember it and it's password, as content is tied to the account that bought/downloaded it, so if you move to a new computer you'll need to authorise the account on it if you want to use any of its content there (or if you bought apps with it you'll only be able to download updates to them via that account)
