Hi, can I go back from software version OS X 10.8.1 (12B19) to my old software?

Which version old software?
Which exact model computer?
Did you make a complete clone backup of your old system before upgrading and are you prepared to have things revert to that?
Usually downgrading operating system requires a complete erase of the computer. You then clone a previous backup, or completely re-install the operating system and all software plus data files you put somewhere for safekeeping while doing all the other things. Also some of your data files may have been irrevocably updated to newer versions that will not open on the old system. Basically, downgrading is not simple unless you prepared for the eventuality in advance.

I can only use version 4.0 for my online college classes so how can I go back to using version 4.0?

I upgraded to version 5.0 but am unable to use because it is not supported with my online college platform. How can I go back to using version 4.0? If I do not find a solution I will have to find a new browser.

I had the same problem (issue with Google Apps and XUL runner etc) of needing to downgrade. To pull it off I went to the main Firefox download page (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/new/) and followed the link to OTHER SYSTEMS AND LANGUAGES which took me to a page that included a link on the right hand side to download Firefox 3.6.16.
(The stuff below pertains to Windows. If you are on a different OS your steps will vary)
To do the actual downgrade (and there may be some other steps that would be wise to take but this is what worked for me) I merely renamed "c:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox" to "c:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox bad" (in case I want to try troubleshooting the issue later) and then ran the "Firefox Setup 3.6.16.exe" file that downloaded from that link. That solved my problem and I'm back and running 3.6.16.
In case you don't feel comfortable changing things in your Program Files directory you might try a different approach and try uninstalling via the Control Panel and Add and Remove Programs (or whatever it is called on the version of Windows you are on) and then running the installation file. I didn't go that route so I can't tell you how well that might work.

I am using 10.7.4. How can I stop Preview from saving versions.

In Lion, 10.7.4 Prieview was changed to use Versions. This means the previous options of SaveAs is no longer available.
I want to be able to open a file in Preview and SaveAs (now Export) my changes, without having Preview then save those changes in the original file when I close the window. I know that I can use Revert to get back to the original, but is is time consuming and annoying to have to do so. How can I stop Lion from using versions??

Ummmm, could you ellaborate on how you plan to turn to Windows because iTunes (an application that runs on Windows) is running slow?

Verything wants to downloaEd as an index.php can I go back to earlier version?

Previous versions of iTunes won't use the iTunes library (newer version) file
Fortunately, iTunes makes backup copies of its library,
So when you reinstall, you have to delete (or rename just in case) library file, you have to copy (and rename) one the backups (usually the most recent one) to take its place
the library file is called         >>         iTunes Library (extension itl)
and should be in the          >>          Desktop\Libraries\Music\iTunes\           folder
the backups should be in the    >>     Desktop\Libraries\Music\iTunes\Previous iTunes Library\        folder
that should make iTunes work, wiith most or all of your library intact

You cannot downgrade the iOS, there is no supported method.
Google streetview was not lost, Google Maps were removed from iOS6 and replaced with Apple Maps.

Can i transfer music from ipod to a new computer i do not have my old computer

Can i transfer music from ipod to a new computer i do not have my old computer files as it crashed.

For purchased songs you can plug the iPod into you new computer and use the "File > Transfer Purchases from iPod" feature in iTunes. For music not purchased from the iTunes store you will need a third party program to help. There are a few of them out there, and they are easy to find on Google.

How can I get back an older version of a document in Pages from the icloud

In Pages I thought I could edit down and rename a document and it would keep the original intact - how can I get the original back?

If you resaved the file and changed its name it is wherever you saved it to.
If you changed the name of the open file then that is your only copy.
You can go back to previous versions by various methods. In Pages 5 it is:
Menu > File > Revert

How can I go back to the version before Firefox 4?

I use a program called RoboForm2Go which stores user names and passwords. I have installed them on a flash drive. I can't use that program with the new FF4, doesn't give me a toolbar for that program. It worked fine when I had the previous version of Firefox and would like to go back to that version.

To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.

How can I go back to previous version of firefox cause 4 sucks and I am going to have to go back to internet explorer?

This version is horrible, and I want to downgrade back to previous version if I can't then I am going back to internet explorer, the search engine is an aberration...just trying to perform a search for hotmail sign in page and had to click on have a dozen responses before I find the one I want where before was right there at the top. If I cannot go back to a previous version, just tell me so I can start using internet explorer, it is horrible as well but at least search engine was not as frustrating to use!!!!

Upgraded to FF5 a week ago, nothing but problems since; can I roll back to previous version!

I notice on the Help files that I am not alone in having problems with FF5. I have tried running in Safe Mode and am now stuck in this mode! Nothing including re-booting will shift it. PLEASE - how do I get back to previous version - 4.nn

First of all fix your starting in safe mode problem
* Firefox is stuck in Safe Mode | Troubleshooting | Firefox Help<br>https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox%20is%20stuck%20in%20Safe%20Mode
What you notice in Questions are problems that people ask for help with. Often there are solutions to those problems that do not involve going back to an earlier version. But without details of your problem one can only provide the information you ask for which is ''how to go back to a previous version''.
'''For those that really need an earlier version of Firefox''', find your system and the Firefox version you want in releases, download and start the install.
* ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/
When reinstalling Firefox from a download, Firefox must be down once the installation starts. When the installation finishes, don't let the install start firefox for you. Instead end the install and start Firefox in your normal manner, thus preventing creating a new profile which does not have your bookmarks cookies, etc (but your old profile would still be around and would).
You can make Firefox 4.0.1 and '''Firefox 5.0''' look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic
*[http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)]
If an extension worked in Firefox 4.0, it should be working in Firefox 5.0 as well.
* [http://blog.mozilla.com/addons/2011/05/21/firefox-5-compatibility-bump/ Firefox 5 Compatibility Bump]
You can force 5.0 "compatibility" with the "[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/ Compatibility Reporter]" extension, or with [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Extensions.checkCompatibility extensions.checkCompatibility] using about:config. ''Use at your own risk.''
'''Keep your extensions up to date''', don't wait for a Firefox update and then try to do everything after the Firefox update.
'''Research your''' extensions, some may have updates, some may be found in the developer comments or user comments on the add-on, or on the "'''View all versions'''" link which is part of the Release notes at the bottom of the add-on page.

My work laptop was re-imaged and they didn't save my bookmarks. Does Firefox store them somewhere off my computer so I can get them back from there?

Lost my bookmarks when my work computer was re-imaged due to a virus. In my profiles directory I don't see anything older than the date my system was re-imaged (4/1/11) so I don't think I can restore them from anything on my computer. I'm hoping that Firefox may have them backed up somewhere off my computer so I can restore them from there. Does anyone know if this can be done? Thanks!

Firefox makes bookmark backups to C:\Documents and Settings\{Username}\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\(random name).default\bookmarkbackups in JSON format. If it's in there, you can restore it: [[Backing up and restoring bookmarks]]
It's a good idea to backup manually occasionally though for just such an event as this. You can export them to a single HTML file which you can keep on a USB stick and then re-import them if the need arises.
