How can I uninstall Mountain Lion and go back Lion?

I have tried everything. My MacBook Pro is just not the same since ML. I want to get rid of it and go back Lion. What is the easiest way to do so?

Clearing cache is a poor thing to do to improve system performance.
In fact, when you clear cache you actually slow your system down until cache is reloading again.
Yes, it is true cache can get corrupt and have to be cleared. This happens so infrequently that it is almost never a required solution unless you have problems that are specific to corrupt cache.
By the way why are you replying to my post when in fact your comments have nothing to do with my post at all.

  • How can I uninstall ilife 06 and go back to ilife 05?

    At least for idvd, it is such a pain. I need to get a project burned to dvd, and even though the sound files are playing in idvd and they are in the file, the sound files do not play when the dvd is burned.
    I've wasted too many DVD's and too much time trying to figure out what the problem is.
    Tried to install idvd 5 from the ilife 05 disk. It goes through the motions but didn't do anything.
    What files need to be deleted first?

    Are you really still running OS 10.3.8 as shown in your profile?
    My Panther machine is at 10.3.9.
    I'm only trying to run the iLife '06 applications on my Tiger machine with 10.4.4
    BTW, the iLife '06 box says "v10.3.9 or v10.4.3 or later. v10.4.4 recommended"
    If you really are still at 10.3.8, that might account for your problems.

  • How can I uninstall iDVD '08 and install iDVD '06?

    There's a reported bug among iDVD '08 users where burning
    large projects are resulting in audio synch problems near the
    end of the burned DVD.
    In other words, the audio slowly goes out of synch towards the
    end of burned projects.
    This is a problem inherent with 'DVD '08.
    I tried uninstalling iDVD '08 and replacing with '06 but it doesn't
    work. You try that and iDVD will not launch at all.
    Even tried to partition my drive and install iLife '06 to the partition
    but the system will not let me.
    Anyone have a solution how to completely uninstall iLife '08
    components and install iLife '06?
    Thanks

    I upgraded to iLife 08 from 06 (bad move). I couldn't install iMovie because my Mac is too old (must be Intel-based or comparable). iDVD didn't work--the document window was always black, even with a theme selected. The Virtual Band function in GarageBand did nothing whatsoever. I trashed the '08 applications, moved all Preferences files to my desktop, reinstalled iLife '06. Now, iDVD won't launch--just flashes the menu bar and exits back to the Finder. So, I have several DVD projects on my system that I cannot finish because I cannot reinstall iLife '06 (like the originator of this problem, "How can I uninstall iDVD '08 and install iDVD '06?") I hope someone has an answer as this is frustrating and costly to my small business.

  • How can i uninstall Windows 7 and remove the partition?

    how can i uninstall Windows 7 and remove the partition?  white unibody late 2009.  i cannot seem to find bootcamp either :/

    Open the Boot Camp Assistant in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder and use it to restore the drive to a single partition setup. If it's not there, use Pacifist to extract it from your install DVD and run the combo updater for your OS version.

  • Can I uninstall version 9 and put back version 8 ?

    I upgraded to version 9 of itunes but I don't like it, I liked the old show by genre on home page instead of the new itunes peddling particular artist and albums. Can I uninstall version 9 and put back version 8 ? does this matter to my iphone ?

    You can go back to version 8, but it isn't easy. iTunes 9 has already upgraded your library and you'll have to find your backup library to use with iTunes 8.
    I have found that the iTunes 9 store interface offers some advantages, but it takes some exploring to find everything. You can use the down arrows that appear as you mouse over each category at the top of the iTunes store home page to display whatever you like. For example, display a page of only music in a particular genre:
    Here is a tutorial in using the iTunes 9 store: http://www.apple.com/itunes/how-to/#video-explore
    If you really want to go back to iTunes 8, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2157090&tstart=180

  • HT1386 i have lost my pictures in my I POD while trying to dowen loade song to my I tune could you please let me know how can i get my pictures and songs back to my I.POD

    i lost all my songs and pictures i had on my I POD while doing so
    could you please let me know how can i get my pictures and songs back to the I POD?
    many thanks for your help

    - If you backed up the iPod after taking the photos then restoring from backup will recover the photos. To restore from backup see the restoring topic of:
    iOS: How to back up
    If you restore via iTunes make sure that autosyncing is turned off. Go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says prevent iPods...".
    - Otherwise if the photos ore not on the computer or iPod they are gone uless you can get them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
    iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

    Hi,
    [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/xmarks-sync/?src=search Xmarks] is a bookmarks/history/tabs backup/sync utility. It is not a feature of Firefox. It is an extension which had to be manually added or perhaps could have come with another extension.
    If you have registered with the service you have to enter the username and password to log in to the service. Otherwise try pressing the '''Esc''' key on the keyboard and after Firefox opens, go to '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons''', click Extensions on the left and look for Xmarks and '''Disable''' to disable it or '''Remove''' to uninstall it. If that doesn't work, start Firefox in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode.] In the first screen choose '''Disable all add-ons''' and '''Make Changes and Restart''' and repeat the above procedure, but this time, re-enable all the needed extensions except Xmarks. You may also have to re-enable the plugins after clicking '''Plugins''' on the left).

  • Can I uninstall an update and go back to older the version ?

    hi i have a macbook pro intel and i am using Mac osx 10.5.8, now i have a apple wireless keyboard, recently i just installed the "alluminium keyboard update 2" after which my keypad has stopped responding, i request is some one can offer a help ..... i just want to uninstall this update and go back to the older version .....     

    Hi,
    One simple way would be to completely uninstall your keyboard drivers, updated that they are, and reinstall from scratch, then deny the unwanted updates the right to install.
    Another way is to get details about the culprit by using Terminal and typing the following commands:
    grep swupd /etc/swupd/com.apple.server.swupdate.plist > ~/Desktop/update_list.txt
    (This will get you a list of software updates you've installed on you Mac, in text format, directly on your Desktop)
    Then:
    sudo rm -rf /usr/share/swupd/html/xxx-xxxx/
    (Where "xxx-xxxx" stands for the actual update number you want to delete)
    You'll have to reboot your Mac, and hope that the rollback that will ensue will take place without a glitch. You may find your keyboard unresponsive at first, time for the system to fetch the old driver back from it was stored.

  • After restoring how can I get my notes and photos back?

    I plugged my iPad then it shut down and when I plugged it again and it showed that I need to restore it..
    Now how do I get my notes and photos back...

    You'll have to resync using your own computer. It should restore from your backup.

  • How can I uninstall firefox 4 and return to the version prior?

    I would like to uninstall firefox 4 and return to the prior version. how can I do this?

    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 uninstall 3.0 and put 2.0 back on

    Hi,
    I regret installing 3.0. I want to remove it and and re-install 2.0. How can I do this?
    Tim

    You can't do anything with Voice memo. I just tuck mine on a back page of Apps that I never use.
    I would love to answer your question about photos/slide show, but I realized that I don't have any photos at the moment on my touch. I had to restore it earlier this week and I guess they got lost. And since I am creating a disk imaging of my primary hard drive, I really can't get to iTunes either.

  • How can I completely erase everything and re install lion for a fresh iMac?

    Restart from Lion's recovery partition by holding down the Option key at startup and tabbing to it, use it to erase the internal drive, and install a new OS.

  • How can I unintstall Firefox 7 and go back to 6?

    I have downloaded Firefox 7 because it said to upgrade. Well and good, but now my Norton Security Safe (Norton Toolbar) which has all my passwords no longer works. How can I get this back? It doesn't show up at all and I am having to check in to all my places manually. Pure pain. If there is no fix how do I uninstall 7 and get back to 6? I am not a geek so please do this simply.

    I did run a Norton Live update. I had the Firefox 6.0 version and it wanted to install the 7.0 update which does not support the Norton Identity Safe or toolbar. After restarting the computer, I now go to check for updates in Firefox and it states that I have the latest version of Firefox, which it says is 6.0. What happened to 7.0 and why can Norton not keep up with these things? I got a bad live update(Error# 8920223) with Norton last night that wanted me to uninstall NIS 2012 and later found out that Norton had severe problems with its update servers, and they said just to do nothing and wait up to a day. Mine came back in minutes, but Norton originally told me to uninstall everything immediately. Avast is sounding very good right now...

  • FF 4.0 incompatible with Norton 360. How do I uninstall 4.0 and go back to 3.6?

    I want to back out of FF 4.0 and go to older version 3.6 because I cannot use Norton 360 that I absolutely need and rely on. Can someone send a link about how to uninstall 4.0 and reinstall 3.6?

    Symantec are working on updates to make their add-ons work with Firefox 4. pending this, to revert 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.
