How do I install the latest compatible version of an app on an earlier version of iOS

Hi, I have a iPhone 4S, 64GB memory, 20GB free running iOS 6.1.3 (yes, yes, install the latest version of the iOS ... I am otherwise happy with the way the iPhone has worked since purchasing it 3 years ago).
Last week, an app I regularly use, notified to be updated (11C Pro HP scientific calculator by RLM Software). I duly performed the update, but when I went to use the calculator, it appears that it is not compatible with the iOS ...
According to the developer, the Apple app store is supposed to check the iOS version before it allows the download and update install (this does not appear to have been done in this instance).
The developer directed me to an Apple page, Install the latest compatible version of an app on an earlier version of iOS or OS X that shows a way to roll back to a prior version compatible with the iOS installed, however, I cannot find precisely where the "Purchased screen on your iOS device" is.
If they mean the Purchases screen on the App store app, that shows a big blank nothing despite a considerable number if iOS app purchases since 2011.
Does anyone have a clue as to what Apple mean in the above link or know of some way to prevent the App store from changing (without checking the installed iOS) working apps before upgrading?
Cheers, all the best, Peter

    I am running Photoshop CC 2014 on Windows 8.1 with an AMD quad core processor and AMD E1-2100 APU with AMD Radeon HD 8210 Graphics Card. I have installed the latest driver version 13.152.0.0. When I activate puppet warp, the mesh appears over the image and I can place the first pin.  However, when I go to add the second pin, Photoshop crashes. I have tried with on a new, blank file, with just a few lines on it, but, as soon as I place the first pin, the image disappears, and then, as soon as I click anywhere else in the image, Photoshop crashes. I have followed all the online advice about settings under the Preferences/Performance interface, but nothing fixes the problem. Can anyone please help?

    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop and of Bridge, machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, video card specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you.
    A screen shot could be very helpful too.

    You seem to have an iTunes problem and not an iPod problem.  I suggest posting in the iTunes forum.
    How areyou doing the download?
    From Apple's site?
    Via the Apple downloader
    PC or Mac?

  • I have an Ipod touch updated to last available ios 4.2.1. How can I get the last compatible versions of the apps?

    I have an Ipod touch updated to last available ios 4.2.1.
    How can I get the last compatible versions of the apps?
    In the appstore there are only the lat app versions, most of them are incompatible with my device.
    I know that previous versions of these apps were compatible with my ipod.
    Can all download them someway?
    thanks

    The problem is: I never had the compatible versions. But I want them, I'd buy them if I could.
    So I'm stuck with my Ipod, which can't be upgraded anymore to higher IOS versions, and with the appstore, that does not offer older versions; versions that have existed and still exist, perhaps in the recycle bin of some users, or somewhere in the appstore servers.
    I know, its a policy, just to sell more devices. Will not work with me. I'm not buying more Ipods

    Like I said, I have a mid-2007 MacBook (note that it is NOT a MacBook Pro) and I want to install the latest possible version of OS X on it. I would like to know what the latest version that it can handle is. I know that the latest version of OS X is Mavericks, but I'm pretty sure that won't work on it, so will Lion or Snow Leopard?

  • How can I install the latest Camera Raw?  I've just bought a Nikon D610 and am shooting in RAW but my CS5.1 won't open the files.  I'm running CR version 6.7.0.339 but I can't install more up to date one as only running Windows Vista.  Please help!

    I also tried to install the latest DNG converter and that looks to have worked but not quite sure what's happened as I still can't open the files.  Thanks in advance for any help.

    You can purchase an upgrade, but the only options available as a qualifying previous product are CS5 and CS5 Extended and Acrobat X Suite.  It isn't entirely clear if CS5 also includes CS5.1 or not, so I'd suggest using the Chat Now button over at the side to clarify.
    To get to this listing, you can go to www.adobe.com then click Search and type in Photoshop CS6 then click the Buy button next to Photoshop CS6 in the results Creative Suite 6 then edit your cart to make it an upgrade:
    You can also choose the Extended version of PS CS6 which is more money and can additionally do things with video and sequences of images and maybe 3D, although I'm not exactly sure at this point since I already have PS-CS6 Extended as part of my CC Photography Plan PS-CC+LR for $10/month.

  • How can I install the 32-bit version of Lightroom 4.4 on my 64-bit Windows 7 system?

    I need to install the 32-bit version of LR 4.4 on my 64-bit Windows 7 system because, for some reason, LR 64-bit is not compatible with something in my computer system.
    How can I make this happen?
    Thanks,
    Mary

    The first stage of the installation process for a download is to extract all the installation files into an "Adobe" folder. Go find that folder and look inside, and down at the bottom level of the folder hierarchy are two files: Setup32.exe and Setup64.exe. So uninstall the 64bit version and double-click on "Setup32.exe" to install the 32 bit version.
    BTW, what problems are you having with the 64 bit version?
