How do I restore 3GS  to 5.0.1 version and not update to 5.1.1 ?

As the title says, I'd like to restore phone to current 5.0.1.  I don't want to update to 5.1.1 as I've read
many problems with this update for 3GS model.  I'm not sure if I need a new battery or a restore but phone
shuts off and show 60-70 battery life left.

Ok thank you for the comments.  I backed up to Itunes and did a restore to latest software.  I was able to get all my info/apps,ets.. back on no problem.  But phone is still shutting down and I have to plug in to start back up.  I had 86% charge and it still shut off and I had to plug in charger.  It also will not allow me to do a reboot and goes to voice control when i hold power and start button together.  I have to press front and back below power button while I press power button to shut off.
Man I can't wait for my new iphone 5 to arrive.  I'm not a techi and don't have time for this.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • HT1414 How do I restore from an earlier icloud backup that is not showing up for my ipad?

    How do I restore from an earlier icloud backup that is not showing up for my ipad?

    You can't.  Usually you have only the most recent backup to choose from (I do).  Some users has said they get 3 to choose from (this is the max as stated in Apple literature).  You can't go back further than that.
    The usual advice is that all photos should be synced to a computer (too many users have lost some/all their photos doing a restore - don't trust them solely to icloud).  If you've been doing that, you can find them on your computer.

    How can I restore my calendar from yesterday's version on my Mac?

    I wasn't syncing it with anything.  I had plugged in an upcoming drs appt, apparently something was still open on my calendar when I received a call. Took the call and after I hung up I had my phone face down on my lap in the car.  Had intended to go back to the calendar when I reached my destination. When I got there and looked at my calendar, absolutely nothing was on it.

    Go to to your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder in the Finder and then enter  Time Machine.  Go back to the last backup that has the domain file, select it and use the Restore button.

  • How to recover my iPhone 6 from disabled without losing my data as the backup in my iTunes is old and not updated.

    Hi,
    I have iPhone 6 and the after the screen has broken the phone was starting to enter random passcode from itself until its locked and disabled. I have replaced the screen with a new one and I need to make a backup of my data in the phone and not reset or restore from the phone backup in my iTunes as it's old and not updated. Kindly advise me how to make this task as I have important data I need to not lose.
    Best regards,

    You cannot now. The only way to reset the passcode and remove the disabled status is to restore the device. There is no way to make a new backup now.  That is actually the whole point of the passcode attempt limitation and the disabling of the device - to keep someone without the passcode from getting at your data. Once disabled, your sole single recourse is to restore it in order to be able to do anything with it.
    At this point you can restore from your existing backup, or as new. Either way, you've already lost the current data on the device.

  • How can I print just a part of the page and not the full page with Adobe Reader v 10.1.2?

    how can I print just a part of the page and not the full page with Adobe Reader v 10.1.2? I need to print a engineering print with lot of information but information is too small in letter size and I don't have a plotter.

    Two ways to print a portion of a page: zooming or using the Snapshot Tool.
    ZOOMING:
    Zoom into the area you want to print.
    Click the Print icon.
    Under "Pages to Print", make sure "Current view" is selected under "More options" (you may need to click "More options" to open it).
    If you aren't satisfied with the preview, try clicking "Fit" under the Size button.
    SNAPSHOT
    Choose Edit > Take A Snapshot.
    Drag a rectangle around the area you want to print. 
    Click the Print icon.
    Under "Pages to Print", make sure that "Selected Graphic" is selected under "More options".
    To enlarge the snapshot to fit the sheet of paper, choose "Fit" under the Size button.
    Hope this helps!

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem.  Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • When i burn videos to a dvd-r disc it works on my macbook but not on a windows/pc or my dvd player. How can i make it work on all the above and not just a mac product?

    when i burn videos to a dvd-r disc it works on my macbook but not on a windows/pc or my dvd player. How can i make it work on all the above and not just a mac product?

    Unfortunately, the recording & movie industry does not respect the rights of the people who make them money, and thus you can only use the paid-for content in ways they see fit. Even if I lived in a bunker where no one else could possibly see the movie I paid for, therefor I'm not 'sharing it illegally', I would still not be allowed in a blue moon to copy that movie to DVD for TV viewing. Someone will tell you to get an AppleTV. How about Apple give us one for free? Until this changes, people wanting to use their content in multiple locations will continue to download music & movies via torrents, legally or illegally.
