How do I restore from an earlier version?

I recently purchased a new iPad and in transferring data, one of my games did not load properly. I was told to restore through iTunes to an earlier version of the game, but I'm not sure of the best way to do so.

You can check for problems with the <b>places.sqlite</b> database file in the Firefox profile folder.

  • 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 to open project from an earlier version (RH x3) using RoboHelp 6.

    Hello everyone, I need your help. I have recently upgraded
    from RH x3 to RH V6. I have just completed the installation of RH6
    after spending long time with Adobe customer support as it took
    them long time to figure out how to provide me the unlocking key to
    install RH v6.
    BTW I have only installed RoboHelp 6 by itself. I did not
    install their Source Control because we already have Visual Source
    Safe which we have been using in our company.
    Also, since I had Adobe Reader 8 installed on my PC, I did
    not install Acrobat Element 7 either. As I suppose if Acrobat 7 or
    higher is installed RH v6 was not going to install Acrobat Element
    7.
    Well, now after I have installed RH v6, my first step is to
    find out how to open project from an earlier version (RH x3) using
    RoboHelp 6.
    RH x3 is installed on my old PC and I am working on my new PC
    where I have installed RH V6.
    Sorry, for providing you too many details, the purpose is
    only to give you a clear picture.
    Please, give me your feedback if I am doing everything
    correct and how should I open the project from an earlier version.
    Thanks

    Hi Peter,
    Thank you so much for the response. Actually, after I posted
    the question on Forum we had lost internet connection for some time
    and I just went ahead and tried it by myself.
    This is what I did – since we use MS Visual Source
    Safe, my all files were in the working folder of VSS in my c drive.
    I just clicked the Open tab/More Files in RoboHelp Starter and
    located the RoboHelp HTML Project File. It opened without any
    problem. Everything looks alright.
    Is there anything specific I should be checking to make sure
    if it is working fine in this version of RH. Because I did not
    create this project, somebody else did and I have never used this
    tool before this is the first time I will be using.
    I found your site pretty helpful though and it did have some
    information about Source Safe. I still have one question related to
    Visual Source Safe that Is RoboHelp v6 linked to VSS automatically
    and check the files out from it automatically whenever a project is
    opened or we have to manually set the link between the RH6 &
    VSS.
    In RH x3 whenever I would open a project it would prompt a
    message that in order to open this project the following files need
    to be writable, would you like to make them writable, selecting
    that option would checkout all the files from the VSS to make them
    writable. However, in RH V6 I opened an existing project and it
    opened without checking out the project files from VSS. Do you have
    any idea what’s happening?
    Ps: Do you recommend any book on RH 6 for starters or any
    other recommendation?
    Your help is always appreciated

  • I downloaded the newest version of firefox today 8/16/11 and now I cannot use Evernote (nor does clipmarks work from before) this is unacceptable. How do I return to the earlier version of firefox? Thank You, Carol Roberts

    I downloaded the newest version of firefox today 8/16/11 and now I cannot use Evernote (nor does clipmarks work from before) this is unacceptable. How do I return to the earlier version of firefox? If there is no way to do this, then I will have to use internet explorer so I hope you can help me with this. Thank You, Carol Roberts

    Until Evernote updates their add-on to mark it compatible with Firefox 6, you can use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-on-compatibility-reporter/ Add-on Compatibility Reporter] to try re-enabling it yourself.
    You can also downgrade to a previous version of Firefox from [https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/ this archive], but please be warned that some old versions of Firefox have known security bugs that are fixed in later versions.

  • I just reinstalled iTunes, and it will not open, as it says iTunes library itl. was created from an earlier version. Any idea what this means, and how I can get itunes to open?

    I just reinstalled iTunes, and it will not open, as it says iTunes library itl. was created from an earlier version. Any idea what this means, and how I can get itunes to open?

    Many thanks.
    That suggests that another application has stashed old QuickTime componentry in your system files.
    So just in case we'll go looking for older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
    First we'll need to change some view settings.
    In your Start menu, open Computer.
    In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
    In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
    Click OK.
    Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    If you have a 32-bit version of Windows, open the "System32" folder.
    If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, open the "SysWOW64" folder.
    What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

    How can I restore from a previous backup? I installed version 8 and is a disaster.

    Restoring previous backup will NOT revert to the older version of iOS.
    Downgrading iOS is not allowed.
    What are your problems?
    Maybe if you list them here we can help you to fix them.

  • HT1414 I'm trying to restore from an earlier backup but my iphone only shows the most recent. I'm on Windows Vista and found the backup folder. If I delete the recent files, will it force the iPhone to backup from the next older file?  Why doesn't it show

    I'm trying to recover a file and the app company said to restore from an earlier backup.  My iPhone only shows the most recent backup.  I've been searching the net for answers - I found the back up file and date sorted them (over 6mb of files).  How can I get my iPhone to restore from an earlier backup? 
    I am on Windows Vista so I don't have Time Machine. 
    I have backed up the backup folder so if I mess it up, I have it in a separate place.
    Can I just delete all the files with todays date in that backup folder and have it forced to the next oldest date?
    Why doesn't the iPhone show a list of the least several backups.
    Info:
    iPhone 4S
    Software version  5.1.1
    Backed up to computer through iTunes (not iCloud)

    As you backup the iPhone in iTunes, it overwrites the last backup. Files are kept as they are changed, so that would explain how you get different dates in your backup folder. The only backups that are saved and not overwritten are the ones done just prior to a restore. You do have the option to go back in time on a Windows computer, however depending on the last time you set a restore point in Windows, it could be back further than you are willing to go.

  • HT201250 How do I restore from Timeline external backup to a different drive?

    Good day!  Here's my current architecture
    1 MacBook Pro OSX 10.8.2
    1 Lacie Rugged External Drive (1T)
    1 G Drive 2T RAID
    1 MyPassport External Drive (2T)
    I have been backing up weekly both the MacBook Pro AND the Lacie to the RAID Device. 
    Lacie Rugged: My Lacie has my iTunes.  Recently there have been issues with communicating with the Lacie.  Genius bar says there is an issue with the drive itself.  I purchased a new Firewire to troubleshoot.  Still shows that the drive accidentally disconnects (e.g. not available) after about a couple of minutes. 
    So I bought a new drive.
    Restore: When I plug in my new MyPassport and access my Timeline backups, I cannot see the Lacie backups to restore.  It seems that Timeline requires the original drive (Lacie) to be plugged in (which is the one I am having issues with).
    Question: How do I restore from a backup(Lacie) to my new external drive(MyPassport)?

    I imagine you mean Time Machine, not TimeLine. If you do mean Timeline, I have no idea what that is.

  • Is iTunes 11.1.5 compatible with Mac OSX 10.6.8? If not how can I restore the previous iTunes version?

    Problem: Recently when I open iTunes it doesn't work; the little pinwheel just keeps spinning.
    I have tried leaving it on, as suggested by another user, for over 12 hours. I didn't work.
    I think the new iTunes version, 11.1.5, is not compatible with the operating system; Mac OSX 10.6.8. If this is so, how can I restore the previous iTunes version?

    You need to be updated to iTunes 11.2.2.
    You might want to consider running the combo updater over your install to refresh your files.
    Combo updater: Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update v.1.1 - 1.09 GB
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    After running the combo updater, select Software Updater and update iTunes.
    If iTunes fails to open after updating, hold down the Option key when launching iTunes. It will ask you to locate your iTunes Library.
    Note: I've seen users with their iTunes Library on an external drive spin like this when the drive was failed to be seen in Disk Utility. Run Repair Drive on the external drive to fix this issue.

  • I have lost all my address book and iCal content on my MacBook Pro. How do I restore from my iPhone?

    I have lost all my address book and iCal content on my MacBook Pro. How do I restore from my iPhone? I tried synchronising my iPhone to the MacPro but then lost all the content on the iPhone. I managed to get it back using the restore. This means the only content I have for Address Book and iCal sits on my iPhone!

    Put one unique entry in both iCal & Address Book on your Mac. These entries can be fake, that doesn't matter, just make sure Address Book & iCal are not empty. Then when you select to sync contacts & calendars on the Info pane in iTunes, you'll get a merge or replace prompt. Select merge.

  • Can be done restore from an earlier backup if the backup was deleted?

    can be done restore from an earlier backup if the backup was deleted? restoring from backup is lost application

    No, you cannot restore from a deleted backup, because the backup is deleted. It therefore no longer exists.
    Just re-download the lost app from the AppStore.

  • I backed up my bookmarks to an external drive, rebuilt my system, and now when I try to restore from that file, I get "unsupported file type" How can I restore from this file?

    I backed up my bookmarks to an external drive, rebuilt my system, and now when I try to restore from that file, I get "unsupported file type" How can I restore from this file?

    Make sure that the backup file with the bookmarks has the correct file extension: .html for a HTML backup and .json for a JSON backup.<br />
    You can check that via the right-click context menu of that file and open the Properties.<br />
    If you are not sure about the file type then you can open the file in Firefox via "File > Open File"<br />
    A JSON backup will show as one long text line without line breaks and a HTML backup as a web page with clickable links.<br />
    A JSON backup starts with: {"title":"","id":1,"dateAdded":<br />
    An HTML backup starts with: <nowiki><!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1></nowiki>
    You may need to add quotes ("") around the name to rename the file to the correct file extension.

  • I was having ios 4.3 and decided to upgrade to ios 5 and in doing so I lost all my apps despite I restored from my earlier back up. The itunes I've backed up is different from the itunes I have used to upgrade-..

    I was having ios 4.3 and decided to upgrade to ios 5 and in doing so I lost all my apps despite I restored from my earlier back up. The itunes I’ve backed up is different from the itunes I have used to upgrade….. I was wondering if I can get back my apps that were purchased using different apple ID (not mine). Since I am in Ethiopia doesn’t even have the chance to buy it again. I have searched it in my computer/c/user/adminstrator….but couldn’t find it. Anyone p/l help

    When I updated my iPhone to IOS 5, I did it from my MB Air, when my iPhone's "home" is my work 27" iMac. I figured I could just download the new OS at home where internet is fast and then sync at office and be done. 
    WRONG!!!  So, like others here, all my apps were "gone."
    Following some of what I read above, I did the following and now all my apps that I purchased in the past are downloading to my 27". 
    In iTunes I went to Purchased, under "Store" in left column of iTunes.
    Then at the bottom of the Purchased screen was something like Download all apps, borrom right (sorry, cant see it now, its downloading all of them).  Once I hit that, I could see all my apps and it looks like they are all coming back.
    Now all I have to do is put them all like I had them before, folders, etc.  That will be a pain BUT at least I have all of them.
