How soon will IOS 7 be upgraded?

I've tried everything in order to downgrade IOS 7 back to IOS 6.1.4 for my Iphone 5 but apparently this is just not an option for a public user. (It seems that beta testers were able to restore IOS 6 until IOS 7 was released to the public but not now???.)
I'm sure there are many useful new features of the IOS 7 but visually everything is extremely disturbing. The bright colors on bright white backgrounds are very stark and garish and the icons are like ugly little square balloons with ugly little images on them.
Even text messages are awful. My husband sends me just a smilely face  : ) throughout the day and I've always loved how the shape of the text bubble looked like a little face. Don't gag on that, I know it sounds sugary and dumb but it's always been very important to me.
Furthermore, the buttons and fonts for the apps I use the most such as my contacts list, the calendar, my text messages and even my music have had everything changed and moved around and it's incredibly difficult for me to read the screen now. All the text seems to blend together. For example: the alphabet headers in the contacts list; they are the same size and color as the names on my list so nothing seems to be seperated and I have to concentrate in order to pick a name where before I could just glance at the phone and choose a name with a swipe of my thumb. The calendar is especially awful with the whole thing being a grey and white grid with nothing standing out such as scheduled appointments. Bear with me on this muddled explanation - I'm neither a language whiz nor a computer techie, just an average cell phone user.
I know I'm capable of getting used to most of these changes but I'm not going to get past how ugly and childish this IOS is visually and how awkard all the buttons/swipes are. If I can't change these two points I may end up diching the IPhone and going to a competitor's brand. That's how important these issues are to me. The "easy on the eyes and easy on the brain" appeal is the reason I went with an IPhone in the first place all those years ago. I like things simple (the grass is green and the sky is blue) but up-to-date and useful and until now Apple was always the way to go. Now, I'm not so sure.
So, now that I 've stood on my soapbox and shouted out my gripe (hopefully Apple will listen as I'm not the only one complaining) MY QUESTION is:
Will Apple provide an update to IOS 7 that either fixes the visuals and awkardness or at least gives us the option to choose the old IOS 6 styling? And if so, how soon can we expect this update? (It better be pretty darn quick!)

Sorry, Apple has made no announcement regarding iOS 7, thus no one here will know.

    This forum is a user-to-user forum - it always has been. It is designed so that we users can help each other.
    You have to remember that sometimes an entire thread can be wrong. Perhaps the people posting about Podcast problems are wrong. Certainly, there is one thread that has been going on for some time, but the people with the problem seem reluctant to try any suggestions put forward to them, especially if the suggestion includes the thought that Apple may not be the cause of the problem. I use Podcasts all the time and rarely have any problems.
    Apple (by the way) is not the cause of every single known problem in the universe!
    That said, if you have a problem with Podcasts, why not tell us here and we'll see if anyone can help you?

    so I want to know 1. how long the application(may be dashboard) is Idle

    You need to be a bit more resourceful, you can't expect people to do everything for you. I don't know which websites your company blocks so I am not going to list all the language translators on the web to see which ones are and which ones are not. Ask a friend to visit the page and send a screen shot, visit the page from internet cafe or from your home internet connection. There are tons of ways to do it...

  • How soon will a 250-300 GB ipod be released?

    "iPod classic puts your entire music and video collection in your pocket."
    ...not if I have 230 gigs of music and 20 gigs of videos.
    im just wondering if anyone knows (or wants to predict) how soon a 250-300 gig ipod is coming out?? or should i just go ahead and spend 600 on this thingy: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000WMV7WG/ref=cmcr_pr_producttop
    appreciate it!

    Here's a 6TB iPod. It has 8-750GB drives in the pack along with the battery which can be recharged simply by walking. Small generators are powered by tiny pistons in the bottom of your shoes.
    Notice the cooling fan on the side of the pack.
    In the winter, the fan is closed off and liquid cooling lines are fed thru the pack into special bladders in the sleeves of a coat to keep the user warm.
    Really.

  • I have a "vintage" macbook with OS X 1-.6.8 quicken 2002. How badly will it hurt to upgrade to OS x M Lion? I have heard I may loose all apps older than 2008? Help me get to the Cloud! That's what I want so that I can then transfer all info to a new MAcbo

    I have a "vintage" macbook OS X 10.6.8. I want to get all of my information to the Cloud. I must upgrade to Mountain Lion. I have heard I may loose all of my applications pre 2008. Can anyone help me with this? Most important is my contact list in Mail.

    You don't need the Cloud to transfer your data. The first time you boot your new Mac it will boot into Setup Assistant, then prompt you to transfer the data, apps and settings from your old Mac. Do it then, after that it will create a new user and will be problematic.

  • How much will it cost to upgrade an iphone 3gs to an iphone 4 unlocked

    So i got an iphone 3gs earlier unlocked... and i want to know what are the requirenments to upgrading to an iphone 4 or and iphone 4s... i got my 3gs off of a friend and i was wondering if i could trade it for an iphone 4 or 4s... my iphone has a cracked screen.. speaker kinda bad... please i need help... i really want an iphone 4s... Replay soon

    The unlocked iPhones are sold out of contract meaning you pay full retail price.  iPhone 4S starts at 649-849 depending on the 16GB, 32GB or 64GB.  To get them at the 199-399 price, you'll need to sign a 2 year agreement with AT&T, Verizon, or Sprint.
    There are online sites who will give you cash for your broken iPhone, but dont expect much.

  • If I order a macbook tomorrow night, how soon will I get it? (free shipping

    How fast does apple ship out products? When would it arrive?

    I received mine today. From placing the order last Sunday, it shipped from China on Wednesday, and arrived at my doorstep this morning, Friday. Unbelievable. I didn't not even upgrade my shipping. I am so impressed with FedEx but there is no sense to pay them extra for priorty shipping since regular mode is so fast as it is.

  • How soon will DW CS5 Live View Webkit support CSS3?

    See above.  I just tried CSS3's text-shadow (although I don't believe it's totally CSS3) and while the shadow works well in Chrome, in Opera and in Safari, DW's Live View does not render the shadow, but rather an offset black copy of the text.  Webkit supports this but apparently not the webkit in DW.  Will this be updated by extension or update and if so, when?
    Thanks,
    Nancy

  • How I resolved iOS 4.1 upgrade problem fix

    I kept getting message "The Phone "Mike's iPhone" could not be updated because the firmware file is not compatible". I did the usual turning off XP firewall etc with no luck. I finally searched for .ipsw files on the computer and found this:
    iPhone3,14.1_8B117Restore.ipsw.download
    The firmware did download but the suffix .download seems to cause a problem.
    I edited the file name and backspaced through the dowload and the last period.
    I then clicked on the Update in iTunes using shift-Update. I navigated to this file and the update proceeded normally.

    The iPhone 3G cn only go as high has iOS 4.2.1.
    Going to 4.2.1.requires iTunes version 10 or higher. If a Mac it requires OSX 10.5.8 or later.
    BTW, this is the iPod touch forum

  • Will there be an upgrade soon to organise folders??

    same old question - but why can't iPhoto organise folders in Finder in the same way as you set them up in iPhoto?
    Will there be an upgrade soon to allow folder syncronisation in the same way as iTunes does it?
    Also - how do you use files in other packages without having to search through folders organised by date?
    Any help - much appreciated
    Thanks
    Ben

    Hi Benm
    1. I don't know know but there must be a good reason.
    2. I don't know, but the more feedback Apple gets on that topic, you never know.
    3. Some programs can already read that data.xml file and can navigate your iPhoto albums in order to open/import an image. It's up to the other programs to begin integrating with iPhoto. It can be done.
    Then how do you use files in other programs?
    I use drag and drop if the other programs supports it.
    I share/export the images I want to use in other programs

  • I have a "company provided Ipad" now using IOS 6.1.3.  the company Will allow me to upgrade to IOS 7 but not to IOS 8.  Is that possible?

    I have a "company provided Ipad" now using IOS 6.1.3.  the company Will allow me to upgrade to IOS 7 but not to IOS 8.  Is that possible?

    No, since the iPad 2 is iOS 8 compatible it can only be updated to iOS 8.  Apple does not support upgrading to interim iOS versions, and removes those files from the servers when a new version is released.  The only path for that iPad 2 is iOS 8.0.2.

  • Moving from 32-bit to a 64-bit OS how will this impact ebs upgrade process

    we are planning to upgrade from ebs 11.5.10.2 to r12.1 .3
    My concern is since we will be moving from 32-bit to a 64-bit OS how will this impact our upgrade process?

    Hi;
    we are planning to upgrade from ebs 11.5.10.2 to r12.1 .3
    My concern is since we will be moving from 32-bit to a 64-bit OS how will this impact our upgrade process?I assume your EBS single machine. EBS r11 is not certified wiht 64 bit OS.So you need to upgrade first than migrate it 64 bit
    See:
