How do i downgrade my ipad mini from ios 8.1.3 to ios 7.1.2

how do i downgrade my ipad mini from ios 8.1.3 to ios 7.1.2 , i upgraded my ipad to ios 8.1.3 today but i find its performance is low

What specifically is your performance issue? I haven't really seen any difference between iOS 7 and iOS 8.
Here are some general performance suggestions from the Internet:

How can I downgrade my iPad 2 from iOS 8 to ios 7?

how to downgrade ios 8 to iOS 7 for my iPad 2?

Well then I hope they come out with an 8.1 version that is exactly like IOS 7 in every way, because IOS 8 is horrible. It is so slow, and unreliable at connecting and disconnecting FaceTime calls. Not to mention taking up about 1/3 of the memory on our devices just for the OS.

I want to downgrade my IPad 2 from IOS 6.0 to 5.1.1

It's really a stuff that Apple gave to their fan. What is the terrible IOS with a lots of errors, I have no 3G enable/off at my ipad 2 after upgarding to IOS 6. There are some terrible functions as..........Map.
Apple support need to help your END USERs to get back to what they want to use. I got 3194 when i tried to restore the Stiched IOS 5.1.
I can believe Apple treat their customer as........IOS 6 ( sound likes ****)
I want to get back to 5.1.1
Gents, Please do something for your apple 's fan.
I am feeling bad when i saw my ipad with IOS 6 on it..................wanna burn it now.

Downgrading of any version of iOS isn't supported by Apple. If you search the web, you'll find instructions that may work, but you're on your own should any problems arise. For many people it goes without problems, but for some it's reportedly bricked their devices.
iOS 6 works fine on my iPads, though Maps is definitely a work in progress. There are a number of alternative maps apps, or you can just save Google's mobile maps web page to your home screen. For performance or stability problems with iOS, try doing a Restore of your iPad. That fixes for many people a number of problems that upgrading over an existing version of iOS sometimes seems to trigger.
You're not talking with Apple when you post here, by the way.
Regards.

How to downgrade my iPhone 4 from iOS 7.0.4 to iOS 7.0.3?

Hi. I have upgrade my iPhone 4 to iOS 7.0.4. After two days, the iPhone has had problems with the sound, so I want to downgrade it to the previous iOS 7.0.3. Could someone help me with that?

Hi, Peter
I found an old post of yours regarding an ipod connectivity issue to your VW . Ufortunately I lost that discussion thread and I can no longer refer to it, hence this totally unrelated message.
Did you eventually manage to get your ipod to charge and play in your 2005 VW GOLF? I have a 2009 golf and the ipod connection inside the armrest appears to be a 30 pin ipod dock..I am planning to purchase an ipod touch nano (7th gen.) and I am a bit lost as to what cables I'll need to make sure it will both charge and play.
Can you advise, please? I believe that in theory I'll need a dock extender cable (cablejive) and then a 30 pin to lightening cable, then a 12 v to 5 v charger adaptor but I am not too sure about it...
Thank you.

What happend if i try to downgrade my "iPad 2" from "iOS 6" to "iOS 5.1.1" with the ipsw of "iOS 5.1.1" ? Can i harm my iPad 2?

Downgrading isn't supported on iDevices. So I'd think anything you do you do at your own risk.

There's no official way to do that. Downgrading was never supported since the first iPhone.

Resolve communication issues
Related errors: 17, 1004, 1013, 1638, 3014, 3194, 3000, 3002, 3004, 3013, 3014, 3015, 3194, or 3200. These alerts refer to gs.apple.com, say "There was a problem downloading the software," or say the "device isn't eligible for the requested build."
Check the hosts file or TCP/IP filtering, which might cause communication issues between iTunes, ports, and servers.

Downgrading to an earlier iOS version is not supported by Apple. You will get no help with this direct from Apple or here.

How to update Ipad 2 from IOS 4.3.5 to IOS 5. Itunes won't let me do it because it keeps showing error messages asking me to check if my network is active.

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 7.1.2. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
You can no longer update to iOS 6.x, or down grade the iOS.

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and antivirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 7.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
How to Upgrade to iOS 7
The iOS 7.0 update requires around 2.5 GB of storage space, so if your iPad is almost full, you may need to clear up some space. You can check your available space in Settings -> General -> Usage.
There are two ways to upgrade to iOS 7: You can use your Wi-Fi connection, or you can connect your iPad to your PC and update through iTunes. We'll go over each method.
To upgrade using Wi-Fi:
Note: If your iPad's battery is under 50%, you will want to plug it into your charger while performing the update.
Go into the iPad's Settings.
Locate and tap "General" from the menu on the left.
The second option from the top is "Software Update". Tap this to move into the update settings.
Tap "Download and Install". This will start the upgrade, which will take several minutes and will reboot your iPad during the process. If the Download and Install button is grayed out, trying clearing up some space. The space required by the update is mostly temporary, so you should gain most of it back after iOS 7 is installed.
Once the update is installed, you may have to run through the initial steps of setting up your iPad again. This is to account for new features and settings.
To upgrade using iTunes:
First, connect your iPad to your PC or Mac using the cable provided when you purchased your device. This will allow iTunes to communicate with your iPad.
You will also need the latest version of iTunes. Don't worry, you will be prompted to download the latest version when you launch iTunes. Once it installs, you may be asked to setup iCloud by logging into your iTunes account. If you have a Mac, you may be prompted on whether or not you want to enable the Find my Mac feature.
Now you are ready to begin the process:
If you upgraded iTunes earlier, go ahead and launch it. (For many, it will launch automatically when you plug in your iPad.)
Once iTunes is launched, it should automatically detect that a new version of the operating system exists and prompt you to upgrade to it. Choose Cancel. Before updating, you will want to manually sync your iPad to make sure everything is up to date.
After canceling the dialog box, iTunes should automatically sync with your iPad.
If iTunes doesn't automatically sync, you can manually do it by selecting your iPad within iTunes, clicking on the File menu and choosing Sync iPad from the list.
After your iPad has been synced to iTunes, select your iPad within iTunes. You can find it on the left side menu under Devices.
From the iPad screen, click on the Update button.
After verifying that you want to update your iPad, the process will begin. It takes a few minutes to update the operating system during which time your iPad may reboot a few times.
After updating, you may be asked a few questions when your device finally boots back up. This is to account for new settings and features.
 Cheers, Tom
