  • HT4623 how can restore my IOS from 6.1 to previous version....I am loosing 15% battery each hour

    Upgraded my iphone 4 to IOS 6.1 3 days ago, I am loosing 15% battery each hour. Will going back to previous version help, and how can restore my IOS from 6.1 to previous version without loosing contents on my iphone? I have taken all normal precautions such as closing apps, turning off blutooth, manually fetching email, not using browser.....nothing seems to work.

    Those are not running apps.
    This is pulling up the recently used apps bar.  Most, if not all, of those apps are not running at all.  This is just a list of the apps that you have used recently.
    The very few apps that run in the backgound are managed by ios.

  • How to restore ipad2 ios 7 from backup

    I have an ipad2 which I backed up on my computer.  I copied all files from Itunes folder and ipad2 folder.  Also did a backup using itunes.  I have the iPad2,2 7.2 Restore.ipsw somewhere in my computer.   Is there a way to restore my ios 7 (getting rid of the miserably non-functional ios8) from my backup?  If so, how can I find it in my computer?  what is the step by step restore procedure?  Do I need to turn off wifi in order to get the ipsw to take?  Or do I need to restore to factory settings, and then "update" to 7.2?  How would I do that?   Please help!  I've spent the last ten days trying to figure this out and am about to turn my once beloved ipad 2 into a man-made reef (deep, deep in the ocean!). 

    Sorry, Apple does not support the downgrading of the iOS.
    Even if you managed to find it on your computer, when your try to validate the install with iTunes it won't work because Apple only signs the current iOS.
    I know iOS8 can take come getting used to, if you'd like to start another thread with our issues perhaps people here can suggest things that will help.

  • How To restore previous iOS?

    Good day sir/mam.
    I recently updated my iPhone3gs to iOS 6.1.3 after I setup then Could Not Activate my iPhone i try 5 times. So i was thinking that Could i Restore my data that before i updated iOS? Please help me..

    I'm sorry, but Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. Because downgrading is unsupported by Apple we cannot discuss it on these forums, but you can use Google to find information on how to install an older version of iOS on any iDevice.

  • How to restore an iOS 7 backup, on an iPhone running iOS 6.1.4?

    I was using iOS7, since tha release of the first beta version. Before sent my iPhone 5 to Apple for tech support i did a backup in iCloud. They returned me another phone, so I have an iOS 6.1.4 that doesn't allow me to restore iOS7 and I can't recover my data stored in the last backup. Anyone can help me? Thanks in advance!!!

    You should be posting this in the Developer Forums, to which, as a developer, you have access. Discussion of beta software isn't permitted in the public forums due to the NDAs you sign as a developer.
    Best of luck.

  • Numbers no longer synching in iCloud, how to restore? (iOS 5)

    I have IOS 6 on my iPhone 4, and it is synching properly, but my iPad under iOS 5.1.1 synching simply does not work. I thought it had something to do with my Apple ID, (I have .me, .mac, and now .icloud) but I corrected the iPad to match the iPhone - .mac seems to work on the phone, but the iPad still doesn't synch.

    No matter how many times you ask this question, you will get the same answer.  There is no way of overcoming the activation lock without the password.  Either you need to know it or the previous owner must use it to remove the device from his/her ID.  You can continue to waste your time and those of the volunteer users here, but you will never get your iPod to work without the cooperation of the original owner (who may or may not be the person who sold it to you).

  • How to restore a deleted built-in app (Maps)?  App disappeared: IOS 4 & 3GS

    Does anyone know how to restore a deleted built-in app?
    In my case the Maps app disappeared. According to other posts in this forum you cannot delete a built-in app such as Maps but it has happened on my iPhone 3GS.
    I'm running IOS 4.
    Morrow

    If you are unable to locate the Maps app you can still access it from the Spotlight search window. Just type in Maps, look for the familiar interstate 280 icon, tap there and you will enter the Maps app. This will work for you until you can locate the icon, which hopefully you will.

  • After a backup, clicked on upgrade IOS via Itunes.  Upgrade failed and now IPAD is locked, showing a graphic of a cable connector, an arrow and an Itunes symbol.  Ipad is locked there.  How to restore IPAD?

    Upgrade my IPAD from 8.1.3 to 8.2 via Itunes (from Windows Computer)
    First I backed up the IPAD via Itunes on my Windows laptop.
    Then I click upgrade IOS to 8.2 on Itunes.
    Later got a upgrade failure pop up window.
    Now IPAD is locked with a blank screen showing a cable connector and an arrow pointing to Itunes symbol.
    The IPAD does not boot, and the Itunes does not recognize the IPAD.
    turning on/off the IPAD does not change the display.
    How to restore or reboot the IPAD?

    I rebooted the computer and tried once again using a different USP port.  This did the trick!.  I was able to run the IOS update and it stuck and timed out while the Itunes was indicating that it was verifying the IOS installation (on ipad I could see a grayed working bar).  After it timed out the IPAD completed the task, and now it is working again.
    Thanks!

  • How to restore a deleted iOS Keynote file on iCloud?

    Ok -- i screwed up.
    heres my setup:
    iPad 1 (iOS 5.01), iPhone 4 (iOS 5.01), MacBook Air Core i7 (10.7.2)  <---- synched to -----> iCloud
    I use Keynote daily and have presentations synched between all my devices.  I accidently deleted a keynote file on my iPhone... and within minutes it was deleted on iCloud and my iPad.
    I had a look on my MacBook Air to see if i could find anything in "~/Library/mobile documents/com~apple~Keynote/Documents" there was nothing to be found as expected. I even looked in "~/Library/mobile documents.deleted" -- but i couldn't even find this folder.
    SO. Next Step.  Restore from iPad backup.
    My iPad backups occur everynight into iCloud.  I tried to restore from the 3 backups stored in iCloud.
    After restoring from the iPad backup -- i strarted up Keynote and briefly for about half a second, i could see the 2 deleted documents (greyed out)... but then they disappeared.
    I even tried deleteing iCloud document synching immediately after the backup -- but then when i startup Keynote it says that that my documents have been moved to iCloud, which i can access after enabling iCloud.  Duh.  Hello.  I want to restore the documents from the Backup.
    I have spent 4-5 hours with some helful apple support guys -- but there seemed no solution to this problem.
    1.WHat are my options?
    2. Why can't i restore a Keynote file from my iPad backup (regardless if it was deleted in iCloud).
    This is  MAJOR bug with iCloud.  And i need to get to the bottom of this with Apple.

    Your suggestion about Time Machine is noted -- and i think good advice for the future although i think most users would be rather confused on the usefuleness of Time Machine when dealing with iCloud synching with iOS devices.
    Its far from obvious on how to access those iOS/iCloud synched documents on OS X Lion.
    But the question remains:  If a file is deleted in iCloud -- should you be able to restore it from an iPhone or iPad backup?
