How to undo an update?

After running an osx update today my network card stopped working, it keeps saying the cable is unplugged. It's not the cable cause it works on my macbook. So i want to undo/uninstall the update, but how?

Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions ...
Instead of trying to undo an update, try working with the situation. First, on the MacBook turn off Airport, you can do this by going to the Menu Bar, click the Airport icon and click: Turn Airport Off
Now, shut down your MacBook. Disable any peripherals, like USB ports, Ethernet, everything. If you have a cable modem, turn it off or unplug it. Now, boot the MacBook, turn your cable modem back on, let it recycle, can takes a few minutes. Now turn on Airport from the Menu Bar and see if Airport is functioning as it should.
If not, try this: Launch Disk Utility, (Applications/Utilities) and Repair Disk Permissions. Select MacintoshHD 10.x.x in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab, then click: Repair Disk Permissions. Quit DU when it's finished and reboot. See if Airport is working.
I agree with Nerowolfe, I do not think there's anyway to UNdo this update other than doing an Archive and Install, but trouble shooting will probably take less time.

It is possible to RE-do one but not UN-do unless you consider both to be the same. But you can not downgrade to an earlier version.

how to undo an update

I'm so disgusted right now. I have been studying forums for 3 days trying to get my iMac 27 functional again. Updated to OS x Mavericks 10.9.2 on March 11 and Aperture 3.5.1 on March 10. I imported some pictures into Aperture a day or 2 after that. Now everytime I try to open Aperture I get an Applications has run out of memory message. I have repaired permissions for the whole system, tried to repair permissions, library and rebuild database in Aperture. Gets almost to the end and gives me the out of memory error each time. Then I have to reboot the system constantly. 3 days!!! I need to know how to either reinstall or rollback the updates.

How to undo software update in Nokia x6 and recove...

A friend had a software update done on my Nokia x6 - 8GBand now it is as good as new. All the data, files, photos and videos in it are gone. I had not backed them up as the software update wasn't intentional. It is really heartbreaking to lose all the precious data and files saved from all the past years. I tried all data recovery tools advertised on the internet but I could get nothing. Please please please someone tell me there is a way to get back my phone in its original state before the software update. Or atleast a way to recover the files. Any tech wizard who can help with solutions? please help. I'm really desperate at this point as is evident...

The update was done by a service centre where my friend had given my phone for a minor repair. When we asked them if it is possible to recover the lost data, they said it is impossible. Is it possible to recover the data if the update was done in nokia suite? If so where will the data be stored? I don't know how the service centre people updated the software. should I go ask them again?

After getting an update from 10.6.8 many of my programs were no longer able to open. How can I undo the update or solve this problem another way?

Do you have a bootable clone from prior to the update? If so, roll back with that.
Are your apps that won't open PPC and do they need Rosetta? Do you need to activate Rosetta?
Have you considered reinstalling 10.6 from your install disc and then coming forward with the 10.6.8 Combo Updater, then doing software update and not including whatever it was you installed that caused this propblem?
By the way - what update was it that caused this problem?

How do I undo an update to pages 2.1 on an iPad 2? I can no longer open a document previously saved, even when I try to open it in the iCloud and on my Mac.

How do I undo an update to pages 2.1 on an iPad 2? I can no longer open a document previously saved, even when I try to open it in the iCloud and on my Mac.

With IOS Pages v2.0 and v2.1, Apple introduced a new document format that is incompatible with prior Pages versions on IOS or OS X Pages ’09. Opening older documents with these recent versions of Pages will permanently prevent the document from opening in earlier versions of Pages on IOS or OS X.
Nice of Apple to warn people.
There is no undo of an iTunes application update, short of forcing iTunes to restore IOS v6 back on that iPad 2. Even if you did that, you won't find the IOS Pages v1.7.2 in the iTunes store now.
IOS Pages v2+ will allow you to export content in Word .docx format. You do this by first tapping the box with an up-arrow in it (next to the left-most +). A menu will slide up — choose Send a Copy. Select a document icon. Pick Mail, and then Word. Your Pages v2.1 document will now be converted to Word .docx, and attached to an email body. Fill in the to address and send.

Last update Ipad how to undo

My Ipad become very slow after the last update I use to be a happy Ipad user ......and now i am about to trow it out of the window

You can't undo the update or go back now. Try resetting the iPad and them see how it behaves. You might what to close all of your apps before you reset as well. If you post back with more specific information, maybe we can help you resolve your problems.
To close an app, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it. Close all of the apps like this.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

How to undo OS software update from 10.8.3 back to 10.8.2?

Hi there,
I just updated my OS to 10.8.3. I have a Macbook Pro (mid 2012)
I originally wanted to install Windows 7 via Boot Camp.
In the recent 10.8.3 update, there is an update for Boot Camp (Boot Camp 5)
However, after I updated the OS update, I found out that Boot Camp 5 only supports 64-bit Windows 7. I have the 32-bit version.
So now I'm stuck.
Can someone please help me and tell me how to undo the software update?
Thank you,

There is no way to downgrade unless you have a backup of your old 10.8.2 system. If you do, you can restore to that state.
You may want to look here for other options:

I don't really know anything about Boot Camp, so I can't comment on the solution there.

How to undo update of checkbox after triggering when-new-record-instance

Hi,
I am using eBusiness Forms Personalization in 11.5.10 to alter the Receipts form in Purchasing. I want to prevent users checking the rcv_transaction checkbox if the destination is "Multiple" and, instead, click the "+" sign to explode the multiple record into it's many component records.
I can do this by invoking the when-new-record-instance trigger to make the "multiple" record fields unalterable and issue a warning message when the user selects such records. However, my problem is that - if the user clicks the checkbox as the first field in a "multiple" record, then this updates the checkbox to "Yes" BEFORE the trigger fires, which then locks the record for update.
What I need is a solution that either sets the checkbox to unalterable for "multiple" records BEFORE the user clicks into such records, OR a method of undoing the update of the checkbox after the record has been selected (I cannot do this by simply setting it to "No" by the trigger as this is still technically an update and locks the record).
Cheers
Graham

Hi Navnit,
Yes you are right, but it can work even we not plase quotation mark in it. But Yes I forget to place semi colon so now it is
IF :System.Cursor_Record = 1 THEN
   :Block.Col1 := '02:00';
ElsIF :System.Cursor_Record = 2 THEN
   :Block.Col1 := '07:00';
   ------and so on
END IF;Danish

How do undo the software update?

I updated my phone a week or so ago using the "check for new software" feature and ever since my phone has been sucking power and keeps dropping the data connection. Since it worked like a charm before I would like to just undo this update. Is there an easy method to accomplish this?

There is a new software update that was just released to resolve some of these issues you encountered. The new software will be pushed out over the next week. You can search for it the same way you did the last, but it may not be available until pushed to your phone. Click here for more information about that update.
Is this an update to the update that came out at 8pm last Thursday?????
no budone, i don't believe so. they only officially announced that it was now being pushed, yesterday (i believe). they posted the pdf on friday, and we all know people were receiving it friday....but i don't think they announced anything until yesterday. there's no way they fixed and pushed a new update in a matter of days....lol.

HT1444 Is there a way to undo an update and go back to prior version?

Is there a way to undo an update and go back to a previous version? I installed the latest version of 10.7.4 (?) on my iPhone (4s) but I hate it. I was warned by another user not to update. She said I would regret it. I should've listened.
1)The Icons are lighter in color with tiny print on them - resembling a bunch of light colored boxes without meaning.
2) I used to be able to double-click the home button, press-and-hold a running icon at the bottom and deselect all that were running to prolong my battery life, but I can't figure out how to do that now.
I am reluctant to update my iPad now. I think I will readjust my settings to make the updates "hidden".

Unfortunately there isn't a downgrade path. However, to improve legibility go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn 'Larger Type' on and make adjustments there. Also you can turn the 'Bold Text' option on.
To close down apps, double-tap the Home button as before and any open apps will appear as a reduced sized window of the app. Stroke that window 'up' and the app will close down.
