HT1947 Can I go back to an older version of iTunes that'll support both my iPhone 4S w/iOS6 and my MacBook running Leapord 10.5.8?
Can I go back to an older version of iTunes that'll support both my iPhone 4S w/iOS6 and my 2009 MacBook running Leapord 10.5.8? I simply want everything to work the way it had been forever until recently. However, I can't imagine Apple would intentionally make their own products obsolete by rendering them useless through a software "upgrade." My MacBook is only 3 yrs old so I feel like I am simply missing 1 piece to this puzzle in order for things to start working again. I have my MacBook, iPod and iPhone 4S all set up to install updates automatically so if I need to uninstall certain updates and revert back to ones that work will that even be an option? Thanks
The only version of iTunes which will support both is version 10.6.3.

Can i go back to an older version of itunes?
I recently upgraded to iTunes 6 and I HATE it. It freezes a lot and at first, the preferences option under the edit menu was not even there and now it will not let me click on any of the tabs at the top. It only shows the "general" options. I had no problems with my earlier version of iTunes and it's not my computer because I have no problems with any other programs.Is there any way I can downgrade and go back to the last version? Or what can I do to fix iTunes 6 now that I'm stuck with it? I'd appreciate any help because there doesn't seem to be any way to contact Apple to ask them. I am not impressed with their "support" website. Thanks. -Carly
hiya!

hmmm. this sort of thing is sometimes caused by a corrupt itunes preferences file. let's see if we can fix this by rebuilding that file. try using the instructions on rebuilding a preferences file in this user tip:

Can i switch back to a different version of itunes that's not 8.0?
so i just updated to the new version 8.0 today, and i really dont like it. and from what i hear, it can cause a lot of problems. is there any way i can go back to the former version without losing my entire library?
Did you uninstall the existing version and then restart before you installed the new version?
You can download old versions of iTunes here: Mac | Windows.

Ever since the update, when I load iTunes it encounters an error and force closes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled everything Apple twice and that hasn't fixed the issue. Is there a way to go back to an older version of iTunes?

How can I revert back to an earlier version of Itunes?
I installed the newest version and it took EVERYTHING off my hard drive. A lot of it is crap I don't want on there. Can I revert back to an earlier version of Itunes that only has whats on my Ipod? I tried system restore and had no luck. Thanks
A couple of posts of mine that may help you;

If your disk was wiped, presumable you will not need to worry about the library as a new blank library will be created.

Please change the view in the top sites, the 6.1 upgrade has reverted back to a plain two-dimensional view, which is a little dated. Can I revert back to an older version via my time capsule save? C'mon Apple upgrades supposed to leap into the future not the past. :-(

I downloaded Firefox 4.0 and it says to re-install the toolbar but I have not been successful in doing so. I went to the forums and tried all the suggested fixes but none worked. Can I go back to the older version? I had no trouble with that and I do not like this new version at all. I tried a system restore twice and it did not fix the problem.
I would imagine it's the MyWay Searchbar which is classified by most anti-malware scanners as adware, or even worse as spyware. I say that because I see "SmileyCentral" in your list of plugins and that's an add-on for that particular toolbar. You can disable that via Tools | Add-ons | Plugins.
There are a number of toolbars which won't work with Firefox 4 anymore due to the enhanced protection mechanisms in the browser.
Mozilla recommends that you only install add-ons from its own security site @ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/?browse=featured Generally speaking, those have all been tested and approved. The exceptions are those currently under review which are marked with a yellow banner to warn users that they haven't passed Mozilla's labs yet. -
Can I revert back to an older version of iphoto after having updated my iphoto?
can I revert back to an older version of iphoto after having updated my iphoto?
Not unless you saved a copy of the old iPhoto Library. Otherwise, you can't go back.

Just updated to 8 & now I can not open any web pages as well as firefox will not close out, it still running in the background after browser was closed. I uninstalled and reinstalled as well as disabled add-ons and plugins nothing has changed, can I downgrade back to on older version?
See "Hang at exit":
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_hangs
See "Firefox hangs when you quit it":
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+hangs
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

How do I go back to an older version of iTunes?
I just updated my iTunes to 11 and definitely don't like it. How can I go back to the last version of iTunes?
What do you mean you can't? You certainly can and people that didn't care for the new iTunes 11 have already went back to the 10.7 version. Just search on these boards on how to go about it.

Hello Michael.
Hopefully this support article is what you need:
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+will+not+start
In any case, it's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
If the problem is not disappears when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.
Also, if you want to use an older version of Firefox, please use Firefox 3.5.11. Only versions 3.5.11 and 3.6.8 are supported, and both contain all the latest security fixes. Using any other version is unsafe and not recommended. -
Cannot use email program in ANGEL a CMS program. Can I switch back to the older version o Firefox?
I teach with a CMS program called ANGEL which is produced by BlackBoard. When I try to email students using ANGEL email I get an error message about script
Warning Unresponsive script:
A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
Script: https://angel.msu.edu/jscript/yahoo/utilities/utilities.js:9. Then if I click continue, it just does nothing, just goes into holding pattern. If I click stop script, it says the message was sent, but it doesn't actually send. I use a mac.
I desparately need to use this program. Can I please go back to the older version of Firefox. I believe the problem is with ANGEL, but I have no choice in that as the university sponsors it. Please Help!You can install the portable Firefox 3.6.x version to access websites that do not work with Firefox 5+.

Can you revert back to an older version of I tunes?
I have OS X 10.4 and tried to download the latest version of Itunes. Under system requirements, I thought it said you must have OSX 3.9 or later . . .so I downloaded it. Now when I try to open I tunes on my computer it says "you must have OS X 4.2 or later, for info an upgrading you operating system . . . " So my questions are, why did it let me down load I tunes 7.2 if my system did not meet the requirements and how do I get back to an older version? I have tried to download I tunes 6 but everytime I click to install it just says there is nothing to install. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Hi Lingar,
I think Chris was looking for your specific update number of your OS X installation.
In other words, mine (and Chris's) is 10.4.10. The ".10" after the "4" indicates which update to Mac OS X we have installed.
Choose "About This Mac" from the Apple logo in the menu bar and see what it says next to Version.
iTunes 7.3.2 current requirements:
Macintosh Requirements
* Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later or Mac OS X 10.4.7 or later required for iTunes
* Mac OS X 10.4.10 or later required for iPhone
* 500MHz G3 processor or better
* QuickTime 6.5.2 or later
* 256MB RAM
* Combo/Super Drive to burn CDs
* Broadband Internet connection (DSL/Cable/LAN) for buying and streaming
music
Additional Video Requirements
* Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later
* 1 GHz G4 processor or better
* QuickTime 7.1.6 or later
* 16MB video RAM
As long as your OS is 10.4.7 or above, you meet the necessary OS requirements for iTunes 7.3.2.
But as Chris suggested to another poster, it's probably a good idea to update your OS to the most current version. Download the 10.4.10 Combo updater from http://www.apple.com/support/downloadshttp://www.apple.com/support/downloads and install.
It's also a good idea to repair permissions following the OS update.
