HT5503 can I downgrade from ios 7 on my ipad 2 which was purchased in Dec 2012 to a previous ios 6 version? I didn't previously back it up unfortunately.

I purchased an ipad back in December 2012 and didn't open it till recently. When I opened it I didn't back it up and then downloaded the new ios 7 software which I'm not to fond of the look and feel. I'm not sure what ios 6 version originally came on my ipad. Is there a way to take off ios 7 and reinstall some version of ios 6 back on my iPad???

No. You cannot downgrade the iOS. It is not supported by Apple.

    There is no reason to be running beta software, I doubt it will even still run as iOS 6 has been officially released.  Or were you simply trying to be funny? 
    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • I am using Iphone 5 ,How can i downgrade from IOS 7.0 to IOS 6 ?

    I am using Iphone 5 ,How can i downgrade from iOS 7.0 to iOS 6 ?

    Go to the Apple store and buy a new phone, the iPhone 5 (not the 5S) and you will probably get a phone with the IOS 6 interface.
    But be aware that many apps will no longer be offering updates for the older IOS. You either have to move forward and stay in the past.
    IOS 7 is just a change in the look, the functionality is still there. OSes have to move on, change. Otherwise the vendor gets accused of staying in the past. I find no problem in the update except for the changes in the Calendar. I spent $5.00 and got another calendar that does more and works better. I also got a better Notes program for a few bucks. For less than the cost of a dinner meal I was able to improve my phone experience. Rather than complain, I adapted. Problem solved.

  • How can you downgrade from ios 7.1.2 to 6.1.3

    hello everyone can you please help me i need to downgrade from ios 7.1.2 to ios6.1.3 because my ipad dosent work realy well with it can you plese help me  

    Downgrading isn't possible. iTunes won't install iOS versions older than the latest compatible release, and if one's somehow installed anyway, Apple's servers won't activate the device afterwards.

  • Can you downgrade from iOS 8.2 to 8.1.3?

    Is it possible to downgrade from iOS 8.2 to 8.1.3 on iPhone 6? If so, how? After updating both my iPhone and iPad with iOS 8.2, I experienced several issues. The Bluetooth on my phobe is no longer workIng properly and will not sync with my car or any other Bluetooth device. The battery life for both devices has been reduced significantly. Also the update has caused glitches in several of my apps as welL. I don't plan on getting an Apple watch, so I don't need 8.2.

    No, downgrading iOS levels is not supported.

  • Can I downgrade from iOS 8.1.2 to iOS 7.1.2

    Are there any instructions on how to downgrade my iPhone 4S from iOS 8.1.2 to iOS 7.1.2. My iPhone feels a lot slower ever since I have upgraded to iOS 8. Upgrading it each time has improved a tiny bit but I would much prefer iOS 7.1.2. I have tried to search YouTube videos on how to do it but everytime I try, it comes up with, "This device isn't eligible for the requested build." Can somebody please help me?

    Sorry, downgrading is not supported by Apple.
    Set it up as new device instead:

    Since downgrading is not supported, why don't you give us a list of symptoms and a time frame for when this all started.  Then MAYBE, Just MAYBE we can help you resolve your issues(s).

  • Can I downgrade from iOS 5 on iPad 2 3G ?

    Is it possible for me to downgrade to 4.3.3 ? If yes, how ?

    i am seeing that everyone who has ipad 2 wants to go back to 4.3.3
    I don't see that at all.  Some have reported difficulties.  The one you describe means simply that the app/game maker has to update it.  As soon as I updated to iOS 5 about 20 - 30 of my apps all updated immediately, some to a version that was ONLY compatible with iOS 5.
    It's the maker of that game or app that you need to contact, not Apple and no, it's not possible to reverse upgrades, sorry.   Try searching the forums for downgrading and you will see it isn't possible.

  • Can I downgrade from iOS 8

    Unfortunately, not.
    Have you tried a reset?

  • Can I use an iphone 4s (unlocked) in the US which was purchased in India?

    I have heard that in order to buy a sim card ,  you also need to buy a phone in the US . Can I just buy a pre paid sim which I can use with my existing iphone?

    That depends upon the model of your iPhone, whether you're using it in a roaming mode, and the communications protocol of both the iPhone and the country in which you want to use it.
    If you provided more information, my answer would be different.  For example, if you posted "I have an unlocked iPhone 5 model A1428, would it work in the EU?"  My answer would read, "Your iPhone would work in any country that usesGSM, and if you have the appropriate regional SIM card."

  • How to downgrade from ios 8.02 to 7.04 on iphone 4s

    how to downgrade from ios 8.02 to 7.04 on iphone 4s?

    You can't downgrade from iOS 8.0.2 to iOS 7.0.4 any more, because Apple has closed the access to verify iOS 7.0.4.

  • I use iphone 3GS, can I downgrade from iOS4.3?

    I use iphone 3GS, can I downgrade from iOS 4.3?

    Since the 3GS, any firmware you restore is checked with Apple's servers for approval. They generally stop approving installation of older firmware soon after releasing an update in order to help curb jailbreaking activities.
    In the past, although Apple does not officially support downgrading, it was often still possible with some workarounds, but following this change, it is usually impossible.

  • Downgrade from ios 5.1 to 5.0.1

    How can I downgrade from iOS 5.1 to iOS 5.0.1?
    Thanks!

    Yes, it is possible to do so but i cannot say bc of what NLeeTechGeek says is true. and why do you wanna downgrade? theyve fix the battery part in 5.1, in the IOS 5 and IOS 5.0.1 drains 30% power use over night meaning i didnt touch my ipod for more than 6-9hrs bc pple gotta sleep ya no and i lost 30% of my battery power not even being used at all and not even been Jailbroken. I used to have my ipod plugged in non stop till i downgraded my iPod back to 4.3.5 again till they had a better version out and i upgraded. So we ask why you wanna downgrade from this better version to 5.0.1
