I own an iPhone 4S and have installed ios8. Subsequently none of my apps will work. How do I uninstall and go back to the previous operating system?

Good luck at the Genius bar.
I have figured out that if I do a hard restart of the phone the apps will work for a time, but then they begin to all freeze up again after a short time.
This may be a problem of not enough free storage. Have you checked the storage used by your apps?
Go to Settings > General > Usage

Can I get rid of IOS 8.3 and go back to the previous operating system because 8.3 is running my battery down something fierce.

IOS 8.3 uses too much battery power. Can I remove it and go back to the previous operating system?

Downgrading is not supported.
As a test, restore as a new phone, not from a backup, and see if the battery life is better. You can restore from a backup after your test.

Can I get rid of Lion and go back to the previous operating system? I bought Apple because it was simple. I went from loving my Mac to absolutely hating it.

Yosemite looks like a downgrade, flat, childish and no more ability to make the view of anything personal. How do I go back to the previous operating system?

Erase your hard drive using Disk Utility from the Recovery HD, then restore your old system from your backups.

I too upgraded to iOS7 and have regreted doing so. It would be nice if you could be given the option to revert back to the previous operating system.

Shame I just took Apple Macs recommendations to upgrade to iOS7 pages don't open the same, graphics are inferior, applications do not auto rotate and therefore do not fit in the screen. That will teach me to trust the so called experts!

Jeeze you should of been there 15 years ago! Moving between apps was a real pain. Now I don't find it that bad at all. I imagine that part of the reason they don't combine all of the apps is because not everyone needs all of the features etc for every project, and combining them all would require a huge chunk of memory to run. I'd imagine it'd be pretty cumbersome as well.
But I do wish that they'd make things work the same way (drawing tools same in flash and illustrator for example)

Imovie: I have just downloaded 'mavericks' and have installed all updates. I get an error message:Your computer's video card does not meet the minimum system requirements.

I am not 100% sure this is the issue, but I saw a different thread about the ATI Radeon HD 2600 not being OpenCL compatible for another program and that a newer compatible graphics card would be required to solve the problem. I am getting the same message with my 2007 iMac 24".

Is Lion going to be offered on a disk similar to the previous operating systems where you can get a family pack? of like 5 instals?

You don't even need the family pack anymore! Just use the same Apple ID to connect to the App Store on each computer and upgrade... pay for it once and you can use it multiple times. According to the Lion page on www.apple.com, this is intended, and...
According to the App Store OS X Lion 10.7 License Agreement Section 2 Paragraph B:
B. License from Mac App Store. If you obtained a license for the Apple Software from the Mac App Store, then subject to the terms and conditions of this License and as permitted by the Mac App Store Usage Rules set forth in the App Store Terms and Conditions (http://apple.com/legal/itunes/ww/) ("Usage Rules"), you are granted a limited, non-transferable, non-exclusive license:

This means that you can buy OS X Lion with your Apple ID, and any Mac you own (or have control over) that is legally defined by the license agreement can be connected by the same Apple ID and upgraded.

If restoring to the previous state from backup isn't an option (hopefully it is), it may be easier to try to resolve what is causing problems. It's possible that some incompatible software you have installed is messing with the smooth running of your Mac.
Can you describe more fully what problems you are experiencing? You could also run EtreCheck and post the contents of its report here - it may reveal the cause as there is some software 'out there' that is known to create problems: http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck

I have a Mac running OS X 10.4.11 with a 1.83 intel core duo what is the highest operating system upgrade that I can get?

You can check to see if yours meets the system requirements for Snow Leopard - that would be the highest; Lion will not run on your machine.
Please note that the minimum 1 GB RAM is a minimum - 2 GB would be better.

You can buy it at the Apple Store, other online resellers, or ebay (but be careful there to only bid on a new retail shrinkwrapped package to you don't get suckered into a used install disk which won't work on other machines).

What's the go with this latest update. Half my apps don't work and the iPad runs slower? How do I go back to the old operating system?

Make sure your apps are updated. You might try Settings > iTunes & App Store > Automatic Downloads - Updates = "On".
You cannot go back to an old operating system.

I have just updated the software on my pad to ios7. Big mistake. It is ugly and unpleasant to use. Also, on safari there are icons which I have no wish to use, but can't get rid of. Can I revert to the previous operating system?

I have just updated the operating system on my ipad2 to iso7. Big mistake. It is ugly and unpleasant to use, and the Safari element comes loaded with icons I will not be using, but can't seem to get rid of. Does anybody know how to change the operating system back to the previous one?
Thanks.

Firstly, the icons when you load safari are your bookmarks in the favourite section. To remove them you can simply either delete them or move them to another bookmark folder. To access your bookmarks tap the blue book in the top right corner and then go through to bookmarks and select and edit from there, goodluck :)

I AM STRUGGLINT TO ACCESS MY IPHOTO'S AND HAVE TO GO THROUGH APPLICATIONS TO ACCESS MY PHOTOS. HOW CAN I CORRECT THIS PLEASE. DOES THE MAC HAVE A DEFRAG? TX

I am having problems viewing my iPhoto from the dock and have to go through my applications to view. What do I have to do to correct this please? Also does the Mac have a defrag function? I have also been advised by the sales person that the Mac does not need an antivirus programme, is this true?

I'm sorry but your post make no sense
first off All Caps is not necessary and makes things hard to read and is consider shouting - it is rude
Second you do not have "an iPhoto" - iPhoto is an application that manages photos - the photos are stored (by default) in the iPhoto library in a SQL lite database and you use the iPhoto program to manage them
I am having problems viewing my iPhoto from the dock and have to go through my applications to view.
can you please explain this in some detail. When you launch iPhoto by clicking on the iPhoto icon in the Dock what happens?
As to your other OS questions this is certainly not hte best place to address them - we are iPhoto users just like yourself here --- basically as I understand it (and I have had had Macs for 30+ years) there is no "defrag and you do not need one - and antivirus is your choice - most people feel it is a waste of money on a Mac but some like to have it

How do I revert back to the old operating system? The new upgrade that came out totally disabled my WiFi and the default backgrounds changed to white instead of bla k.

An upgrade was sent to my Samsung Galaxy S5 phone on 3/27/15 and it ruined my phone. I no longer have the ability to Wi-Fi. When I swipe the phone on there is a clicking sound and the scree goes directly to my keypad. I want the phone to go to my home screen like it did before. My apps that had a black background now have a white background which is impossible to see outdoors. I want the black background back for settings, clock, and calculator. Samsung tech support says this stuff is default with the new upgrade. How do I revert back to the version I had before without having to put the phone back to factory settings and lose all my pictures, memos and other files I have accumulated over the last year that I have had the phone. I am desparate. Please help me. Send an e-mail to (removed)

You cannot revert back without voiding warranty and we cannot discuss the methods to do so.

HT204074 I can't download any iTunes to an iPhone 4 I have just got, though I can download apps etc? When downloading any iTunes it's downloads all the way across, then comes up with "download error, try again". I have over 12GB left? Any ideas?

I have tried everything with resetting it etc etc. I don't have a problem with my ipad 3 or laptop, just getting the tracks onto the iPhone? Any help would be appreciated.

Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443.
Update to the latest version of iTunes.
Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.
Test restoring while connected to a known-good network.
