Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.Have yo tried:
- Backing up and restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Go to the OverDrive support site

My I message is not working, since IOS 8.3 update.

My messages is not working properly, since IOS 8.3 update. Message are left hanging as undelivered. When I tap on "try again" nothing happens. Even messages to known contacts with I phones, appear in green and does not get delivered anyway. I have reset my i phone several times to no avail. I like my I phone 6+ as a camera. All other functions are less than impressive.

Hi iambackbaby,

The icon on my message app does not work since the update, the recipient is set up to use it, my grandchildren

The sent icon on my ipad doesn't work since the update to ISO 7.06 the recipients are set up to receive messages

You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists.

Myi iphone4 microphone not working and the home button not work after IOS6 updat

Myi iphone4 microphone not working and the home button not work after IOS6 updat

Did you try another restore and this time not to restore from a backup and see if that makes a difference? This is what Apple would tell you to do next based on my iphone 5 fiasco.
Make sure all your data is available on your computer for manual syncing later.
Since you did the hard reset I assume that means your home button isn't broken only that it got frozen before. Were you able to get the Apple logo after the reset? Did it boot?
And you are using iTunes 10.7?
I'm just trying to help get you going.

Automatic update of RemoteApp and Desktop Connections does not work (while manual updates with "update now" is working)

Hello,
on several Windows 7 Clients the update/refresh of the RemoteApp and Desktop Connections stopped not working automatically. There is a Update failed error. When we do an "Update Now" manually, it gets synchronized without problems.
I am asking me if there is an issue with a stored Password as we Need to Change the Passwords regularily. The error is occuring for Connections to all RDS Servers (we have severals).
Does Windows store the user Password in the Task Scheduler? If yes, does the schedule Task Password Change automatically after the Domain Password Change?
Or what else could be the issue? The RDS Server and the certificate (Name the same as the URL) seems to be fine as not all Clients have this issue.
Thank you for your help

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
By default it will automatically update the RemoteApp and Desktop Connections but if in any particular case it’s not happening then for a try you can restart the server and check the result again. In addition you can try running below command and check
the result.
Start-Process rundll32 -ArgumentList "tsworkspace,TaskUpdateWorkspaces2
More information:
Powershell to update "RemoteApp and Desktop Connections"
If a task is registered using the Administrators group for the security context of the task, then you must also make sure the Run with highest privileges check box is checked if you want to run the task. Please check “Task
Security Context” for more details.
Hope it helps!
Thanks,

HT4623 My sounds for such things as Netfix, or ABC Shows, etc does not work since last update. How do I fix that?

Sound not working since last upgrade. Get no sound with Netflix or ABC, NBC,etc. worked fine before last update.
How
do I fix this?

Hey Janetna5,
Thanks for the question. Does restarting your iPad help the issue?
Restarting your iOS device
1. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
2. After the device has turned off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
via iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If not, is it possible that your side switch is toggled to mute sounds? See this resource for information:
Volume buttons and the Side Switch - iPad User Guide
http://help.apple.com/ipad/7/#/iPad9940e758
Mute notifications, alerts, and sound effects. Slide the Side Switch toward the Volume buttons.
The Side Switch doesn’t mute the audio from music, podcasts, movies, and TV shows.
Thanks,

I had the same problem, I connected to a different computer that had itunes. It also was oneI never connected to before. I held the power botton and homebutton till it showed up connect to itunes. I opened up it tunes and it said my phone needed a phone software update, i folled the prompt and set it up as a new phone. Then i resored it, then put it on the computer u usually sync it on and restore it to a date the phone was working to, this helped me, if u want i can help u over the phone if u cant get it, let me know and i will send u my number over my email address, hope it works, basically i swiped the phone clean and reinstalled all software by taking these steps

My chat and private messaging is not working, i can still see everyone who is online but nothing happens when i click on them, I have shut down everything and started over, and still nothing, what do I do?

i can not chat or private message, i can post to others. what do i do

Your UserAgent string in Firefox is probably messed up by another program that you installed. 
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent]
type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter 
''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.'' 
Filter = '''general.useragent.''' 
Right-click the preferences that are '''bold''', one line at a time, and select '''''Reset'''''. 
Then restart Firefox
Once that is fixed, see if chat and private messaging are still giving you a problem.

Messages do not work since upgrading to Mountain Lion

I have used the AOL and MAC account for chatting with no problem, for years. Then about two weeks ago I updated to Mountain Lion, from Lion. Now under this Messages interface, I can see my messages going out, but nothing coming in. I only know this now because we are starting to receive emails and phone calls from family and friends asking why we have not been answering any of their messages. They see me as online, they send messages, but we don't get them. I type to them, I see what I am sending, but they don't get them. I have played with the individual accounts until I can get those up separately. I can then communicate with others on which ever individual account I have opened. With our telephone on speaker and each of us on the computer trying to figure this out, we were able to get that to work with one of our family members. But when I shut down the computer or restart, or close Messages, I have to start all over again to get an individual account to open separately before communicating.
I have an IPAD 2 and IPAD 3 in the house. The same problem appears to be happening with them. No more messages come in unless I have the individual account on the IMAC set up for that account. That doesn't make any sense since Mountain Lion isn't on either of the IPADs and the communications is through the Apple Extreme router, not the IMAC (I assume).
Also, all my previous attempts at communicating populate the messages window every time I open it. I have the preferences setup to delete all previous conversations, but that doesn't seem to work.
Thanks
Tim

Hi,
When you start Messages fro the first time you are asked for an Apple ID
When this is verified and entered it appears in Messages Menu > Preference > Accounts and is Enabled.
The App should have also picked on on those iChat Accounst you had before.
These should be Enabled if they were when you last used iChat.
Exactly which "Accounts" are logged in can be seen in Message Menu > Accounts and will include the iMessage "Account" and Bonjour.
In the Window menu you will see CMD +0 for the Messages window and CMD+1 for the "Buddies" window which is a combined list at this stage.
Go to the Preferences > General Section and Untick the "Collect all accounts into one list".
This will give you separate iChat type Buddy lists.
You can check if that account/Buddy list is set to Invisible or if in the Preferences > Accounts > Security you have settings that will block some people from seeing you as On line.
You are saying Buddies can see you as On Line which implies they are still sending to your AIM based Names (@Mac.com is a valid AIM Screen Name)
I am not sure from your post if you are trying to iMessage their email IDs thinking they are Apple IDs and that they are using Messages as well.
There is no Buddy list for iMessages side
No-one can tell you are "On Line" until they have your details in the "To" spot in Messages with the correct iMessaged contact info (iPhone Number or Apple ID)
Obviously an Apple ID can be an email or look like one.
In some cases they are also valid AIM Screen Names as well.
In the case or the @mac.com name you may have linked this Apple ID to iMessages as well.

Push messages are not working after iOS6 update

After updating my iPhone 4 to iOS6, push messages of apps like facebook, facebook messenger, whatsapp, google voice have stopped working in sleep mode.
I get mesaages only when I open the application.
I have tried to factory restore, install all the applications once again, sync phone from iTunes but no use.
Do anyone know why this is happening and what is the solution?

When you say delete firmware.. do you mean selecting reset on the phone and choosing erase all content and settings? Or actually going in to the phone to delete it?
I didn't try resetting the phone first, I can try that.
You can try that but that's not what I meant. The firmware gets save in your iTunes library os not matter how many often you restore your phone it will always restore from the firmware from your library. This firmware could have issues and as long as you restore from it it is more than likely you will keep having the same problems.
Here's how it works:
Mac:
Go to Finder> library>iTunes>iPhone software update.
There you will se the firmware version of your phone, Delete it and then restore. Note that now when you restore the phone, iTunes will re-download a new fresh firmware.
Windows:
Go to C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates.
apply the same procedure described above and you'll have the same result.
If are a windows user, when you get to the Documents and Setting folder, make sure that you select the option to view hidden folders from TOOLS> FOLDER OPTIONS> VIEW>SELECT VIEW HIDDEN FOLDERS so you can see the application data folder in case its not visible. And remember to sync as new phone
I would recomend doing this first.
Hope this helps and good luck.
