Is it possible to restore iOS 6.X.X after upgrading to iOS 7.X.X

I'm intrested in the UI of iOS 6.X.X, as I dont like the UI of iOS 7.0.2. I would like to change it back for sometime atleast.

Sorry, No. Apple does not provide a way to go back to previous versions of iOS.

Apple's U/I target demo lately has been women. Sad fact, but already proven by several design study articles and business analytics that look at which market share demographic was growing fastest when it parsed through Apple's sales.

It's sad that women are a target demographic? Why?
As part of that demographic, I can't say that I get the feeling that Apple is trying to appeal to me. It seems to me that they are assuming that ALL of their users are fairly clueless, not just the female users.
I hardly think the interface changes are due to a desire to market to women. They certainly aren't impressing me, whatever the intent. I don't hate the look of Yosemite, but I don't like it, either. The translucency is a bizarre touch, pointless in terms of function and at odds with the generally joyless flat aesthetic.

HT4528 How do I restore all my photos? After upgrading my iPhone all photos were gone.

How do I restore all my photos? After upgrading my iPhone, all my photos were gone.

What photos?
Photos taken with the iphone should be imported to your computer regularly as with any digital camera, most especially before any update or restore. If you failed to do this, then they are likely gone. You can try restoring from backup.
Photos synced from your computer should still be on your computer an in you regular backup copy of your computer.

ITunes won't recognize my password to restore my iPhone backup file after upgrading to ios5

iTunes won't recognize my password to restore my iPhone backup file after upgrading to ios5.
Tried every password I've ever used and tried resetting my password. Nothing works!
Any advice?

Nope. You obviously didn't read (or didn't remember) the User Guide. I will include a link for you. If you use the iPhone as Apple recommends (so that you do NOT experience data loss), frequent backups are advised, as are synching contacts/calendars with an appropriate cloud service or computer-based contact manager like Outlook.

Is it possible to restore individual apps and files after clean install of Lion?

My new iMac is one of the small group that is having HDD drive replaced due to issue with 1TB Seagate drives.
When I get it back I'd like to install a clean copy of Lion and not restore whole system from TimeMachine.
However I don't want to lose my iTune or Aperture Libraries. Is it possible to restore just these libraries form TimeMachine backup or is there a better way to go? Email is all IMAP so not an issue, F/Fox & Safari bookmarks and all contacts & iCal material are likewise MobileMe/cloud based so not an issue.
Just after safest and best solution.
Thanks

The short answer is: yes you can restore only these libraries from the last Time Machine backup. It's quite easy
1) Clean install Lion
2) Enter time machine from the menu bar while pressing "option" (Browse other Time Machine disks).
3) Restore the Libraries.
Individual apps are tricker - depending on how they were installed in the first place. Anything that used an installer, and may rely on library frameworks (e.g iwork or MS Office) is not going to work easily with this method.

Approach to restore CMS DB and Filestore after upgrade

Hi,
I'm looking for the best possible approach to restore the FileStore and CMS DB after upgrade.
We are on BO XI 3.1 SP2. And we are applying SP6 on top of it.
The current approach decided is - Completely Uninstall BO > Install SP6 Full Build > Restore old FileStore and CMS DB. The CMS DB is SQL Server.
My Questions are:
Keeping in mind backup of FileStore and CMS DB would be taken before the upgrade, can I completely uninstall BO and install SP6 Full Build with the default CMS Database SQL Anywhere, then later -
a. Replace the FileStore folder with the backed up FileStore?
b. Repoint the CMS to the old CMS DB?
I understand, I would need to recreate the SIA to create the server entries. Having done all the above, would ALL the Users, Reports, Universes etc be restored with this approach?
Thank you so much for your attention.

Hi Jawahar,
We faced a problem during our DEV Server upgrade to SP6 from SP2 to SP4 to SP6 with a manifest file which is why we had to uninstall BO (suggestion from SAP) and do a SP6 Full Build install.
So, to keep the UAT and PROD Servers in sync, we decided this approach.
The DEV Server upgrade was done by our previous Admin and there were no backups (FileStore/CMS DB/BIAR) maintained, so we lost everything and replicated the UAT Server contents. It took a lot of time.
Another reason I opt for SP6 Full Build for UAT is because of the issue reported in KB 1844998 - Tomcat 5.5 does not get upgraded to Tomcat 7 during SP6 update. And I'm not really confident with Silent Install.
Let me know.
Thanks again.

Unable to restore to 10.6.8 after upgrade to Lion

After my troubles upgrading to Lion (see Cannot login after Lion Update), I decided to try a restore to 10.6.8 on my TimeMachine.
I inserted the 10.6 upgrade DVD, booted off of it, and restored to a TM backup dated before I even purchased / downloaded Lion. That restore took a few hours and appeared to proceed without a hitch. When trying to reboot, though, I'm never able to get past the initial grey screen with the Apple logo and the spinning gear. I never see the login screen. I've left it in this state for about 5 minutes with no visible progress.
I'm concerned that somehow the 10.7 install's secret hidden restore partition is preventing a TimeMachine restore, which is _very_ concerning.
I have successfully used the method above (booting off 10.6 DVD and restoring) before on this machine (e.g. when upgrading the hard drive). So I have some evidence that this was successful before the Lion install.
Needless to say (and I'm apparently not alone), the Lion upgrade appears to have not only made my system unusable but unrestorable.
Has anyone else encountered this sort of situation? Is there some different procedure I need to use for this kind of a restore?
Is anyone at Apple aware of testing the scenario of restoring to 10.6.8 from 10.7? It would seem important to be sure that TimeMachine worked to restore to a point before the upgrade.
Thanks.

Thanks for the responses. To clarify, I have done just about everything I could imagine to do a clean install and have now spoken with AppleCare for over four hours following their suggestions. This includes:
Booting from the 10.6 install disk, repartitioning the HD with a single partition (to attempt to remove any evidence of the Lion recovery partition from the borked Lion install), and, using the "Restore From Time Machine" option when booting off the 10.6 DVD, restoring a backup
Booting from the 10.6 install disk, repartitioning the HD, doing a clean install of OS X 10.6. This brings me to a clean install; any attempt to at this point do a Migration using either the Migration Manager or again booting off the 10.6 DVD and restoring a backup returns me to the same non-functional scenario (spinning gear forever on system startup)
Booting from the 10.6 install disk, repartitioning the HD, doing a clean install of OS X 10.6, attempting to copy files from my TM images by hand; not really going to result in a usable system state, esp. when it comes to things in ~/Library/Application Support.
This is not an issue of not doing a clean install as far as I can see. Unless every backup on my drive is bad for the last month, this is not an issue of a bad backup, since I've now tried many of them. (The less pleasant scenario is that FV / TM backups are silently writing unrestorable backups). Unless the reparitioning does not remove the Lion recovery partition, it is not a question of the Lion recovery partition lying around. I have asked several folks about whether the Lion QA process included attempting to restore a 10.6 OS. I have no answer on that; I would be disturbed if it didn't include such a step; making sure you can return to a previous known good state after an install is pretty fundamental.
I'm at a bit of a loss at this point. I've tried everything I can think of to get back to a known good system state after following best practices on backups and suggestions from AppleCare. As far as I can see, my TM backups are unrestorable and there's been no indication of this the entire time I've been relying on TM as a safety net.

Possible to restore iOS (7) with saved SHSH Blobs?

Hello.
I currently own an iPod Touch 5th Generation running iOS 7.1.1 (I never bothered upgrading to 7.1.2 while Apple still signed that firmware). With the latest installment of iOS (8.1), A5 devices such as the iPhone 4s, iPad 2nd Generation, and even the iPod Touch 5th Gen are known to function poorly, given that iOS 8 is optimized for newer hardware.
What I am wondering is, should I need to restore my iPod Touch, the latest software will automatically be installed - giving no option to decline the update without halting the restore. I have managed to save iOS 7.1.1 SHSH blobs, which I understand are per-requisites to downgrading an iDevice's software (or at least once were). Would I be able to downgrade iOS 8(.1) to 7.1.1 with the saved SHSH file (if my iPod ever did update to iOS 8 for whatever reason) or would a downgrade require more than an SHSH, such as an APTicket?
Any help would be much appreciated - whether it is a yes or no answer.
Thanks.

All I can say in the Apple forum is that Apple does not support downgrading the iOS. If yo restore you will go to iOS 8.1

Restoring files from Time Capsule after upgrading from Leopard to Snow Leopard.

I just purchased Time Capsule so I could back up all 105GB of data from my 2 year old, iMac 24 running Leopard.
I've been having issues, especially with Safari, so I'm (finally) upgrading to Snow Leopard.
My Time Capsule is being used as a SAN and is joining my already existing network via ethernet connection.
When I install Snow Leopard, I plan on blowing out Leopard and running Snow Leopard fresh from scratch, not doing an upgrade.
Will I be able to restore my files, iTunes, and photos from Time Capsule like if I were moving them from a flash drive, even though my iMac has changed?
I don't know if I'm thinking that Time Capsule is getting an image of my iMac and when I blow it out and load Snow Leopard on it, it won't be able to read it again...
But I'm thinking if the answer if yes, which mean I could move files backed up from my iMac to my MacBook Air. Right?
Thanks

Anyone has an answer?

Will I be able to restore a 3.1 backup after upgrading to 3.2?

I recently had my phone replaced because of the random shutdown issues that came along with the 3.1 software update. The phone came with 3.0.1 installed, and since I didn't want to risk ending up with the same problems all over again, I didn't install the 3.1 update. However iTunes wont let me restore from the backup I made of my old phone, event though it's supposedly only restoring contacts, SMS messages and app settings. Once whatever software that follows 3.1 is released, will I be able to restore from the 3.1 backup that I have?

all long as the iphone software is the same or a later version then the backup file then you will be able to restore the phone from that backup... so in your case updating to 3.x (x= the next update) then you can restore from that 3.1 backup you have

HT4972 is my Time Machine backup sufficient to reload my iPad2 after Upgrading to IOS 5?

Is my Time Machine backup acceptable to restore data to my iPad2 after upgrading the OS system to IOS 5?

Not quite sure what you mean. Time Machine doesn't talk directly to the iPad, so there's no "restore from Time Machine" option when you restore the iPad. When you make a backup in iTunes, that backup is stored in a support folder, and when you restore it, you should see that option appear - but TM is not involved.

I recently updated my iPhone to the new iOS and it no longer works with my inbuilt car bluetooth. Is it possible to restore to my previous iOS system?

Delete the pairing and then re-pair the devices.
There are no supported methods to downgrade the iOS.

How can I restore my iPhone 4's iOS5 backup without restoring iOS if the option to "Restore from Backup" doesn't appear when I right click it in the device list?

(Lengthy question, I know Let me explain.)
A few days ago, I decided to clear out the music on my computer. So, I copied everything out of iTunes to my external hard drive (podcasts, music, movies, tv shows, books, and apps) and deleted all that I could find, including the iTunes folder. I forgot that the iTunes library files were in there, and those went too; unsurprisingly, I was greeted with an empty library when I next opened iTunes. After adding all my files back from my external hard drive, everything's all good there - no lost files, everything seems fine. However, since my library is a "new" library, iTunes wishes to erase everything on my iPhone 4. Which is also fine, for everything except my apps. I'd really rather not lose all my application settings and data that are saved in my backup. But, I cannot just "Restore from Backup" by right-clicking my device in the list in iTunes, so... I haven't synced my iPhone since I did this, so all of my data is still on there, but it's in the backup as well. If I have to erase all iTunes content, I definitely have to be able to restore the backup over it since I don't want to lose all my settings and Springboard layout. I'd prefer not to restore iOS because I don't want to go from iOS5 to 5.0.1, nor do I have 8 hours to download the IPSW file on my super-speedy internet connection Any guidance on restoring my iPhone from its backup?

Here's an interesting bit: iTunes will let me restore my iPod touch from backup: it's still running iOS 4.3.3. I figured as much... there's backups showing in the Preferences -> Devices list for both devices (and even my old, long gone iPod touch 2G), but my iPhone (on iOS5) isn't giving me any such option. I remember I had to downgrade before to get the backup restored (something went haywire in the setup assistant, and I couldn't restore a backup from iTunes there)... If it was possible to go to iOS 5.0 rather than 5.0.1 I would just do the same thing again, but iOS 5.0.1 isn't an option. I attached a screenshot. Hopefully Apple can get this nonsense sorted out; I think iOS 5 might be the root of this, somehow.

I lost my iPhone 4S. Is it possible to restore the data from the 4S-Backup to my old 3S?S

Hello,
I lost my iPhone 4S. Is it possible to restore the data from the 4S-Backup to my old 3S? How can I do it?
Thank you very much.
:-) Michael

Thank you very much for this information.
I have the newest version of iOS 5.1.1 on my 3S. But I get the data from the last backup of my 3S. The programms are at the same level like the 4S.
Is it possible to get the data from Time Machine?

Is it possible to restore what iTunes deleted from my iPhone?

Hello
I am using two notebooks, one with Windows 8 and one with Mac OS X Snow Leopard. I usually use the Windows notebook to charge or sync my iPhone 4 (iOS 7.0.4), but I forgot it at work, so a few minutes ago I connected my iPhone with the Snow Leopard (I don't have any internet connection except carrier 3g network, and my iPhone doesn't allow me to tether it to the Mac), but I couldn't authorize iTunes. Suddenly all my applications dissapeared. I have two apps on my iPhone for work, who store some sensitive data related to my job. And now they are gone.
1. Is it possible to restore these apps and the data I lost?
2. Why does Apple require internet connection for such things, when some people don't have?
<Edited by Host>

The iPhone is designed to sync to a single computer. It seems as though you had the Mac set to automatically sync when an iPhone was connected. Bad move on your part. It should, however had prompted you not to sync or you would lose content.
If you have been syncing this to the computer at home (Win8), then your content should be there, and you could restore to the latest backup you have on that computer.
Not sure the answer to the Internet question, but depending on what you were doing, the Internet is not necessary for a regular sync.
You are the one that chose to connect the phone to the other comptuer. Apple didn't force you. No grounds for any kind of litigation.
