My restore didnt work when i updated to IOS5, and then it was overwritten. How can i get my old restore back??

Ijust updated my ipod touch to ios5 and it didnt restore. i unplugged and reconnected my cable to the PC but when i reconnected it, it backed up over the restore i was trying to get.

You can only get your old backup back, if you included it into your computer backup routine and could restore the backup folder for your ipod.
If you have no other backups, your info is gone.
iTunes and iOS do not support installing backups of newer versions of iOS onto devices using earlier versions of iOS.
iTunes will not back up automatically if you are using iCloud.
Have a new iOS device and need to move your previous backup onto it? Follow the steps in How to transfer your backup from one iOS device to a new device.

Updated iPhone 4 to iOS5, how do I get my apps from ITunes back into my phone?

Sync them as always.
If this fails, then reset your iphone and try again.
If that fails then restore your iphone and try again.

Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5. You can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

Ever since updating to 6.0, my internet crashes, my app store crashes, EVERYTHING crashes. It's very annoying to say the least. How can I get the old version back????

I'm getting really annoyed that my iPod keeps crashing thanks to 6.0. When is this going to get fixed or how can I get the previous version back??

I had a iPod 4G and it suffered crashes after upgrading to iOS6, especially in the App Store and iTunes store. Safari often crashed as well, but it occurred same as before I upgraded.
My iPod barely had any apps on it, having only 3GB used of 6.5GB available space (I had 8GB version).
I got the new iPod Touch 5th generation a few days ago and it works perfectly. Never had a single crash running any app, game, or store.
This has led me to believe that iOS6 was primiarily for the new line of devices and not really optimized for the previous generation. Thus, I think that iOS6 may be the last highest supported OS for the iPod-4 and the iPhone-4 and 4S and future operating systems will not be compatible with the previous generation.

My NEW Iphone 4 'restored' to my 3rd generation Ipod touch. How can I get the old settings back?

Please Help! I just got an IPhone 4 today from work and I wanted to 'sync' my IPod touch apps to the Iphone and it 'restored' to my OLD 3G Ipod Touch settings! How can I get it back to what it was when I received it from work? My work email account is completely GONE and it was already all set up when I recieved the phone. I am extremely worried that I won't be able to go back to what it was! PLease please tell me I can restore it back to how it was....with my email account all set up and everything. I would appreciate any help I can get...I just can't believe I did this!!! THANK YOU!

Unless the device was backed up prior to restoring the backup from the iPod Touch, there is nothing to restore.
Just set up the email account again... it's not difficult, but you may need information from your corporate IT dept to set it up.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Offand, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"
If these do not solve the problem you can restore from a current iTunes or iCloud backup.

How can I get the old version back, because this new is so poor, it doesn't work. My curcor doesn't appeart and can use secont tab.

If I have one tab open and I try to open other, cursor doen't appeart. And If I open youtube I can't write for the search box.
So I want the old version back, how can I get it.

First you'll need to download the old version from here.
http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
Once you have chosen your language and operating system type then download it from the list on that page.
Next you will have to uninstall the current version of Firefox by using the add/remove programs option under control panel. After the current Firefox has been removed you can then run the installer for the old version. Using this method will not save your bookmarks or any addon's/extensions so make sure you have a list of the addon's you want to get back and you can also backup your bookmarks from within your current version of Firefox prior to removing it.
Do note that some extensions that you may have installed were installed by 3rd party programs and they will not be reinstalled until the program that installed them has been either updated or reinstalled as well.

You should copy everything from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

I recently updated my friends iphone to ios5 and he lost everything. How can I get it back?

My friend's computer is too slow for him to update his iphone himself and asked me to do it. I did it and once ios5 downloaded it couldnt find his back up and he lost it all. I was hoping there is something i can do to help him. There has to be some way to get it back that i can understand without using back up.

This is a perfect example of why to only do updates on the computer that the device is synced with.
Plug the device into the computer it normally syncs with and restore it.
If you really wanted to help, you would have bought him a newer comptuer.
