Need to revert back to copper service

Anyone know how to get Verizon to revert back from FIOS to standard copper service? I have tried for 2 months and customer service either processes incorrect info or promises to fulfill request, but nothing has been done. Last cust. service person I talked with told me "couldn't be done in my area." Either they are not trained properly or I'm the victim of a scam. I cannot have a phone that doesn't operate in a power failure, so short of hiring an attorney and getting a doctor's statement, I'm really at a lost where to turn. Thank you.

I'm sorry you are having difficulty. An agent with access to your account will reach out to you directly by email, private message in the Forums and/or the billing telephone number on your Verizon account for more information or to help you resolve your issue.

Congratulations, Verizon. if you are trying to toy with your customers, you have found the way. We have been without phone service for 8 days now. Daily calls to Verizon, lasting hours, and daily emails, have gotten us nowhere. Our service was taken away as part of a new "bundle." The sweet sales[person never mentioned we were losing our land line and now only the "Elite Department" can restore it.
Thiis is the most surreal customer service experience I have ever had, with each person I talk to full of fictoion and obfuscation. AMong the lies: We are available until 9 p.m. at 1-800-verizon. Not true. You canceled you service last month. Not true. Your new service has the highest speed Internet possible. (Internet suddenly is nonexistent or putters along.
We have small children and need to make sure we have 911 access. Can anyone explain why it's so hard ot restore our service? Especially when we never ordered this "digital voice" package? I keep seeing that everyones comments are edited on this forum and no one from Verizon is responding.

Need help reverting back to SL from Lion. MacBook won't boot up!!!

I am hoping someone can help with this issue. I am trying to revert back to Snow Leopard after upgrading to Lion on my MacBook, but it doesn't seem to be working. After upgrading to Lion, I found out the hard way that Quicken 2007 no longer works. Since I use this regularly, I need to at least export my data out of there to use in a Lion-friendly program. However, it seems the only way that I can do this is to down-grade back to Snow Leopard first. I have been using Time Machine for regular backups for over a year now, and my most recent backup was right before upgrading to Lion.
Here is what I have done so far:
- I booted up in Restore Mode and selected the backup on my Time Capsule that I wanted to restore from. I then selected my HD to restore to. The restore took a little over 2 hours, and it appeared to have been successful. However, upon restarting, it seems to lock up on the initial screen with the Apple logo and the spinning wheel.
- I then booted up with the Snow Leopard disc and tried reloading Snow Leopard, but it wouldn't let me erase the HD. I used the Disk Utility to check the HD, and it appears to be functional. For some reason, I am not able to eject the Snow Leopard disc.
- After rebooting in Restore Mode again (the Snow Leopard disc is still inserted), I again tried restoring from a backup on my Time Capsule. It again took a little over 2 hours, and appeared to be successful. However, after rebooting, it again locks up on the initial screen with the Apple logo and the spinning wheel.
This all took up about 7 hours of my time last night, and I finally gave up. I was able to power down my MacBook, but the Snow Leopard disc is still in it, since it would not eject.
Before upgrading to Lion, I downloaded and installed all available updates. The last Time Machine backup was done after these updates.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can successfully get Snow Leopard back on my MacBook?

OK, the install disc ejected this time. I was finally able to reload Snow Leopard successfully, however, it wouldn't let me restore from my latest TM backup. It gave me some sort of message about the case not being correct. (I guess I should have written down the exact message).
Anyway, I then rebooted in restore mode with the SL disc, and selected my last TM backup before the Lion install, and almost 3 hours later, it tells me that the system was successfully restored. It then told me I needed to restart the system, which I did. However, it still locks up on the screen with the Apple logo and the spinning wheel. Should I have removed the SL disc first before restarting?
Considering all of the above, it appears that there is nothing wrong with my HD, which leaves me wondering what the actual issue is?

IF you can erase, my preference at this point would to do a clean install from your SL Install disk and then in SetUp Assistant choose to migrate from your TM volume .
Maybe I should do this? How do I go about erasing my HD? When I did the install of SL, I noticed that I still had some of my old stuff (i.e. all of my iTunes music), so obviously, the HD was not erased before the install. Once I have erased the HD and done the clean install, how do I get to the SetUp Assistant to migrate from my TM volume? Will this restore everything back to the way it was before the upgrade to Lion?

Updated to ver 8. Not working properly need to revert back to 7. Can this be done

mmy iPad is not working correctly since I updated it to version 8. It now takes ages turning on every thig is glitchy. Can't use it very slow, can I revery it to version 7 where it worked ok.

It needs some time to settle things down after upgrade. Give it several hours, maybe a whole day, and do a full restart (better two)
The wi-fi problems aside, this should help.

I need to revert back to Firefox 3.6 The new version is not compatible with my Speedlings program. How can I get a 3.6 copy of Firefox? Thanks! Russ

I originally had Firefox 3.6 and my Speedlings program was working fine with it. Then I updated to 4.0 and Speedlings is not functioning properly. I called Speedlings and they said to use the Firefox 3.6 version and I would be fine.

To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

Firefox automatically upgraded to 4.0 and we didn't want it to. We need to revert back to 3.6 because our school website doesn't support 4.0 Where can we get the 3.6 files? I keep getting broken links

we use the OLS for k12.com and it is not 4.0 compatible. We knew it wasn't so were delaying the 4.0 upgrade. It installed itself last night

Thanks one again. I know you helped me the last to. I do have the Deja Vu font set in my folder. I downloaded and the last time. So I don't know if there is supposed to be more or not, but those were installed with Windows-XP after my reformat.
This is really driving me nuts. as I've done several re-formats on my computer and several friends computers and even upgraded hardware so I am not necessarily a software or programming expert, I am somewhat advanced when it comes to computers in general and can usually diagnose the problem but these font's are the problem and they never were before.
I did see in another forum that if you had a Dell Computer and did the Microsoft update for the onboard video card driver that it could be the culprit, but I have that disabled being I have a much better graphics card so the updates from Microsoft for the onboard video weren't installed.
It' a Dell Dimension 3000 with an Intel(R) 82865G Graphics Controller so I don't believe it is the culprit being it is disabled. The actual video card that I am using is a PCI Nvidia GeForce 9400 GT with 1 GB Memory. And I didn't have any problem before.
I appreciate the help. But still can't get things to work. Live Help Chat doesn't open for another two hours so maybe they can do "Remote Access" or something and can check setting and help me. But if you come up with other suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again.

HT4718 Hi. Has anyone sucessfully reverted back to Lion from Mountain Lion? Was there anything i need to be aware of? Thanks

The only program i really use is M-Audio Torq Connectiv for djing. Now i've updated to mountain lion this software/hardware no longer works. M-audio arent updating this particular software so i need to revert back to lion....help!!

You can't use the Mountain Lion altered TimeMachine drive with a older operating system version, your files are trapped.
You first need to get back to Mountain Lion, and restore from TimeMachine so you have access to your files.
Next you dig through your files and get to portions that are neutral file formats, like .jpg, mp3, .gif, text, doc etc., and that will work across nearly all computers and operating system versions. You basically want to get your files/data out of proprietary 10.8 program only versions and into something you can manage importing into older versions of programs on the older operating system.
Once that is completed you want to copy all this to a external drive, if you work with Windows, take the new external drive to the oldest Windows machine and right click and format exFAT. If it's a XP machine, there is a free exFAT download from Microsoft to install and reboot first. This way you have the most compatible format for your files possible. The Mac formats exFAT incorrectly and will not work with PC's. If your never going to work with PC's you can format the drive GUID /OS X Extended Journaled in Apple's Disk Utlity. Don't format MBR/MSDOS as that has a 4GB file size limit. Don't format NTFS as Mac's can't write to that.
Once you have all your files off the machine and the external drive disconnected, your now ready to revert back to a older OS X version.
If you originally had Snow Leopard on the machine, then that's the disks you want, even if the machine came with 10.5 or earlier.
How to erase and install Snow Leopard 10.6
Once that is installed, you Software Update fully to 10.6.8 where AppStore appears and you can reinstall 10.7, if it's not there or you upgraded directly to 10.8, then call Apple and order 10.7 and they will send it to you online.
Once your on 10.7 then install your apps and then access your basic files from the storage drive.
The 10.8 TimeMachine drive will somehow have to be erased so it can be setup to be used with 10.7 again, not sure how to go about this as I don't use it, it's terribly limiting for my needs.
If you used a bootable clone for backup of 10.8, you could have avoided all this mess because cloned drives are directly accessible to get at the files from nearly any operating system, unlike TimeMachine which is designed to trap and only move forward with OS X upgrades.

What is the best method to revert back to 'golden' image of database

Hello,
I want to have a 'golden' image of my test database. What is the best method to keep reverting back to this 'golden' image after testers are done with testing. What I mean is I want to set up a test database for testers. Testers can insert,update, delete on objects as they like. But after the testers have completed their testing, I want to revert the database back to the 'golden' image. This 'golden' image is the state of the database before testers perform their tests. I need to revert back to the 'golden' image many times over as we have to perform many different tests.
I thought about export and import (9i database) but takes 6 hours, too long. I tried using rman and was successful the first time, (set until time; restore database; recover database; open resetlogs;). The seconde time using rman, I got error saying the set until time was before the resetlogs time. I think I would have to restore the control file before the resetlog time frame before I can recover to the set until time, again.
What is a straight forward method to have a 'golden' image so I can keep on restoring back to it? This database is a test 9i database and it is in archive log mode but it doesn't need to be. I just need a best practice method, whether it is rman, exp/imp, manual backup/restore? Something I can use time and time over again. Thank you.

If it is a Test envionment, can you just take a COLD Backup (database files
plus control files) ? How big is the database ? What platform is it on ?
eg in a COLD Backup
a. If using a script, run multiple "cp" (or cpio/tar) commands in parallel to
copy different database files
b. If using RMAN (in NOMOUNT), use multiple Chnanels.
Note : Remember to include ControlFile Backups and Restores as well.

Can we revert back a transport

Hi,
Recently we have imported a transport request in D environment which is given by SAP. As there are some errors we need to revert back that transport. We do not have option to retrieve the previous version in Version management. Because all objects are standard objects. So is there a way to revert back the transport request?
Swapna.

Hi Swapna,
I dont know whether this may give solution to you.
As You didnt transport the request yet to Quality System, so you can copy the code which is currently avialable in Quality back to Development system for the object.
Thanks,
Vinay

How to revert back the changes that are moved to Production

Hi all,
We have done changes to my DC.We moved the activity into production.We need to revert back the changes in all the systems.
Is there any procedure to acheive this?
Thanks and Regards,
Rajesh.A

Hi,
If the changes have been saved, then there is no automatic way of reverting the changes. To get the Infoset in the reqd state, you will have to move an unchanged copy into the dev sys. The easiest way would be to transport a copy from the Prod sys. But first you have to check whether the transport path exists. With the help of Basis team, you can do this.
wish u luck.

Rahul

Can I revert back to iPhoto '09?

I can't use iPhoto '11 and need to revert back to iPhoto '09... But I don't still have an iPhoto '09 version of my library...
I use the 'Tell a friend' feature after uploading the gallery to mobileme, but in iPhoto '11 - my clients don't see the email.. most of my corporate clients just get 'blank' emails (the server actually strips the images but leaves 'white' text from the template on a white page!). I also don't like the fact you can only enter 3 or 4 lines of text in the email compared to the flexibility of iPhoto '09...
My question is - Can I delete iPhoto '11 and reinstall iPhoto '09 from the install disc? I don't mind losing my iPhoto library as I use Lightroom and iView for my archive.. iPhoto is mainly just for getting images to clients conveniently...
Is this possible yet? I've read lots of threads saying you'll need an '09 library... Can you not to a clean install of '09 over the top of '11?

Have you tried sending the notification from the gallery online? Maybe that will go thru successfully.
Or you can use regular email, perhaps with one of the stationary layouts, to send a new gallery notification.
Click to view full size
If you go back to iPhoto 09 you will have to start over with a new library and import the Masters folder and its contents from your current iPhoto 11 library. You will lose all of your keywords, titles, descriptions, albums, books, cards, calendars and slideshows.
I'd give the regular email with stationary a try before going back to iPhoto 09 and losing all of my organizational efforts.

Questions about Reverting Back

Okay, I upgraded to Lion when it came out and I've loved it, but I need to revert back to Snow Leopard because I need Adobe Reader to work for school. I've found instructions about reverting back in other threads but I have some other questions that go along with the process.
1. It says to back up my files first. I know this sounds stupid, but I don't think I've ever done this before. Is there a free site online where I can upload my documents/music/photos? I don't have an external hard drive.
2. The only two apps I'm worried about losing are Microsoft Office and BusySync. What should I do about those?
Basically, I need really, really elementary instructions on how to do this. I'm not very computer-savvy and I need to be running Snow Leopard by the time school starts back this week.

Firstly, have you considered the alternative of creating a new partition on your drive on which you would install Snow Leopard? This way you can keep Lion yet have the luxury of booting into Snow Leopard when you need it. Just a thought.
Secondly, here's what you need to do if you decide to downgrade:
Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.
