Want to downgrade from 2 lines to 1

If anyone has advice, I would greatly appreciate it!
My problem: my old phone broke at the end of December 2010. Went to Verizon store. Did not have warranty, so was going to have to pay full price for new phone. Instead I was told I could just add a line for 9.99 a month and not pay anything for a new phone.
Now, MyVerizon won't let me cancel the extra line. I am eligible for an upgrade, but it looks like I am stuck with the extra line for 2 years!
What leverage do I have now?

Now, MyVerizon won't let me cancel the extra line. I am eligible for an upgrade, but it looks like I am stuck with the extra line for 2 years! When you purchased (or "didn't pay anything" for the new phone), you signed a contract to keep that line for 2 years . . .
What leverage do I have now? Not much - pay the ETF to cancel the line; find a friend who will pay you $10-$15 to have a phone for a couple of years . . .

Hi, I want to downgrade from OSX LEOPARD to OSX TIGER but I have a few questions regarding this. My iMac is originally from Sep 2007 it came preloaded with tiger. I have original install (2) tiger discs version 10.4.10. I want to know if it is safe and what are the necessary steps to do so. Also by downgrading im wondering if a lot of apps nowadays support tiger for example I have photoshop version 5 and 4 these are very important to me. One last question does anyone know of any reliable virus protection for mac that doesnt slow down your computer? because I have read that a lot of them do so. If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it! Here are the specs for my iMac

Most of the time a perception of general slow performance is the result of installing third party junk alleged to speed up, "clean" or "optimize" your Mac, or to look for viruses that don't exist. Ideally you would know what you installed so you can uninstall it, but if you don't know or aren't sure there are techniques such as Safe Mode and creating a temporary user account to confirm that suspicion.
If you open Activity Monitor it may show a process, or processes, that occupy a lot of your system's time.
Slowness confined solely to web browser activity is often the result of an inexorable progress toward websites that demand ever more processor-intensive tasks. If your slow performance is strictly limited to web browsing, you might try disabling Flash by either uninstalling it, or use utilities such as ClickToFlash that allow you to control what Flash content gets loaded. Flash in itself is not inherently evil, but there is nothing to stop websites or the advertisers who pay for them from writing horrible Flash code that can do everything from hogging 100% of your CPU's time to causing random crashes. You can watch Activity Monitor as in the above to correlate these troublesome web pages with performance degradation.
You are correct; if your computer shipped with Tiger you may certainly revert to it. I forgot that Tiger was shipping on new Macs as recently as five years ago. To downgrade it would be necessary to completely erase your hard disk and boot with the Tiger installation DVD, followed by installing it anew. Such drastic measures are not necessary and you are unlikely to be satisfied with the results anyway.
Assuming your system is free of third party parasitic junk attached to OS X in an ill-conceived attempt to improve upon it, that your hard disk drive is sound and the boot volume has enough free space to work with, by far the best performance-enhancing improvement would be to add more memory. Buy as much as your computer can use and that you can afford. 2 GB is not that much any more.

Downgrading isn't possible. iTunes won't install iOS versions older than the latest compatible release, and if one's somehow installed anyway, Apple's servers won't activate the device afterwards.

If you are talking about re-activating a phone you already have on the line with the iPhone, yes you can do that. There are no fees to switch from phone to phone.

I want to downgrade from Mavericks to Snow Leopard. How can I do this?

I want to downgrade my 2009 IMac from Mavericks to Snow Leopard. Please explain how I do this.

Insert the Mac OS X 10.6 DVD, restart the computer with the C key held down, and install Snow Leopard onto a blank volume. If needed, use the Disk Utility to erase or repartition the internal drive.

I want to downgrade from mac os x marvels to snow leopard

Like marvics is cool, but I would like to downgrade back from marvics to snow lepoard.
Its telling me that my original install disk is not compatible help pls
Technical information/errors:
You can't use this version of the applicaiton "Install mac os X" with this version of os X.
You have install mac os X 23.1.1.
And then it talks about how it cannot be used because its a power pc application.
the computer originally came with Snow lepoard

Clean Install of Snow Leopard
Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
the drive and everything on it.
     1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
         with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
         After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
         a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
     2. 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.
         After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
         size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
         partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
         and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
         (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
     3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
         with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
     4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
         Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
         username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
         Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
         install of OS X. You can now begin the update process by opening Software
         Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

Want to downgrade from Leopard to Tiger - what are my options?

Hi,
I installed Leopard on my partner's iBook G4 (1.2ghz) and its speed has reduced to a crawl. I would like to go back and re-install Tiger from its original install discs but need to retain the home folder. What are my options and am I going to come across any issues downgrading? (aside from any apps that require Leopard)
Thanks,
Neil

If you had an external FireWire hard disk drive enclosure,
of the bootable-type chipset, Mac compatible, and chose
to clone the Leopard full installation to that external drive
(as most externals do have or can be equipped with a
faster spinning hard disk drive, it boots performance and
could be used at home for desktop computing) it is very
possible to clone the OS X and everything off the iBook
and again try your luck with Tiger 10.4.11 in the iBook.
If clones appear to be an option, be certain the cloned
computer contents (a full computer clone) is made on
a partitioned hard disk drive in proper enclosure; and
the clone is tested prior to erasing the host computer's
original drive contents. You can make clones and then
there are Clones. Some can just work, but once in
awhile, they don't. The two well known clone utilities
are good options, and reading up on the topic helps.
re: Carbon Copy Cloner, Bombich; and Super Duper.
Free space may be at a premium in the small internal
hard disk drive of the iBook; and older previous system
folders, saved from other Archives, Updates, etc may
have to be looked for, and trashed if they exist.
The latest iLife 09 was not recommended in some
hardware configurations by users and others who
tried that version in older PPC hardware; the iTunes
is a download, so it should work in Tiger equally well.
The iDVD and iMovie, may have issues; iPhoto is
OK in some older PPC G4s and not others.
And older applications added to the installation which
worked well under Tiger may not be happy in Leopard.
And your mileage may vary...
Good luck & happy computing!

How Do I Downgrade From Windows Vista To XP On A 3000 N100 Series Notebook?

Hello. Here is the problem. I have Windows Vista Pre-loaded on my 3000 N100 Notebook, absolutely dislike this operating system and want to erase and load Windows XP. From reading other forum messages I have learned several things.
1) The install disk On Windows XP Home & Professional will not recognize Sata Hard Drives, when it reaches the point of loading where it looks for the hard drive it "BOMBS OUT" with error messages.
Several options are open .............
1) Log into the BIOS, locate the SATA option, and change to compatibility mode.
2) Have a USB external floppy connected with a Sata Driver on it and when installing Windows XP press the "F6" button when Windows asks for any external drivers you want to load.
Here is the problem with the 3000 N100 Notebook series..........
1)There is "NO SATA OPTION" in the BIOS of the 3000 N100 series notebooks to choose. In this model Lenovo stripped the BIOS down to the bare essentials.......and I Do Mean.... "BARE". The latest BIOS upgrade also has no Sata option. Why they did not offer at least this choice of downgrading to XP is beyond me. LENOVO..... I'm not impressed with your notebook. As usual.... Microsoft has all vendors jumping to their tune..... Nothing but "VISTA" at this point in time. What if you hate it??????
2) I have hunted all over the Lenovo Web Site for a "SATA DRIVER" that would work with a 3000 N100 Notebook, no such critter exists. LENOVO..... Couldn't you have at least offered this???? I'M NOT IMPRESSED.
Has anyone been able to downgrade to Windows XP successfully on a 3000 N100 Series Notebook??? How Did You Do It?? Has Anyone Located A "SATA DRIVER" That Works??? IF So, Please Explain To Me Step-By-Step How I Can Get Rid of Vista and Load XP.
Help........Help.......Help........Help......Help!!!!!!!!!!!
Regards

Hello Himleung. Thank you for answering this message. Where did you find a "Sata Hard Drive Driver" that works?? Perhaps you could pass that along to this message forum in case someone else that has a 3000 N100 (may also work with the N200 series) Notebook wants to downgrade from Vista to Windows XP.
This is what baffles me to no end. The Lenovo web site has every driver you need to load Windows XP on the notebook.....**EXCEPT**..... the Sata HD Driver......**OR**...... the ability in BIOS to change to "compatability mode". Duh!!!..... whats wrong with this story. I have never seen such a weak BIOS as the one in the 3000 N100. If I had known this I probably would have gone to another brand. They should have advertised this notebook as...... "Non-Geek Compatible".
Not knowing exactly how you could forward the driver to me I did the following....... I created a new Web email location that you could use to send the driver as an email attachment. The address is....... [email protected] This address will exist just long enough to obtain the driver..... and then......"Hasta-La-Vista" baby......end of story......as I do not want to be bombarded with ads, trash, or perhaps a virus of some sort..... although.....I'm SURE we have GREAT PEOPLE on this message center.
I'm not familiar with the "NLITE" program you mentioned. Again....perhaps you could mention where I can get it and what I need to do to set the program up to run the driver.
Thanks again, Himleung.
Regards,
Train500

I want to downgrade to mavericks and cannot find os x download anywhere

I want to downgrade from Yosemite to Mavericks I did not do a time machine backup before I upgraded to Yosemite.
My mac book is so new I have no problem doing a clean install there are no personal files than can't be easily replaced.
I cannot find a copy of OS X Mavericks anywhere. Where can I get Mavericks

It's no longer available. You need to do the following:
Install OS X Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer.
