iOS and iPadOS
Hi. Apple is still signing 6.1.3 for all devices except iPhone 5 and 6.1.4 for iPhone 5. If the screen sensitivity bug or any other bugs in iOS 7 is too much for you to deal with, you can downgrade but do it quick because I do not know when apple will quit signing 6.1.3 and 6.1.4. I only know how to do this on windows, so hopefully mac users know what the mac equivalent to the windows commands are or maybe someone who knows both systems can give the mac commands. Anyhow, go to ipswdownloader.com and download iOS 6.1.3 for anything but an iPhone 5 or 6.1.4 for an iPhone 5. Please note that iPhones, iPads and iPods all have a different iOS even if they are all called 6.1.3 so make sure it is the iOS for your device. Then download it and remember what folder you downloaded it in. Then backup your device to iCloud or iTunes. Then open iTunes and click the button that says iPhone, iPad or iPod, depending on which device you have. Then tab to restore and hold down shift and while holding shift press enter then let both keys go. Then you can brows to the place where you downloaded iOS 6.1.3 or 6.1.4 earlier. When you find the file just press enter on it and your device will begin restoring and you will get the normal prompts. When it is all done you should be downgraded. Then restore your device from the iCloud or iTunes backup you made before you downgraded so you get all your apps and contacts and music and everything else back. Note that to restore from a backup and to restore iOS are 2 different things. Good luck. I wanted to take time to write more and be more detailed, but I wanted more to get this out before apple quits signing 6.1.3 and 6.1.4. So if you need more help please email jessicabrown531@gmail.com or use my contact form on this site and I will try to help more. Now if they would just sign 6.1.2 so I could jailbreak my iPhone 4s and iPod 5 I would be the happiest person in the world!
