what's going on guys I'm märklin sang it from technobuffalo and today we'll be giving you guys a quick tutorial on how to downgrade your iOS device from the latest iOS 8 beta down to iOS 7 we've been testing out iOS 8 beta 4 since it came out last week and we actually did a short video on some of the new features from the latest beta so you can check that out in the link down below of course with any beta software you can always expect bugs and other issues in the time i've been using iOS 8 beta for it's been particularly bad for me I've been getting random reboots freezes slowness and other issues and I can see the other users are getting the same thing but luckily it's pretty easy to downgrade so the first thing you have to do is make sure you backup all your data which you can do either through iCloud or on your computer via iTunes take note though you can't restore any of your data coming from iOS 8 down iOS 7 if you did upgrade from iOS 7 all your previous backup sprite or iOS 8 should be restored just fine and the second thing you'll need to do is disable Find My iPhone on your iOS device if you have it enabled so go ahead and disable that right now so once you disable Find My iPhone the next thing you have to do is download the right ipsw firmware in this case we have an iphone 5s from AT&T and will leave a link down below this video where you can find all the necessary download links so after you downloaded file connect your iPhone your computer and once you see that your iphones connected click on it and hold alt option if you're on a Mac or the shift key if you're using Windows then click check for an update when the new window pops up look for the ipsw file that you just downloaded and double-click the file so once it starts to downgrade don't unplug your device let it sit there and let your device do its thing your iOS device will eventually turn off and on again at one point and you need to unlock your device just to set it up you can either set it up as a new iphone if you'd like and just input your iCloud account to get all your contacts back or if you have any previous backups on iTunes and just restore it from there after that your device should be as it was before you install the beta and hopefully bug free hope you guys find this quick little tutorial helpful if you guys have any questions you can always leave a comment down below this video or send it over on Twitter and as always on mark than sagging for TechnoBuffalo I'll see you guys in the next video hey thanks for watching this video and if you guys would like to see more please hit that subscribe button down there
