Hi Pablo, Apparently downgrading can be done in some very special situations, but you would have to have planned ahead to do so and backed up something called the SSH Log (I am not quite sure if I got that name exactly right). Even then I think downgrading is extremely difficult and Apple has

Hello Hank, Just out of curiocity, why don't you use the Audible app for your Audible books? It's free and works very well and you can download any of the books from your Audible library directly to your phone and listen to them. Audible supports Airplay and you can use the headset controls for

yes. When you are creating the reminer, if you double tap the super reminder button, you will get many more options, including the ability to set the reminder on certain days. I set this up to remind me to take my sleep meds at 8:25pm Sunday through Thursday, and it works great. The reminder stays

I second this; it's possible but it's not something that you just decide to do - it requires some steps to be taken which are now inpossible to complete. What problems are you having? Have you tried doing a clean restore to 6 and seeing if they are still present? Cheers, Ben. On 10/21/12,

Sieghard. The story is this. I bought the wifi thermostate, and I installed it by my self, so it is working fine, even though not every thing is happiness. When I try to setup the wifi connection between my wifi routher and my thermostate, is a problem. IOs 6 is having problems to connect with

Hi Allen, No, you can only access the files, not copy them. From what I read it sounds as if this app is not all that different from Dropbox or Windows Skydrive. I use Skydrive and the app is accessible and I also can access anything I put in the Skydrive folder with the added advantage

Hi. Sometimes the two finger double tap doesn't work. I've had to go in the app and manually press the pause button. Unfortunately there's no stop button. I find the app fairly accessible once you get the hang of it, but with that being said, I'm thinking of cancelling the internet

Hi Pablo, First of all, how do you know that it would work under iOS 5? I have 3 WiFi thermostats and I use iOS 6 and it works perfectly fine. Now, here is what I think maybe is your problem and this is something that nothing to do with Apple and everything with your WiFi router or access point.

You can upload and download via the app. There is an actions button that you use on any file and in there you are given several options, such as downloading the file to your phone so you can listen to it later, you can share a file or a folder with someone via email and there are other things

I don’t keep any music files or photos or anything like that on my iPhone or iPod to test that out. But I don’t see how you could upload items from your phone via the app. You can access your hard drive and then download items to your phone, but I don’t think you can do what you were asking
