I just rolled back my Facebook app yesterday. 1 delete Facebook from phone. 2. Delete Facebook app from iTunes 3 Copy earlier version to clipboard and paste into Automatically add to iTunes folder 4 Connect phone to computer and sync apps. Be sure to put a checkmark by the Facebook app on your iTunes when syncing.
I did not even have to sign back into Facebook when I opened the earlier version on my phone. Oh, yeah. Be sure not to update the Facebook app in the app store until a newer version is offered.

I normally do a lot of my Facebook stuff on my Windows XP computer so I missed the problems. This morning I was in Facebook on my iPhone 5 and noticed with the current version that I could no longer select like or comment, etc. when reviewing another's post with VoiceOver on. That's a deal breaker for me for using Facebook on my iPhone. I keep backups of all versions of my apps in a Backup subfolder below Mobile Applications. I'm considering rolling back to Facebook 6.0.2 since I thought I could like something while using VO with that earlier version. Can someone who has ever rolled back to an earlier version please review the steps for me? I assume I first must uninstall the app from the phone. Next I guess I need to sync the phone to my computer using iTunes so the current Facebook version will be removed from the Mobile Applications folder. I'm a bit unclear what the next step should be. Would I simply use Windows Explorer to copy the Facebook 6.0.2.ipa file to the Mobile Applications folder then go into iTunes to install it? Or should I add the version I want to roll back to into the Automatically Add to iTunes subfolder? I want to get this right so it will install correctly. Finally, can anyone comment on whether uninstalling the current Facebook version and rolling back to a previous version will mess up any of my apps that share with Facebook? For example, I often share newspaper articles or Lire articles with Facebook and I don't want to mess up that capability. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
