No, first of all, I tried to be generic and not point at you and was not. Lots and lots of posts over the last week complaining and complaining. Not just you. Secondly, no, nothing wrong with asking to download if possible and did not mean to imply you were wrong to ask. However, I don't know how long you have been on our list. You may be a new member or deleted the posts in which case I apologize, but every time there is a new upgrade, the same question is asked. It was on list that I learned you cannot downgrade, although sometimes for a day or so you can.
As for being holier than thou? Um, not intended and sorry if it sounded that way. I simply was commenting on human nature! Take care and have a great day. I did not mean to ruin it. VERY sorry if I did.

You said that unless someone is a new IOS user that they would know that one cannot downgrade. Why is that? I have been a IOS user for 2 years and 2 months. I did not know that downgrading is impossible until now because it has not come up until now. I have gone through three major IOS upgrades and several minor ones. I have never before encountered problems that were sufficient to make me want to go to the trouble of downgrading. This being the case, how would I know that it is impossible? I assure you that I am not one to think that technology must be perfect. I started using computers in the 1980s, when they were much more limited than they are now. Like many of us, I carried around floppy disks and tapes and records and all of the equipment necessary to use them. I am very thankful that the functions of all of those devices can now be completely replaced by my laptop and iPhone, not to mention the fact that the devices that I have now have capabilities that would have seemed like science fiction back then. I am truly amazed and thankful at all of the technological resources that I have at my disposal. I am not a cancer survivor. However, I have lived through some pretty bad personal tragedies, which I will not describe here. Suffice it to say that I realize that I am very blessed that the worst problem that I have at the moment is dealing with some IOS7 bugs. Now, having said all of that, is there anything wrong with me wanting to downgrade to IOS6, if I can find a relatively easy way to do so? I don’t think that there is. If you don’t want to, that’s fine. However, I think that a sermon, which came across to me as being a bit holier than thou, is going a bit overboard. By the way, I am communicating with Apple about the problems. I too am sure that they will fix it, eventually. I don’t think it’s a huge deal anyway. In fact, I said that in a post yesterday. However, If I and maybe some others would like to downgrade for a few months, until they do fix it, that isn’t a crime or a character issue.
