Does anyone know whether iPadOS 14 can be backed up to iTunes on a Mac running El Capitan? For app compatibility reasons, my iMac is stuck at 10.11.6, so please don't suggest updating it. If not, no big deal, as 13.7 does everything I need.

Check to see if the Mac version of iTunes has an update. Updating the OS is probably not needed as long as you are running the most current version of iTunes.

Earlier today, Apple stopped signing iOS and iPadOS 13.7, which closed the downgrade window for those who don’t like the latest updates.

It’s annoying after updating when using places like Amazon or a news site if your halfway down a page and click on something when you swipe back it goes to top of page and you have to scroll right down again just to get where you were.

It might be a little less frustrating to press-hold on the link and choose Open in Background from the context menu. But not much.

Hi Johanna - just took a look on my iPhone XR and no updates appeared, so looking on Apple HERE, the iOS 14.2.1 seems to be for the newest iPhone 12s only, as shown below. Dave
