Removal of iOS5

[Globalpad]

Does anybody know if it is possible to remove iOS 5 from an iPad 2 and revert to previous iOS 4. Reason 2 mainly used apps no longer work I.e Stanza and Print and Share.

Can this be done via iTunes 10.5 ?

Thanks for any input

According to everything I've seen so far, there is no way to downgrade from 5.0. You're stuck with it.

Most apps are in process of being updated to work with 5.0, give it some time.

I had mine downgraded with my 4.3.3 blobs which was saved.

That's not quite right robertlc. Have a look here - http://www.ipadforums.net/ipad-os/49759-revert-ios5.html#post344191

It is only valid IF YOU HURRY. And heed the warning I give in the post...

I know that now, but at the time I answered that was the best info I had from another moderator.

Thanks guys for the feedback. In fact did try last night via iTunes picking an old backup file pre iOS 5 - 9 hours later no change! Will check out the link but likely have to accept the inability to print directly. On the web it was suggested the Apple have blocked apps that access the action button print function, if that's true then one has to use some convoluted way of printing or it's a new printer (no blo..y way, I have a Photosmart wireless but a 309 not 310 !).

Yes will wait to see if updates arrive or some guru can circumvent Apple iOS. Not pleased !

Many thanks once again for the input.

Ps No Stanza (Amazon !!) disaster !
