Pablo, iOS8.1 works better than I'd thought, if judging by the complaints I'd heard reported on this list about it. As for Apple being 'the only ones who push' etc., well, i can think of one big company in the blindness computer industry who do similar to them, <LOL>.

I had a very bad experience when the release of IOs7 came out, and I guess that you remember those times. Now, again. I don’t know why I feel that apple is damaging the private property when they decrease the accessibility with each IOs release, and the blind users mandatory has to sufrir those bugs, by months. I know that are people who is going to say that there is android, yes, it is true, and android is pretty good, but the accessibility is a little bit behind apple. But if we see the prices of android and apple, maybe the price is going to be more important that an accessibility more complex. According with my view, apple is pushing everybody to use whatever release they have, no matter bugs, no matter how bad is the accessibility, no matter anything. Oh, please do not respond me that the accessibility improve when we report bugs to apple. I don’t work for apple, sorry, it is not my job. Their job is create IOs with a better quality. Moreover, are beta testers that report those bugs to apple, and apple didn’t care about it. Now here we are. IOs 8.1, and many bugs irritating our life. Yes I know that every release brings bugs. But apple is the only one who push every body to sufrir their bugs. Apple is the only one who push their customers to detect their bugs, apple is the only company on the world that is treating their customers on this way. No Microsoft, no Compuware, no adobe, no corel, no any other company. As I said. My iPhone 5s, is the last apple device that I will get.

I thought you had upgraded to iOS 8 after the 8.1 update came out?

Why If I am running IOs 7.1.2, I want to reinstall IOs 7.1.2 again? Well, it is because at the last days, I am looking some problems with my phone. For example, my iPhone is not telling me who is calling, and it is maybe around 3 weeks ago. Now, in the last 4 days, VO is crashing, no reason why. More over, I am noticing some little problems using the phone, like the same problems that a reinstallation fix. But, I understand that because apple wants, I can not reinstall the same IOs 7.1.2 on my phone, when I didn’t install IOs 8? It is true?

Just having the iOS 7.1.2 software file on your computer doesn’t do anything, if you want to manually restore from a downloaded IPSW file you have to use the Shift+Enter command on the Restore button. This will open a standard Windows Open File dialogue, here you would now browse to the folder where your IPSW file is located and you would select it. But as I said, this can only be done successfully if whichever IPSW file you have is still valid/signed by Apple. If you don’t mind me asking, if you had iOS 7.1.2 on your 5S, why did you want to restore to the same software? Your only option now is to do a restore which means that the latest iOS version will be downloaded and your phone will be restored to iOS 8.1.

I downloaded the IOs 7.1.2, and I followed the steps about how rename the file downloaded, and all these steps. Maybe I am wrong, but I thought that if I have the IOs7.1.2 file stored in my computer, and my iPhone is running IOs 7.1.2, I was able to reinstall IOs7.1.2 again. But iTunes is saying that an unknown error is happening and the restore can not be done. Now I tried to do in 2 different computers, one running the last iTunes version, and the other running the previous version of iTunes, I guess 11.3.1.2 But the same error. I was wrong thinking that If I am using IOs 7.1.2 in my iPhone 5s, and if I have the IOs 7.1.2 file in my computer I was able to reinstall this IOs in my iPhone again? If I didn’t update my iPhone, but I want to reinstall the current IOs that I have in my iPhone, and I have the IOs file of my current version stored in my computer, is no way to reinstall the IOs again?
