@itsthedman10 I deleted all my apple lines and went into iTunes tried downgrading the first time i thought it worked but it said error 3014 or something like that then I went into tiny umbrella and started the TSS server said error 20 please help or pm me please!!

[LilleNoe]

It says Access denied. I can't open it with notepad or anything. Alway access denied... Please respond on this onw.. :/

[Smokesick12]

@LilleNoe For Windows 7 Firstly, try running it as an administrator. It may be that simple, but tf it doesn't get fixed, then change the compatibility of the file. Experiment with your options, but start off with Windows Service Pack 3. Lastly, make sure your anti-virus program isn't blocking your access to the file. If you can't stop it for a moment, shut it off completely, but beware that you are an open target to the viruses via the web, so be careful. That's all I can say, so good luck!

I went into my host files and there are 2 things written in there from apple should those be in there if not how do i get rid of them because i am having trouble downgrading .

[19rizzo80]

@dhags1960 the 2 gs lines from apple can be removed by right clicking notepad select run as admin >click open file> click on computers> local disk > windows > system32 > etc > change open type files from txt files to all files >then click hosts > now you should be able to edit the two lines of gs apple com and I hoped that helped...Aloha
