[FAQ] Про откат прошивки на Apple TV

Если вы хотите увидеть на нашем сайте ответы на интересующие вас вопросы обо всём, что связано с техникой Apple, операционной системой Mac OS X (и её запуском на PC), пишите нам через форму обратной связи.

К нам поступил следующий вопрос:

При подключении Apple TV к компьютеру по microUSB-кабелю приставка переходит в специальный режим восстановления. Из этого режима вы можете перешиться на нынешнюю версию прошивки либо на более новую, но не можете откатиться на старые версии прошивки. Чтобы у вас была возможность отката, требуется ввести Apple TV в режим DFU (Device Firmware Update):

• подключите приставку к компьютеру только microUSB-кабелем
• подождите несколько секунд, затем на пульте Remote зажмите Menu и кнопку «вниз» на 6-7 секунд. Так вы инициируете принудительную перезагрузку гаджета
• после того, как диод на приставке погаснет и загорится снова, зажмите Menu и Play на 8-9 секунд, пока диод не начнёт мигать с удвоенной частотой
• дождитесь, когда iTunes обнаружит приставку и восстанавливайтесь на нужную прошивку

Проверить режим, в котором работает Apple TV, можно в свойствах системы (Яблочко-Об этом Mac-Подробнее-Отчёт о системе-USB). Нажав на строку с Apple TV, вы должны увидеть упоминание о DFU-режиме.

This guide will walk you through how to restore a second, third, or fourth generation Apple TV. The now obsolete first generation Apple TV and the Apple TV 4K cannot be restored using this method.

The process comes in handy for upgrading and downgrading to signed firmwares, but also for restoring the device if it has problems or needs a fresh start.

Requirements

• An Apple TV.
• A Micro-USB or USB-C cable, depending on the generation of your Apple TV.
• A computer with iTunes installed on it.
• An IPSW firmware file to install to your Apple TV. The firmware must be for the Apple TV, and for the correct generation of the device. It must also be a signed firmware.

Instruction to restore an Apple TV

1) Visit our downloads page to grab the IPSW file for the firmware you want.

2) Disconnect all the wires from your Apple TV. Then connect your Apple TV to your computer via Micro-USB or USB-C.

3) Connect the power cable to your Apple TV.

4) Launch iTunes and wait for the device to appear on the connected devices page. As you can see, mine began the process on tvOS 9.0.

If iTunes doesn’t recognize your Apple TV, you might have to put it in recovery mode.

5) Locate the Restore Apple TV… button.

6a) If you are on Windows hold down the shift key, and then click the Restore Apple TV… button.

6b) If you are on Mac hold down the option/alt key, and then click the Restore Apple TV… button.

11) Check your tvOS version in iTunes to ensure that it has restored to the correct firmware. As you can see, mine is now on tvOS 10.1.

And there you have it! This method can clear the dust and cobwebs from an Apple TV which has been running for a while. It can also upgrade or downgrade it to a higher/lower signed firmware if you want to move between them.

Home > Apple TV > How to Downgrade Apple TV with/without iTunes in 2021

February 11, 2019 (Updated: June 15, 2021)

Usually, Apple Users get excited with the news of an upgrade to the operating system on their devices. Thus, once the news of an available upgrade hits, nearly every Apple user tries to lay their hands on it. This was the case when Apple released its tvOS 13 beta Operating System to the public. Apple gave many of its daring consumers the opportunity to participate in testing the software before going ahead with a full launch later in the year.

Well, of course, the much-expected upgrade may not be all that the users expected. It could be filled with bugs and whatnot, and the next thing would be for the user to start looking for ways to downgrade. For users who got into this situation, downgrading to an older operating system is the only way they can continue to enjoy a stable TV experience without the stress of dealing with the bugs in an update.

Thankfully, there are ways to downgrade to tvOS 12 from the tvOS 13 beta. You either own an Apple TV 4 or an Apple TV 4K. The downgrade process for each of them is slightly different, but we will explore them regardless.

1. Downgrade Apple TV Without iTunes (Recommended)

The good news is that there is another option to downgrade Apple TV from tvOS 13 beta to tvOS 12 or older versions. You can use a third-party software iMyFone Fixppo to do this with 100% success rate. Check out the features of this software.

• As one of the best alternative to iTunes, Fixppo can do much more that iTunes can’t do.
• It has the option to downgrade your Apple TV without data loss.
• You can fix different problems going on with your Apple TV using this method, such as Apple TV black screen, won’t turn on, etc.
• The developer of this program — iMyFone is highly recommended by Payetteforward, Macworld, Makeuseof, etc.
• Fix all iPhone and iPad issues with Fixppo without resetting the iOS system.
• You can be guaranteed that nothing will go wrong with your device after using this software.

Steps to downgrade Apple TV using iMyFone Fixppo:

Step 1. Download the iMyFone Fixxpo software to your computer and launch it. Select «Standard Mode.»

Step 2. Connect your computer to your Apple TV through a USB cable follow the prompts on the screen to take your devices into DFU mode.

Step 3. The program will download the latest version of the tvOS you want to downgrade to. Allow it to download.

Step 4. After downloading the firmware, click on «start to fix» and then the iMyFone Fixppo iOS System Recovery will begin to install older tvOS version. This process takes around 10 minutes. After the repair process is complete, your Apple TV will restart, and then you can begin to use it normally.

After your Apple TV has restarted, it would have downgraded from tvOS 13/13 beta to tvOS 12 or older versions. With the iMyFone Fixppo Sofware, the data on your Apple TV will also be protected from loss. Although, this does not mean that you should not back up your device on iTunes before installing a beta OS or downgrading your Apple TV. But ideally, the iMyFone Fixppo is designed to fix iOS devices without losing data.

3. Downgrade Apple TV 4K from the tvOS Beta by Resetting it
