How to restore iPhone data after downgrading OS?
Okay so I was annoyed with iOS 8, so I backed up my iPhone and downgraded back to iOS 7.1.2. Now I did that, all of my data on my iPhone was erased. I did back up to iTunes before the downgrade so it's not gone for good. Except the data won't restore onto my iPhone, it only gives my other devices as options. What do I do now? I just want my data, OS doesn't matter at this point.
You may refer to this guide, it provides 3 ways to recover iPhone data like videos, songs, photos, contacts, notes, email, message, apps and documents. Hope it helps you.

- Lost all downloaded apps from iPhone downgrading from iOS 7 Beta? Before I upgraded, I manually backed up my iPhone on my mac. I needed to downgrade after upgrading, so I opt+clicked restore iPhone and selected the correct firmware, 6.1.4 (for my iPhone 5). I loaded up the iPhone and restored from my previous backup. When I loaded up my phone, there were no apps on it that didn't come with the device! Does anyone know what went wrong or how to get all of the apps and their previous data back? It would help me beyond belief!
- Is it possible to Lose iCloud Activation lock by Downgrading to iOS 6 on iPhone 4? I have a iCloud locked iPhone 4 which was factory unlocked. I hacktivated it using win SCP and now the sim won't work. So i thought why not downgrade to a version when Activation Lock wasn't even created. That way i will have a fully working iPhone on iOS 6 right? Is that possible?

- If you disabled FindMyiPhone to restore your device, will the app be enabled again after the restore? A few weeks ago I upgraded to the iPhone SE and I restored the data from my iPhone 4s onto it. (I had to disable FindMyiPhone in the process). Little did I know that it would be lost/stolen 2 weeks later. Really need to know if FindMyiPhone would be enabled because I want to know if I still have any hope at all finding it. Thanks. I tried the app already… Says it's offline. Been waiting since.
