Een iOS-back-up herstellen naar een eerdere versie van iOS
Als u merkt dat u een back-up van een apparaat met een nieuwere versie van iOS dan het doelapparaat moet herstellen, moet u zich ervan bewust zijn dat het herstellen van een nieuwere back-up naar een gedegradeerd iOS-apparaat niet mogelijk is zonder een paar aanpassingen. Als u zonder probeert, ziet u dit bericht:
iTunes kon de iPhone "Renate's iPhone" niet herstellen omdat de back-up corrupt was of niet compatibel met de iPhone die wordt hersteld.
Welke opties heb je dan? Nou, er zijn er twee:
Patch uw back-up om deze compatibel te maken met de eerdere iOS, of
Haal de gegevens die u nodig hebt uit uw iTunes- of iCloud-back-up en importeer deze
Hieronder beschrijven we hoe de eerste techniek en onze gids voor back-upherstel de tweede techniek behandelt.
Hoe een iOS-back-upversie te downgraden
Een back-up patchen voor een iOS-downgrade is vrij eenvoudig, hoewel het niet mogelijk is om tussen elke versie te schakelen. We hebben de versiedowngrades die we hebben getest en waarvan we weten dat ze hieronder werken, gemarkeerd.
Stap 1. Maak een kopie van uw iOS-back-up voordat u deze wijzigt.
Stap 2. Open het bestand Info.plist in de hoofdmap van uw back-up.
U kunt dit bestand openen met elke eenvoudige teksteditor.
Stap 3. Zoek naar Product Version en u vindt een gedeelte dat eruitziet als de onderstaande tekst.
<key>Product Type</key> <string>iPhone10,6</string> <key>Product Version</key> <string>12.3.2</string> <key>Serial Number</key> <string>C8QH6T96DPNG</string>
Stap 4. Wijzig de waarde van de Product Version en sla het bestand op.
Bijvoorbeeld van 12.1.3 tot 12.1 of 12.0 en sla het bestand op.
Van welke back-upversies kan ik downgraden?
Het kan zijn dat andere versie-downgrades werken, maar dit zijn degenen die we hebben getest en bevestigd hebben bevestigd. Deze techniek vertrouwt erop dat er tussen sommige versies weinig verschil is van het onderliggende opslagformaat. Als je succes hebt met andere versies, laat het onze lezers dan weten in de reacties hieronder.

As for Oct 22 It works for iOS 17.03 > 17.0.2 on a iPhone XS Max however you need to change the Product Version value as well on the Manifest.plist file located in the root folder of your backup.

door Gil Skink
It worked to change IOS 12.5.5 to 12.2, though there was a slight glitch. After the backup was completed from my 5s with the 12.5.5 to my erased 6s with the 12.2, iTunes SAID it could not sync to the new phone. But when I checked the 6s phone it was fine! Everything's there, far as I can tell. Great article, really helpful! Awesome solution, thanks!

Thanks!! Worked for 14.4.1 on SE to 12.5.1 on 6
door Lisa
It was a backup from an iPhone SE 14.4.1 to an iPhone 5s 12.5.1
Thank you so much for this. I'd like to say it worked like a charm, but it did not at first :D
After several tries, the very thoughtful message from itunes that it did not work because it does not work and a little mental breakdown I did get it done!
Maybe helpful for some and quite logical for everyone else:
It worked nearly perfectly after I set back the 5s to factory settings and put in the SIM card before trying to do the backup again. And voila it worked.
Some stuff is missing but I'll figure that out! Thank you so much for this very helpful article! I hope Karma is good to you in return!!!
door Nicholas Gooding
The backup worked from an iPhone SE first generation (iOs 13.5.1) to an old iPhone 6 (iOs 12.5.1). The only issue was with three newer apps that are not supported with the previous iOs and were not installed.

Worked on with iphone SE (first gen) 14.2 --> iphone SE (first gen) 13.6, except for sms/imessages. Those were subsequently recovered by turning on icloud on both devices, turning sync messages to on, and giving the devices time to sync/download the messages (this takes several hours).
Thank you!!

I'm trying to restore my backup from iphone 7plus(iOS 13.3.1) to iPhone 8(iOS 13.4.1). I was getting the error message while progressing the restoring process. The message is 'iTunes could not restore the iPhone "iPhone" because the backup was corrupt.'
I changed the Product Version in the Info.plist file in the root folder to 13.4.1 from 13.3.1. But still the same error popping up!
Please help me to get my backup :(
antwoord door: Reincubate Support
Hi Sreekanth. Changing the version like this won't help if the backup is corrupt. We've got a guide for fixing corrupt backups here. If you get stuck, drop us a note!
