Como restaurar um backup do iOS para uma versão anterior do iOS
Se você precisar restaurar um backup de um dispositivo com uma versão mais recente do iOS do que o dispositivo de destino, precisará estar ciente de que a restauração de um backup mais recente para um dispositivo iOS com downgrade não é possível sem alguns ajustes. Se você tentar sem, verá esta mensagem:
O iTunes não conseguiu restaurar o iPhone "Renate's iPhone" porque o backup estava corrompido ou não era compatível com o iPhone que está sendo restaurado.
Quais são suas opções, então? Bem, tem dois:
Corrigir o backup para torná-lo compatível com o iOS anterior ou
Puxe os dados que você precisa do seu backup do iTunes ou do iCloud e importe-o
Descrevemos como a primeira técnica abaixo, e nosso guia sobre recuperação de backup cobre a segunda técnica.
Como corrigir o downgrade de uma versão de backup do iOS
A correção de um backup para um downgrade do iOS é bastante simples, embora não seja possível alternar entre qualquer versão. Destacamos as atualizações de versão que testamos e sabemos que estão funcionando abaixo.
Passo 1. Faça uma cópia do seu backup do iOS antes de modificá-lo.
Passo 2. Abra o arquivo Info.plist na pasta raiz do seu backup.
Você pode abrir este arquivo com qualquer editor de texto simples.
Etapa 3. Pesquise a Product Version e você encontrará uma seção semelhante ao texto abaixo.
<key>Product Type</key> <string>iPhone10,6</string> <key>Product Version</key> <string>12.3.2</string> <key>Serial Number</key> <string>C8QH6T96DPNG</string>
Passo 4. Altere o valor da Product Version do Product Version e salve o arquivo.
Por exemplo, de 12.1.3 a 12.1 ou 12.0 e salve o arquivo.
De quais versões de backup é possível fazer o downgrade?
Pode ser que outras versões de downgrades funcionem, mas essas são as que testamos e confirmamos que estão funcionando. Essa técnica baseia-se na pouca diferença do formato de armazenamento subjacente entre algumas versões. Se você tiver sucesso com outras versões, informe nossos leitores nos comentários abaixo.

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.

de 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
de 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!!!

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!!

Don't know how I stumbled on to this page, but grateful beyond words, that I did. Used option #1 Worked like a champ. iphone 5se destroyed. Picked up a 5s for next to nothing. OS on the 5se was 13.5 The 5s only goes up to 12.4.7 I Tunes or I Cloud wouldn't restore the backup. Called Apple support, and they didn't have a clue. Thanks again. Really worked.

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 :(

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!
