Hi,

I have a 1st generation iPad running iOS 4.3.3. It previously ran iOS 5.1.1 but due to a very high number of crashes and general lag, I managed to downgrade it.

However, after downgrading, I was able to redownload roughly every app I had previously except Pages, Numbers and Keynote. For some reason, I would press install, it asks 'would you like an older version of this app' as usual, I press yes, the app seems to be downloading but then suddenly disappears.

I would appreciate it SO MUCH if some one has a copy of the iWork (most importantly Pages) apps in their iTunes app list/backups. I think Pages 1.0-1.4? will run on iOS 4.

I use my iPad often for schoolwork so I would greatly appreciate it if someone could help me out!

Thanks.

I'd love to help you, but there's no way to use/install IPA archives without knowing password of the account which purchased the apps. (Unless you do a crazy hard-drive serial number spoof and copy other people's authorization token/record over).

You may have better luck jailbreaking and installing them via alternative means.

I have jailbroken my device and searched for the older IPAs but I could not find any. Also AppSync for iOS 4 does not work. It would be really helpful if someone could lend me their iTunes account for 5 minutes so I can install the apps. But, since this is very unlikely to happen, unfortunately there is nothing else I can do :(

I'll PM you for more information.
