Guys, I'm at the end of my tether.

My iPhone 4 is virtually a brick after having upgraded to iOS 7. I'm desperate to see it back at 6.1.3, but don't have a Windows PC at my disposal.

So - can iFaith run on Parallels? I'm running a build of Windows 8.1, and when I start up the iFaith .exe package, it tells me 'the network name cannot be found'. It gives me the option to click 'continue', but nothing happens when I do.

Help?!

It should work on a VM.

iFaith needs an internet connection to check for blobs with Cydia.
Do you have that configured with Parallels?

Not sure how to do that...could you explain? All I've done is download Parallels, install Windows 8.1 and attempt to open the iFaith .exe file - with no success.
 
You need to connect to internet in Parallels.
Check to top windows for options on network connection.
