Problem Occuring With iOS 14 to iOS 13.5.1 Downgrade

If I downgraded from iOS 14 Beta to iOS 13.5.1 via. IPSW, how do I restore my backup to my version of how it was on iOS 14 Beta, since it won't let me back up since iOS 13.5.1 is a older software version.

You’d have to restore from an archived backup taken on 13.5.1 or earlier. You can’t restore a backup from a later version (I.e., 14) to an earlier version (I.e., 13.5.1).


If you don’t have that, you won’t be able to restore.
