futurerestore (Saved Blobs / Downgrade)

futurerestore allows restoring to any firmware when you have saved APTickets (blobs) from a tool like TSSSaver or shsh.host.

  1. Download futurerestore from github.com/futurerestore/futurerestore.
  2. Ensure you have a saved .shsh2 blob for macOS 13.2 (22D49) on your iMac 24-inch (M1, Two Ports, 2021).
  3. Put your device into DFU mode and run:
futurerestore -t your_blob.shsh2 --latest-sep --latest-baseband UniversalMac_13.2_22D49_Restore.ipsw
Warning: Using --latest-sep requires the latest SEP to be compatible with macOS 13.2. Always verify compatibility before restoring to avoid a bricked device.

Entering DFU Mode

DFU (Device Firmware Update) mode is required for most manual restores. The button combination varies by device:

Connect device to computer, then follow the on-screen instructions in iTunes/Finder to enter DFU mode.

💡 Tip: In DFU mode the screen stays completely black. If you see the Apple logo or a "Connect to iTunes" screen, you entered Recovery mode instead — try again.
