    I just reverted to WP8 so I can get the Cyan update. Now I can't seem to get back the apps I had before reverting.

    I did the Settings>BackUp before I reverted to WP8. Please can anyone tell me how to get my apps back?

    8.1 backups are not backward compatible with 8.0. Once you upgrade back to 8.1 you'll be able to restore.

    I've upgraded to 8.1 but I haven't gotten the option to restore. Is there a way I can manually do this?

    The restore prompt only appears on first setup, such as after a hard reset, so you'll have to perform a hard reset.
