 * What do I do if the theme I purchased is only compatible with WP 3.1,3.2,3.3?
 * Is there a way to download and use one of these versions instead of the newest
   one?

 * I would contact the theme developer to see if they have a more updated version
   of the theme.

 * Josee’s suggestion is the best bet. Otherwise, you can have some parts of the
   theme updated to work with WP 3.7 depending on what is missing.

 * They say there is no plan to update the theme. I guess I am stuck having paid
   for a theme that was never going to work with a new version of Word Press.
 * Thanks.

 * Sorry to hear. 🙁
 * I can tell you a lot of the themes in the [WordPress repo](http://wordpress.org/themes/)
   support the latest version of WP. 🙂 A requirement is that they must be kept 
   up-to-date if you want a theme hosted in the repo.

 * Have you tried to use the Theme? You may find it still works, just lacking modern
   WordPress features.

 * When and where did you buy the theme from? If it is from themeforest, you can
   have it removed since it is not working with the new WP version. If it hasn’t
   been too long, try requesting a refund.
