Hi,
  I've just upgraded my component from 2.5 to 3.0
now the whole admin of my component has gone to crap.
All the special styling etc looks horrible.
How can I disable bootstrap for the whole fo the admin of my component?

Is the component something you created or someone else?

Thanks,
Alan

It's my component.
I just don't want to have to go through 40 pages and re do them all.

I just did a quick test, I renamed the template css file and my component now loads perfectly as it should and was with J2.5 but of course the J! page is broken.
I need to find how to turn it off for my component because it's overriding my components styling. It wasn't doing that in J2.5

Rob, I'm afraid you have a few choices.  1) Upgrade your component by converting it to Bootstrap or make it simply compatible by fixing the CSS conflicts.  2) Use a non-Bootstrapped admin template which I don't think even exists for J!3.0.  Since it doesn't exist, then upgrading your component to be 3.0 compatible is really the only option if you want to stick with 3.0. 3) Restore from a backup of a J2.5 site and stick with 2.5.

Thanks,
Alan

If you want your component to be compatible with J! 3.0, then you should support bootstrap as it is one of the key features of Joomla! 3.0.

Take a look at http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/, chances are good that you can reduce your own CSS styling by using bootstrap classes.
