    Hi,

    Sorry, but it's not possible to fix it, if the theme you switched don't have footer sidebar all the widgets from this area comes to the inactive tab, the simplest way to update the theme without loosing anything is to make duplicate of the gem theme, rename the theme in the style.css:

    /*
    Theme Name: TheGem
    Description: Multi-Purpose Wordpress Theme
    Author: Codex Themes.
    Theme URI: http://codex-themes.com/thegem/
    Version: 3.2.1
    Tags: one-column, two-columns, left-sidebar, right-sidebar, custom-background, custom-colors, custom-header, custom-menu, featured-images, flexible-header, full-width-template, theme-options, translation-ready
    License: GNU General Public License
    License URI: license.txt
    Text Domain: thegem
    */

    to 

    Theme Name: TheGem-Updatng

    so if you need to update the theme just switch to this theme and remove old one.
