Please be more specific on how it is possible to use the previous tiles. I have looked at every option under player preferences and can not find anything that even appears to permit me to change the tileset.
Well, we posted in multiple places about this and even put a sticky post in the Carcassonne forum with screenshot and all :)

Personally, I dislike the new expansion. Maybe I'm a purist, but I liked a dependable number of pieces and the strategy involved. The new expansion seems to make luck more of a factor. It's harder to predict what tiles are left. I'm sure some people like it. Count me out. I'm now less inclined to play at all.

I got rid of the fairies and that rubbish, but 119 tiles takes forever.

I tried to turn it off as an option, but ended up with playing all the tiles.

How exactly are you doing this? I see no way to do this. Unless I'm misunderstanding you.

On another player's turn you can select your tile and place it (as you would normally - click on the grey background square) to experiment.
