Last night I did a manual backup of my iPhone 4S to my computer (Windows 7). I proceeded to restore my phone, and then restore from backup, only to be prompted with a message that asked me for a password. I do not remember ever giving a password, so I made several guesses. I tried the password for the admin account on my computer, email passwords, Apple ID password...but did not succeed. I would also like to note that "Encrypt iPhone backup" is NOT checked on iTunes, and I did not just un-check it.Â
Is there a way of recovering my data from my backup? I would really like my notes, messages, and contacts back.
i have forgot my password for encrypted iphone backup. i have upgraded the os but unable to restore from the backup which is having all my contacts and etc.. can i get the contacts by any means from the encrypted backup.
Returned home to restore my phone from previous backup made a day earlier and all of a sudden a password encryption was needed to access my last saved back up. Has anyone been able to negate this requirement affectively? And if so with a Mac? I am really really frustrated as I need my text messages out of my last backup as evidence in a custody battle with my ex wife.
I have backed up my iphone before updating the software. The backup is in my itunes but it asks for a password, i didnt put a password in and now cant access my data for my phone.
On my girlfriends iphone it is not possible to create a backup without a password. I cannot remark the tick. All backups I create have a password. The problem is, that we forgot the password, which was set once.
I don´t want to get back old backups! I want to create a new one on my computer (not in the cloud), but without a password. Is there a possibility?Â
Just bought a new I-phone and I'm trying to back up my old phone so I can transfer everything to my new phone. I must have created a password a while ago to unlock the I-phone back up, but now I can't remember it. Is there a way to reset it or obtain the password?
I need to restore the backup to my iphone 3gs but the password associated with my Apple ID. It says the password I entered is not correct. Should i be putting in my Apple ID password or would it be a different password to unlock the backup.
I inadvertently restored the factory profile settings. I have the backup file on my computer - but I can not remember the backup password. The MUST be a way I can access the backup file to restore my data.
