IPhone 5s :: Does A Backup Restore Old Passwords

Jun 2, 2014

I'm having some problems with my iPhone. I changed the password on it a while back and completely cannot remember what it is. I have iPhone 5S and haven't really used the password to unlock the phone since (I use the Touch ID). I couldn't get into my phone so I had to restore it. I remotely deleted it using find my iPhone because I was also having windows problems recognizing my phone. With a fresh install, I set up as a new phone and restored using an iCloud backup. I'm sure that during this process it asked me to set a new Touch ID as well as a new passcode, which I set to one that I use more frequently. I've used it for a bit now, and came to wanting to add my other fingerprints - it then asked me for my iPhone password. I entered what I thought it should be 4 times and then though hang on, has it changed my iPhone password? I then locked the device and entered the password it should have been set to a 5th time. That then activated the 'iPhone deactivated' screen, which has now disabled my Touch ID! I'm now locked out AGAIN, I'm assuming because the iCloud backup has restored a password that I can't remember, does this sound right?Â

how long erasing the phone, restoring, entering passcodes and wifi codes, restarting the whole icloud restore, and all the other bits of tinkering that you have to do, re-syncing 3000 tracks, letting photos redownload. I don't want to waste time doing this a third time...can you confirm/clarify whether it does pull over the previous passcode?Â

BB Curve :: Restore Passwords After A Security Wipe?

May 9, 2011

My company had a planned upgrade of our system. I had to wipe my phone and reactivate as a result. Before I did I downloaded Blackberry desktop and backed up my phone. When I went to restore there were two options a complete restore that would put everything back to how it was and a custom restore. I think I can't choose the complete restore since that would remove the company's intended changes changes. If I choose custom restore the password file is grayed out. A note at the bottom tells me the grayed out items are read only data types and cannot be restored. Does anyone know how to restore my data.

IPhone :: Restore From Backup Doesn't Restore Apps

May 3, 2012

I finally updated my iPhone to 5.1. I waited so long because of the fiasco updating my iPod Touch when 5.0 first came out. I thought it worked, I was pleased Apple worked out the bugs. Lo and behold, all of my apps and folders disappeared before my eyes. No problem I thought, I did a back up. Restore from back up. Fifteen minutes later, it looks exactly the same. Isn't a backup supposed to be of everything on the system so that if something goes wrong, you just revert back to the back up and either try again or wait for the process to be fixed? Seriously, get your stuff together.

IPhone :: Updated To 5.1.5. And Restore My Backup, But Backup Was Not Available?

Jun 27, 2012

I just updated to iOS 5.1.1 on my 3GS phone, previously using 5.0, while plugged into the computer and iTunes 10.6.3. I had the phone set to backup to iCloud, and ran a sync operation before updating.Does that not also create a backup?When the restore process began, it asked if I wanted to set up as a new phone or restore from backup. However the list of available backups did not have anything from today.The last one listed was from October 2011.So I cancelled that operation, went through the new phone setup and then it asked if I wanted to restore from iCloud. So I chose the most recent iCloud backup which was from around 6 AM this morning. Now it is in the process of downloading all my apps, pics, and perhaps music as well. I don't know but it's going to take HOURS to finish this.

Anyway I opened some apps that have already downloaded, and some app data appears to be intact. But other apps have nothing after October 2011. And I'm talking apps that have tracked my fitness and workout progress over the past 6 months, bike rides in the past few months, car fuel fillup and maintenance history since October, I'm talking LOTS of data that appears to be gone.What did I do wrong here? Did I not do what I should have done regarding backups? What is the point of backing up to iCloud if it's not going to back up all my app data?

I have been using my iPhone 4 as an iPod for a while because I'm waiting for AT&T to unlock it.

Xperia X10 Mini/pro :: Backup And Restore Did Not Restore Contacts Completely

Oct 28, 2010

I had faced this issue when i last updated my phone when the 2.1 had come out.. I installed the latest Backup and Restore application as recomended by the SE update site.. Then backed up my files onto an already existing backup (which i think has corrupted the backup), hence overwriting the file.. After that i upgraded to 2.1 and restored my files, which failed because the contacts were not successfully imported (even though the Backup and Restore app said that the import was succesful.)

i was asked to repair the firmware using PC companion and hence want to backup succesfully without any problems. I cant risk loosing my contacts again. And i want to know from others in this forum if they have faced this issue on normal backup (not overwritten on an existing backup). [URL]

IPhone :: Consider Trying JB / Now Restore From Backup

Jan 12, 2010

I'm considering trying a JB on my phone, but I do not want to deal with plugging it in just to restart. To some people it's not a big deal, but my personal preference is to not have to deal with it. I just want to make sure I have the process correct:

1. Perform a backup of my iPhone in iTunes.
2. D/L, install, run Blackra1n
3. Phone will be JB'd, possibly untethered, which would be awesome.
4. If it ends up being a tethered JB, and I wish to undo everything, I can just restore from that backup in iTunes.

IPhone :: Why Cannot Restore New 3G From Old / Last Backup

Mar 17, 2012

I broke my old iPhone 3G (16GB) so today I went to the Apple store, and got a new one for free by setting up an AT&T account (this free iPhone 3G is 8GB). I got home, plugged it in my laptop, and wanted to transfer my stuff from my old phone over to my new one so I clicked restore from last backup. When I did so, I got this error message: iTunes could not restore the iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone that is being restored. I need to restore from my last backup but apparently it's corrupted?

I recently got a 3gs, and would like to restore the phone from my previous 3g backup. When I went to do this, an error came up saying there was a firmware incompatibility issue.

The old computer was a poiwerbook g4, the new one is a black macbook.

IPhone :: How To Backup And Restore SMS From Old 3GS To New 4s

Jun 12, 2012

If I switch from my old 3GS to a new 4S, how can I backup and restore my SMS? They are quite a few and I don't want to loose them. As I understood searching this community, SMS are the one thing which is NOT part of the backup in iTunes, right? If so - WHY?

When I switched from my old Nokia N95 8GB to the 3GS, I made a backup of all my old SMS with some backup software which exported all the SMS data (e.g. time stamp, phone number, text,...) in a *.csv. Is there any chance to import them into the iPhone?

iPhone 3GS, Windows 7
