First iTunes account password (40 different users).Please explain how every user that successfully guessed their password had a different one, some of them passwords that Apple's software could not possibly have known? Here are some from from this and other threads on the subject: I never post on forums like this but I had been trying to fix this for months so thought I would share in the hopes it could help anyone experiencing the same issue.
You cannot restore from an old backup but you can simply backup your phone now making sure the encryption box remains unchecked and you now no longer have an encrypted back up. My issue was a little different however, as I still had my old phone so I could simply back it up again once the encryption was removed. After it has reset plug it back it and the encrypted box will no longer be checked. However if you go to Settings, General, Reset, Reset All Settings - it actually removes the encryption (it does not remove any data etc). I had tried every password possible, every suggestion on these forums and nothing worked for me. I definitely never set my back-ups as encrypted and hence never chose a password for a back-up.
Update May 2019: this article was originally published in Dec 2014 and has since been updated to reflect the change of recent iTunes versions.Not sure if this will help you specifically but it helped me in a similar situation. That’s to say if your iTunes backup file or computer lost, others won’t be able to access your encrypted iPhone backup without the password.Įxcept iTunes, there are many third-party backups tools you can also choose, such as this iPhone backup & restore. If you choose to set password to protect the iPhone backup, the next time you restore iPhone from the iTunes backup, you will be required to verify the password.
When the backup process completes, you can verify the encrypted iTunes backup file from Menu bar > Edit > Preferences > Devices, a list of all your iTunes backup files displays, you will see a small lock icon to the right of your device name, along with the data and time that iTunes created the backup file on your computer.Encrypt iphone itunes backup password – manual backup – windows computer Extra iTunes backup tips
