Apple Iphone Backup Software Free [UPD] Download

You can choose which content to back up only from the Settings menu of the device that stores that content. For example, while you can view your iPad backup from your iPhone, you can choose which iPad content to back up only from the Settings menu of your iPad.

Actually, I don't recall ever setting one. Now however, I have a new phone and cannot restore it from the backup, as there it prompts me for a password I don't have! I tried all the ones I've used for my iPhone and pretty much every other one of which I can think, all to no avail. I need the data in the back up. But I can't get to it. I've already tried the keychain route to no avail. Does anyone have any suggestions? I have a MacBook Pro running Mac OSX 10.6.7 and iTunes 10.2.2. The iPhone is an iPhone 4.

You won't be able to use previous encrypted backups, but you can back up your current data using iTunes and setting a new backup password.If you have a device with iOS 10 or earlier, you can't reset the password. In this case, try the following:

Nice list, Lawrence! My god, I can't believe this issue is continuing. ITunes needs to warn people about the implications of entering a password for a backup. If it said "This password will be used automatically without prompting for all future backups. Please record it in a safeplace" then people wouldn't continue making the same mistake they've been making since this thread started 7 years ago.

This is really vague and ambiguous, given the importance and unstated "fine print" around this whole process... And doesn't include any information about the fact that this password will be unchanging forever, will be used for all future backups, is unrecoverable, and will be required into the indefinite future in order to use any backups made from now until eternity. (Again, better option would be to ask the user each time they make a backup if they want to create a new password, or use the existing one.)

Seems to me it would be a nice option, actually, to let people use their Apple ID if they choose, since it's one less password to remember. And then if/when you change your Apple ID password, you can still access your backups. In either case, if that's not possible for some reason, then make it CLEAR that this is NOT the Apple ID password, but a completely new and separate password being created.

p.s.: the only reason I saw these dialogs was that previously I was backing up to iCloud, but ran out of space so started using local backup instead. So this might be something to try BEFORE you create your backup (for example, if you know in advance that you don't remember this special password, but want to create a new backup) - on your device, go into Settings > iCloud > Backup and switch the toggle (so if you're currently backing up to iCloud, turn it off, or if you're NOT currently backing up to iCloud, then turn it on). Then the next time you go to create a backup, iTunes will ask you if you want to use encryption, and let you create a new password for it if you choose to do so.

She performed the backup. And now she can't restore this backup - which she JUST MADE - because it's asking her for a passcode. She has no recollection of ever entering a passcode for her backups. Perhaps she did create one - several years ago. Who knows. Point being: the user should be told when creating a backup that the backup will be locked.

And, again, it should also be made very clear that this password will be the same forever - which is kind of weird, when you think about it - and can never be changed in the future, or recovered if you forget it. Again, each time a backup is made, it would be better to remind the user about this and ask if they would like to create a new password.

Well, if you think about what the password actually is - it is not a "password" in the usual sense. It is the encryption key for the backup. As a result, it isn't saved anywhere, unless you check "Remember this password in my keychain" when you first set it. As it isn't saved anywhere, there is no way to change it unless you know the password. And no way to recover it, for the same reason. In general cybersecurity protocols specify that no password should ever be recoverable. If you access a site that can tell you what your password was you should cease using that site, as any hacker worth her salt can steal your password.

The reason for all of this security is because it means that no one, not Apple, not a hacker, not someone who stole your phone, not law enforcement, not your ex's lawyer, can recover the contents of your phone or its backup. If there were any way to access the backup or change its password without knowing it all of these people would be able to hack the backup or get a court order to recover the information.

It has been proven beyond any doubt that Apple has not been adding or creating encryption passwords for iTunes backups. This can't be what keeps this inane conversation going. What does is posts like yours, continuing to imply someone else is responsible. Each of those who recalled or reverse-engineered their encryption password(s) came to realize that the password was indeed set by them at some point and being human, they forgot not only the password, but that they created and entered that password in iTunes.

You will notice that it says "Enter a password to protect your [iPad|iPhone] backup." Nowhere does it say this password is for any other purpose, or does it say that it has anything to do with any other password.

What isn't clear about "Enter a password to protect your iPad(iPhone) backup." It does NOT say enter your iTunes password. It clearly says it is a password for the backup. And, while some people used their iTunes password, many did not, so a lot of people understood the message. I posted a list of different passwords that users have found to be the one they used, further up this page. Out of 156 users in this thread when I created the list only 40 (about 1/4) used their iTunes password.

It took me hours figuring this out. I do not remember putting password as well, and tried several possible passwords, tried atleast40. Attaching pictures here of what worked for me. Used steps 1-4 from "if you can't remember the password from your encrypted backup" and then Steps 1 and 4 from "Edouard G". Hope this helps.

I have a Windows 10 laptop, and I did an encrypted back up of my iphone 6 using iTunes. I set the password (using the same password as my apple id password), yet it would tell me that the password was incorrect. After several attempts and reading through this support page, I encountered a message that helped me. It reads as follows:

Hi elabianca, look in your Keychain Access app, in your Utilities folder. Launch it, search for "iphone backup", and chances are you'll get a match. Open the item, click "show password" and enter your Mac system password.

I then put 2 and 2 together and since I have Windows 10, I decided to use my Windows 10 password for the password that I was being asked for the restore backup. Guess what? It worked! Hope this helps.

I am switching today from an iPhone 6 to an iPhone 6 S Plus. When I tried to restore my iPhone 6S Plus from the iPhone 6 backup, I saw that the old iPhone 6 backup was encrypted. I do not know the password anymore and also not the password of my Apple keyring. So I googled and found out, that I need to delete the old iPhone 6 local backup which I did. But even after its deleted I still need to enter the (forgotten) password, when I want to make a new local backup from my iPhone 6 (that I can then use to build my iPHone 6S Plus from.

If I erase my phone and set it up as new, I presume that means I would have to reenter all of my contacts, reminders, notes, etc, and download all of my apps manually? As opposed to restoring from an iCloud backup?

The answer is a little complicated. You can SYNC a lot of data to iCloud. On the phone go to iCloud settings. There are a bunch of switches (Mail, Contact, Calendars, Reminders, etc). If you turn these switches On the associated contents of each of these apps will sync to iCloud in real time. You can view them by logging in to using any browser, and sync them to your iPad, Mac or PC, so all of your devices will have the same data. Anything that you sync this way is not part of any backup (iCloud or iTunes). If you erase your phone and set it up as New as soon as you log in to iCloud all of this information will sync back to your phone. You would still have to download your apps manually, and you would lose any app data that was not saved on the app provider's cloud. You could also create a new, unencrypted iTunes backup.

I already have access to my phone and don't care about decrypting old backups, just let me start again. Every backup software be it enterprise or personal let's me do this without compromising any existing encrypted backups.

You will have to erase your phone, set it up as New. Then you can create an unencrypted backup. If it was possible to create an unencrypted backup after saying you wanted backups to be encrypted there would be no point in ever encrypting a backup.

You can't use an encrypted backup if you don't have the password. If you forgot your password, the only way to turn off backup encryption on your device is to erase your device and set up as new. Erasing removes all data from your device. If you don't want to erase your device, restore from an iCloud backup instead.

Extract and manage data from your device or backup: call history, voicemail, notes, voice memos, calendar, Safari data, contacts, ringtones, pocasts, and books. 006ab0faaa
