    Which password?
    If you mean the passcode to your iPhone, here's the solution:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    If you mean the encryption password to your backup on your computer:
    Warning: Make sure it's a password you will remember or write it down for safekeeping. If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and forget your password, you can't restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable.
    If you can't remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and chooseset up as a new device when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore.

  • IPhone 6 photo and video retrieval after restoring backup from my old iPhone 5 unit

    Hi,
    I was so excited to use my new iPhone 6 and started taking photos and videos with it. Not to mention that the photos and videos were of my all-time favorite artist during his much-awaited concert . When I got home, I forgot to download all the media files first to my desktop before performing "restore backup" via iTunes so all my old iPhone 5 settings could be duplicated in my new iPhone. Now, I can only access the photos/videos taken from my iPhone 5 in my iPhone 6. Not sure if I could still retrieve the new photos/videos taken recently using my iPhone 6 when they seem to have been overwritten by my old iPhone files. Please help.
    Thanks!

    Correction: the message that iTunes hangs at for hours on end was "Waiting for changes to be applied".

  • How to recover the userid and password with out losing data in c drive

    Hi, i have ibm server and installed windows server 2008 r2 standard. i forgot the userid and password for login so i used the password crack tool after that try to login but it shows " The login credentials are in correct" so how to login to
    system and get the c drive data safely with out loose.

    Hi,
    According to your description, I assume you have forgotten the administrator’s password. If you have another administrator account, you can use it to reset the password.
    If you don’t have another administrator account, then there is no Microsoft recommended way to reset passwords due to security considerations.
    Here are some similar threads below I suggest you refer to:

  • How do I get a new iMac to inherit Time Machine backups from my old iMac?

    After successfully migrating from my old iMac to my new iMac, I connected my Time Machine drive (containing the backup files from my old iMac).  Following the instructions from my Apple Genius Desk guru, I opened System Preference>Time Machine and selected the Time Machine drive to be my designated Time Machine for my new iMac.   I was presented with a dialog asking if I wanted to "Inherit the backup files that existed on the drive" (or words to that effect).  I selected "Yes".  I was told that this would create a continuous backup record, so that I would be able, using the "Enter Time Machine" command, to access all the backups going forward for my new iMac, but also all the files from my previous iMac, in a "seamless" chain of backups.  However, it didn't work out as I expected.  Looking in the Finder at the contents of my Time Machine drive, I saw that both the current and the prior backup files appeared to be there, all inside one folder, as I expected.  But using the "Enter Time Machine" command from the Time Machine drop-down menu I could not go back any further than the moment of migration to the new iMac.  On the upside, it seems like I will be able to recover old backup files using the Finder, but, on the downside it appears that I will NOT be able to use "Enter Time Machine" to return to search the backup files from my old iMac, in a "seamless" fashion as I had expected.  Did I miss something???  Or is this just the way it is???

    Without knowing what you have tried please open System Preferences - Sharing - File Sharing and select File Sharing. If you still have trouble you can call AppleCare in the morning when they re-open. You have 90 days of telephone support if you haven't already bought AppleCare.

  • Just got my iphone 5s and tried to restore backup from my iphone 4.  When I restored it, it automatically went back to the backup from 2013

    Never gave me an option to restore from the backup I did last night.  Now I want to restart and just start over from the settings I had when I purchased it this afternoon. The old backup looks outdated and only transferred over certain info, no apps. Please help!!!

    There is no other backup listed though. That's the problem. The only one I can choose from is from last year when I am a thousand percent confident I backed it up the other night.  Not only did I do it through itunes, but I also backed it up via the icloud.
    Other than keeping my contacts, I don't care about losing what is on the backup from last year if I can't restore it to something sooner. I would rather have the settings it came with when I purchased the phone yesterday.

  • Trying to restore backup from another user ID to new phone and id?

    My back up did not totally transfer pictures, contacts from one user id to another. 

    Not sure what you are asking.  Are you saying you were able to restore to the iCloud backup but not all the data was restored?

  • How do I prevent icloud from overwriting my contacts when doing a restore backup from PC to iphone?

    My icloud contact list is screwed up. I have my contact list in my PC backup. I've removed icloud from iphone AND changed apple ID and icloud ID, yet when I attempt to restore backup from PC to iphone, my correct contact list shows up momentarily, then reverts to the screwed up icloud contact list.
    I understand that my PC backup is set to connect to icloud; however, one would think by removing the email address associated with apple or icloud that it would not be able to connect to icloud when I do a restore backup from PC to iphone. Yet each time I find icloud connected via my old email address after attempting the restore.
    How do I fix this? This seems like an icloud bug, since it connects via my old email/ID.

    The problem may be that the iphone is immediately syncing with icloud and losing the newly restored data.  You might turn off your router.  Once restored, turn off icloud on the device, turn on the router, then turn on the iphone.
    (I'm going by memory on this, and that hasn't been too reliable lately.)

  • My laptop died, how can I plug my ipod classic into a new pc with out losing all my music, over 10,000 songs?!

    my laptop died, how can I plug my ipod classic into a new pc with out losing all my music, over 10,000 songs?!
    Please help!

    Was your iPod previously set up to Manually Manage (where you dragged/dropped the music) or was it set to auto sync (where it started sycning as soon as you plugged it in.)?
    If it was set to Manual, you have no worries. Just continue on your way.
    If it was set to Auto, you will have to transfer your purchases or redownload them from the iTunes store.
    You're either going to have to get the other music back from the websites/CDs you got them from before or find an iPod ripping software program that will do it for you.
