Any updates on resetting itunes computer backup password?

Are there any updates available on how to go about resetting the itunes backup password? I never set it to begin with so I have not idea what it is

I am running LR in 2 PCs. a Sony VAIO laptop with Intel solo processor, 2 GB RAM. and a desktop with XP SP2 with 2 GB RAM. all the pics in a NAS device and a DB replicated in both PCs.
No issues with Vista, other than most of the drivers for my peripherals are late. the driver for the EPSON 2200 was just released 2 weeks ago, the driver for the 32 bits CF PCMCIA reader is not ready so I used a workaround, etc. It will probably take one year before all the drivers and applications work well with Vista. LR works perfect for me on both OS and I am managing 10K pics so far.
One tip: LR was rather slow on Vista... until I discovered that Norton Firewall was sucking up 30% of CPU power!. I turned Norton Firewall off ad Visa firewall on and LR is back running as fast as in the XP machine (where I also have Norton)... I guess Norton will release some fixes soon :-) So check out if the firewall (and the side bar) are consuming processing speed on your Vista machine.
LR needs improvements and I am sure those improvements will come with time. But it works with Vista and I am super happy with LR today as I improved the speed of my workflow at least 5x versus Photoshop CS, as I mostly do just WB, exposure, metadata and cropping... when one works on stock photography and events photos, if you do more than that it is not worth it... and probably one needs to learn how to take better pics, not how to fix the pics with PS magic :-)

How do u reset my restore backup password?

How do u reset my restore backup password?

Hello Rissey,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
The encrypted backup password stays unless you want to restore the device as new.
iOS: Troubleshooting encrypted backups
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5162
You need the backup password to disable backup encryption or to restore from an encrypted backup.
You can keep trying to restore the device from backup until you remember the password. If you're having trouble, try:
Leaving the password field blank
Your Apple ID password
Your computer account password, if you have one
Email passwords you may have used
Your Wi-Fi network password
Website passwords you may have used
A password for hard-disk encryption software, if you use it
iTunes: About iOS backups
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946
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.
Have a nice day,
Mario

Yes, I think most of us do understand what open source software is. It sounds as if you don't. Here's some information:
Open-source software (OSS) is computer software that is available in source code form: the source code and certain other rights normally reserved forcopyright holders are provided under an open-source license that permits users to study, change, improve and at times also to distribute the software.

How do you reset your computer's password?

For the past 8 months or so my friend has never done any of the apple updates on his Macbook.
Why? Because he has *forgotten his password* – the one you need to install any applications onto the computer.
At first it didn’t bother him but now it’s been going on for so long he has missed out on all the updates for iTunes, QuickTime and just general maintenance of the laptop.
_How do you reset the password?_
He is running on Mac OS X version 10.4 “Tiger”

How do i reset iTunes incremental backup?

I used iTunes Backup to incrementally backup my iTunes library. But when I check the DVDs, neither iTunes nor the system recognize the DVDs; they don't mount. For whatever reason they're all coasters. The Apple tech guys think it might be media incompatibility.
Cool. I'll start over. I test an other brand of DVD; they seem to work. I'm ready to go. But since I've been using the incremental backup option iTunes now thinks that everything is backed up.

Quad 2.5 GHz PowerPC G5 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Go into Edit > Preferences, and on the Devices make sure that 'Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically' is not ticked - if it is ticked then untick it and see if the 'open iTunes ..' becomes unprotected.

"If you've forgotten the Apple ID password how did you log in to make the last post?"
Exactly! The password I used to log on here and write my post I figured was the same Apple ID password I would use to reset my computer login password. But my computer isn't recognizing it as the correct password so it wont let me update my login password. I have 2 user accounts on my computer.
As far as the link you provided, I already looked to that for help earlier. It states:
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Users & Groups, click the lock to unlock it, then provide an administrator name and password. Select a user, then click Reset Password.
I did these steps, but I don't remember my admin password. The question is: How do I reset my admin password so I can reset my log in password.
Is my admin password the same password I use to log onto this website to post questions? If so, like I said previously, I already reset that password and my computer isnt recognizing it.

I had just updated my Mac to 10.6.1. When it finished, I had tried to open up Itunes but it says it requires 10.6.8 or later. When i had tried to update my mac it asked for my adiminstartor password. I dont know my password. Any way to reset it without using a disc?

Sure there is.
1. restart your computer in Single User Mode (by pressing Command + S during boot - see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1492)
This will boot your OS X system in a kind of command line mode.
Note: this will not work if you have a Firmware password set.
2. when in Single User Mode, enter the following command
mount -uw /
to mount your OS X file system.
3. now you can enter the following command
passwd username
replacing "username" by your OS X user's short name. Then you will be prompted to enter the new password for that user. You will have to confirm that new password.
Note that you will not see any character showing when you enter the new password; this is expected behaviour.

HT4946 i have forget my iphone backup password in itune, any way to reset it ?

i have forget my iphone backup password in itune, any way to reset it ?

Well, there ya go. The requirement to encrypt your backups has been done by a profile installed on your phone when you setup the Exchange account. The only way around this is to delete the account & profile from your phone.
Try your Exchange password or Domain password.

How to reset backup password on my computer Itunes

There is no reset if you can't remember it. You'll have to restore as a new phone & delete your existing backups & start over. I'd suggest you try & remember it.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

IPhone 5, backup on computer is password protected, forgot password, still have phone, just want to reset the password so i can create a new backup!

I have an iPhone 5.
At some point, I backed it up to my PC, with a password.
I have forgotten the password.
I still have the phone.
I can no longer back it up to the PC.
I want to wipe the backup, password, etc, and start again.
Surely that can't be impossible!

Thanks both - do you think it's worth giving this a shot?

Once iTunes is set to encrypt iPhone backups, switching this feature off requires the password. What if the password is forgotten or unknown? You can still reset iTunes to make a fresh backup without encryption. Follow these steps to uncheck Encrypt iPhone backup:
Perform these steps at your own risk!
1. Delete any Mail Exchange accounts on the iPhone.
2. Delete old encrypted backups from iTunes.
3. Use iExplorer or ssh to delete the file /private/var/Keychains/Keychain-2.db from the iOS filesystem. Note: this step will clear stored passwords from your device.
4. Restart the iPhone.
5. Connect the iPhone to your computer and open iTunes.
6. Uncheck the box next to Encrypt iPhone backup.
7. If prompted for a password, enter the passcode currently set on your iPhone.
When successful, iTunes should begin backing up the iPhone to an unencrypted backup. If this does not happen, start a new unencrypted backup manually.

When trying to update Apps in iTunes on my computer my old Apple ID appears, which is no longer in use and has no password; even when I try to create a password for this Old ID, Apple won't let me. When I go into see my Account settings My new Apple ID / iTunes ID are listed and the passwords are correct obviously so why can't I update my Apps? Why does my Old apple ID keep appearing and how can I get Apple to change this?

I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account. I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there. On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back. Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email. The device is currently useless.
The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

Any updates on resetting itunes computer backup password?
