Delete the encryption password with backups

Hi, I setup the password for iphone backup in itunes a while ago. Now I cannot get it thru as it keep saying my password wrong. I did it in a hurry so I might have either forgot the password, or I typed the password wrong to begin with... So I am trying clear it. I thought I was able to delete the old backups so the password will be cleared. While I do a new backup I can reset the password for it. But i didn't work. I am not sure if I am in the right path. Can anyone help me on this?
Thanks!
(I am using Windows Vista + iphone 3G.)

"If you cannot remember the password and want to start again, you will have to do a full software restore and when prompted by iTunes to select the backup to restore from, choose "Set up as a new device". "

  • How to compare the texted password with the encrypted password of dba_users

    Hi,
    I have Oracle 10g in my system. I know dba_users table has information of all the created users of the oracle, along with their encrypted passwords.If I want to make a login page based on this table ,how could I compare the password in that case?
    In above situation, I am getting the username with the regular texted password for authentication check. How can we checked this texted password with the encrypted password of dba_users, for the respective username?
    Your input would be appreciated.

    Try use the username/password from login page to create an connection to database.

  • Why can't I reset the master password with the option of removing all username:passwords by unchecking "Use Master Password"?

    Why can't I reset the master password with the option of removing all username:passwords by unchecking "Use Master Password"? Currently, there seems to only be the option to issue a "chrome:" command in URL which DOES reset the master password. However, it was something that I had to google. The intuitive option would be to uncheck the "Use Master Password" checkbox, receive a verification dialogue, and blammo, password reset. Please make this a feature, thank you.

    ''cor-el [[#answer-702776|said]]''
    <blockquote>
    You can remove all password in the Show Passwords dialog.
    That is where you manage the passwords.
    The master password is only for protecting the passwords with an extra level of encryption and has nothing to do with erasing passwords apart from resetting the MP in case you have forgotten the MP and can't open "Show passwords".
    </blockquote>
    Sorry, for being unclear. Essentially this is a feature request for an option under Firefox options (why not?) to reset my Master Password not knowing the Master Password. For Security reasons I understand why all the saved passwords have to be wiped, but wiping the Master Password (having forgotten it) should be an option without having to issue an arcane command that one has to google to figure out.

  • How do i view photos in macbook pro, and while viewing how can i delete the unwanted photos with delete button?

    1 My questions are about viewing and managing photos from a folder.
    a. How do i view photos in macbook pro - i know the space bar thingy but does not help my purpose?
    b. While viewing how can i delete the unwanted photos with delete button?
    c. How can i increase the size of the photos that i am seeing in the form of icons?

    double clicking in iPhoto will open the photo.
    The left and right arrow key will move between photos, as well as swiping on a trackpad or Apple mouse.
    See >System Preference>Trackpad or mouse  for options and tut
    While selected or in the smaller icon view hitting the Delete key will delete the pic.
    Command Z will undo the last action taken.
    Periodically you have to empty the iPhoto trash.  iPhoto drop down menu>empty trash
    Same applies for viewing pics in a Folder NOT in iphoto,  Use the up and down arrows does not work in Preview, but as you know in QuickLook (spacebar) the up and down arrows will navigate.

  • Am deleting the master password but the "Remove" button is disabled.

    Am deleting the master password in firefox preferences/security but the "Remove" option is disabled. Why? and how do I enable it? Thank you!

    You can set the master password to an empty string to disable/remove a currently set master password.

    Have you signed out of your iTunes account on the device/computer that you are using and signed back in with the updated password ? That should 'refresh' the account on it, and you should be able to use the account's new password to download updates to its apps

  • Select statement from a join file deletes the primary records with MS Expl.

    Hello,
    is reality,
    Select statement from a join file deletes the primary records with MS Explorer 6, Firefox not, this with a normal data provider or with a normal "select..." statement.
    This is very strange, I should have a.a.s.p. a solution or workaround
    Thanks, Franco.

    Please see the following excerpt from the online documentation.
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e22490/ldr_modes.htm#SUTIL1332
    Enabled Constraints
    During a direct path load, the constraints that remain enabled are as follows:
    NOT NULL
    UNIQUE
    PRIMARY KEY (unique-constraints on not-null columns)
    NOT NULL constraints are checked at column array build time. Any row that violates the NOT NULL constraint is rejected.
    Even though UNIQUE constraints remain enabled during direct path loads, any rows that violate those constraints are loaded anyway (this is different than in conventional path in which such rows would be rejected). When indexes are rebuilt at the end of the direct path load, UNIQUE constraints are verified and if a violation is detected, then the index will be left in an Index Unusable state. See "Indexes Left in an Unusable State".

  • Why can't I create a new backup if I don't remember the encryption password from an old backup?

    I imagine this is so it can simply edit the old backup, but can't I just create a new backup?

    Same issue.  Have deleted the old backup and can't create a new encrypted backup without the password for the old backup. Can't create an unencrypted backup without the password for the old backup.  This is a functional software defect that Apple needs to fix.
    NOTE: I AM NOT TRYING TO ACCESS THE OLD BACKUP, I JUST WANT TO CREATE A NEW ONE.

  • I have accidentally deleted the proloquotogo app with all it's data. It was on my iCloud backup list so can I know restore all the settings for this app from a previous iCloud backup? I now only have the basic pages instead of all the programmed pages.

    I have accidentally deleted my proloquotogo app with all it's programmed data. Is it possible to restore from iCloud as it was listed in managing storage. Where does this backup go to? I have reinstalled the app but I only have the basic pages. Help please. Thanks

    Essentially it would mean another Internet connection yes, however it's your local network that I am wondering about and whether it could be the problem.

  • I want to disable the encryption for my backups. Where do I find that?

    I want to disable the encryption in ITunes so I can work with restoring my new Iphone 5s and my new Ipad Air.
    Where do I find that?

    Hello RadioProf,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information, take a look at:
    iTunes: About iOS backups
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946
    iOS: Troubleshooting encrypted backups
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5162
    iTunes will continue making encrypted backups until you deselect the Encrypt backup checkbox in the iTunes Device Summary screen. You need the backup password to disable backup encryption or to restore from an encrypted backup.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

  • Encrypt password with a keyword

    Hello
    I want to store passwords in a data table.
    The passwords must be encrypt with a keyword. The idea is that we need this keyword to decrypt the password.
    So only the users who knows the keyword will be able to decrypt the password stored in the table through a specific transaction.
    Do you know if there are function modules which can make this kind of encryption / decryption ?
    Thank you for your help.

    > Yes, I know these functions but it's not sufficient.
    > We really need to encrypt the passwords with a keyword in order to guarantee the security.
    Thank you for that. These function modules are urban legends caused by their misleading names.
    Last I heard, they will be deleted in a future release.
    > The standard authorisation are not sufficient because anyone who can access to SE37 will be able to decrypt the passwords.
    Well, you can and should protect that in a productive environment... (the ability to display, and execute, the FM - see SAP Note 587410).
    > That's why we want that only the users who knows that keyword will be able to decrypt.
    Then you will need to prompt the user for a password, before the decryption.
    So there are 2 issues:
    Password prompt
    You can create a symbolic user without any access (roles) and manage it's password. Before the decryption, check that the calling user at least knows the password of this user.
    You can do this locally in the same client (see report RDDPWDCHK for coding examples - carefull, it updates the "lock count" for failed password attempts now) or remotly using an RFC connection without saved login data to a different client or system. The latter can be usefull, as the ability to set the password = the ability to decrypt.
    Encryption / Decryption
    You will need to save the algorithm somewhere, or use an existing function which offers the ability to decrypt. Obviously, the latter option can bypass your prompt...
    One way of doing it would be to write your own external RFC server program which does this task, and protect it.
    Another way would be to store the sensitive parts of the code in an encrypted file which can only be accessed from your program context. It would then only be "visible" at runtime. In this case, folks could also access the hidden parts via developer traces or short dumps or debugging.
    Restricting access to the "real" code is the easiest option, and other more complicated approaches generally require restricted access anyway.
    > anyone who can access to SE37 will be able to decrypt the passwords.
    If someone has access to display source code and single-test all function modules, then all security is toasted anyway...
    Cheers,
    Julius

  • How do I delete the BIOS password on my Satellite A200?

    Dear Gentlemen:
    I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop A200 - 10N with MODEL NO. PSAE3E - 02D00HGR and mistakenly got a password when you turn on your computer and is lost, the fact is that it is not known whether it was from the BIOS or from the utility that you have in the Windows Vista operating system.
    In any case it would have to reset the BIOS form or in some other way to make it as at the beginning and not ask any password.
    Thank you.

    Hi dude
    Bad news the BIOS cannot be deleted or removed if you dont know the old password.
    In such case there is only one way to get the notebook password free you have to contact the ASP in your country and the guys could do this job.
    Good luck and best regards
