If the backup you're trying to restore from is encrypted, you will not be able to use that backup if you can't remember the encrypted backup passcode.
If on a Mac, & you elected to save the passcode to your Keychain, you can recover the passcode from your Keychain. Otherwise, your backup data is unrecoverable.
While you can continue to sync/backup, if you can't remember it & want to remove it, you'll have to delete your existing backups, & restore your phone as a new device. Your data will be unrecoverable.
You delete your existing backups here: iTunes>Preferences>Devices.

    First, you need to send the project to iTunes:

  • TS3694 I am trying to restore my ipod and it stopped moving before the restoration was completed. How do I re-set the ipod. I can't turn it off.

    How do I turn off I pod touch?   The restore screen is stuck

    Thanks for the assistance.  I was able to restore my I pod after letting the battery run down.  I then synced the I pod to my new computer.  Most of the songs moved from the cloud to the actual I pod drive.  But, many of them did not.  I tried downloading them from the cloud on my I pod, but this didn’t work.  Will I be able to restore the missing songs?  Thanks, Cleveland.

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable              
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Unfortunately Pakistan is one of those countries where media isn't available from iTunes - when that might change we won't know (we are fellow users on here) until if/when Apple announce something.
    Are there other music purchase download sites available there ? Or you can copy your CDs via your computer's iTunes and sync them to your phone

  • TS1702 I am trying to install an app, I'm asked to enter my password, but my keyboard won't pop up, only the option to paste, but when I choose paste, nothing fills in (which makes sense as I have not copied anything). How can I make my keyboard appear?

    Are you tapping on the field you want to enter data into? That opens the soft keyboard. If you touch the field and hold it, the paste option will appear.

  • HT201413 i tryed to restore my phone but it turns of during the process and an error happens so what should i do

    i tryed to restore my phone but it turn off during the process and an error happens so should i do ?

    Hello there, VladlsSwag.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides some steps for troubleshooting your issue:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Particularly:
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

    You can go to Settings>Store and log out of one account and log into another.  However, apps are tied to the account that originally purchased them.  You have to use that account to update them.  Also, if you have apps from more than one account that need updating, you have to update them individually using the correct account until the ones left are from only one account.  Then you can update all.

  • HT201210 I'm trying to restore my phone and it keeps saying that this iphone cannot be restored at this time because the iphone software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavailable

    I've been trying to restore my phone the whole day and every time that's about to finish the extration this message comes up " The iphone cannot be restored at this time because the iphone software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavailable"
    Do anyone know if there's a way to fix this? It's in DFU mode so I can't do anything with it anymore, i have no phone.
    Please help.

    Windows user? Maybe you should check your HOSTS file to make sure nothing is stopping you from contacting Apple's servers - though if you're not looking to update you might still be out of luck. Also, maybe disable IP blacklist apps like PeerBlock just in case they're interfering with your connection to Apple.

    I can't open apps on my iPhone.  The touch screen doesn't work.  I have restored it already but it still won't work.  What can I do.

    If the touch screen is not having any response then you probably have a hardware failure. Take your phone to an Apple Store or authorised service provider to have it checked.
