I lost my  password, how do i recover my back-up from my computer (itunes)?

If you forgot the passcode for yur encrypted backup you are out of luch.  You will have to restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod if you want to restore from backup in the future.
Warning: If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and then forget your password, you will not be able to restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable. If you forget the password, you can continue to back up and use the device, however you will not be able to restore the encrypted backup to any device without the password. You do not need to enter the password for your backup each time you back up or sync.
If you cannot remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore, choose set up as a new device.

  • HT4847 how to i get to back-up from my computer

    I used to have an iphone 3gs. I traded it in for a galaxy. The lady at the att store said if I had icloud, we could get the pictures from our pc/online. However when I go to icloud there is no photo link for me to see if they are on there. This happened back in the spring. I just got an email from icloud saying my storage with them was almost full. I don't see any information not to mention added info that would make this so. Is there something I am missing? How do I get to the backed up info. Can I get to it from my pc since I no longer have that phone anymore? Are my pics lost forever???

    The only thing you could access on your PC would be photo stream photos from the last 30 days (older ones are no longer in iCloud).  If you have any, and if you are running Vista SP2 or higher, you can set up iCloud on your PC and enable photo stream to download the photos, as explained here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html.
    You can't download your iCloud backup to your PC.  You can only recover camera roll photos included in the backup by restoring the backup to another iPhone.  If you have a backup on your computer, you can use 3rd party software such as iPhone Backup Extractor to extract the photos from the backup.  (You can check to see if you have a backup on your computer by opening iTunes, going to Preferences>Devices and looking at the Backups list.

    I have lost my audiobooks, how do I get them back?

    From your backup copy of your computer.
    Your audiobooks will only be where you put them.  It is your responsibility to back up your content.
    Audiobooks are a one time download.

    I updated and now I've lost my contacts, how do I recover them?

    The iphone is designed to be synced to your computer or cloud service regularly.  Your contacts will be in whatever program/cloud service that you have been syncing.
    If you have failed to sync you contacts then they are likely gone.
