Password to unlock backup doesnt work - changed passwords and still not accepting - suggestions?

Password to unlock iphone backup doesnt work, tried new password and still nothing, any suggestions/help?

If you don't know the password for your encrypted backup, it can no longer be used.  The whole point of encryption is lost if the password can be circumvented.
Your only choice now is to disable backup encryption and create a new backup. If you need to encrypt the new backup - re-enable encryption and DO NOT LOSE THE PASSWORD.

  • Ipad no accepting 4 digit passcode and then asking Hotmail account password and still not accepting

    Not able to go beyond the first screen. Says incorrect passcode and then asks for Hotmail account password and does not accept that also. How to get into my Ipad????
    Please help....!

    For your problem there Not much you can do if you can't finger out your password.
    1: you can retore the device to last backup date. "Recommended"
    2: you can keep trying to remember you password and in time your device ether lock up or it will make you want for a vary long time.
    If your willing to do a retore fallow The steps below
    1 power off the device.
    2 turn on iTunes and then hold the home button wile holding the home pluge the device into the computer. Keep holding the home until the computer sees the device and says it needs a restor,
    3 do a restor. The computer will download the new ios5.0.1 and install it on your device.
    (note if the iPad reboots before the computer is done downloading don't worry about it. Just power it back off and hold home and pluge it back in ones more. And select restor again.)
    4 ones it's done with restore. Click on the device in your left calume and right click it and select restor from back up.
    5 pick your name of the name of the iPad and wait for it for complet all transfers. This can take some time. Even up to a hour some times more if you have a lot of apps.

  • Powerbook g4 charger not working, changed fuse and still no luck

    I've got a powerbook g4 laptop. A few nights ago the charger just stopped working. The wire is totally intact and we have tried changing the fuse within the plug but it keeps fusing out and still not working. I really don't want to buy a new charger as I've bought at least 6 over the last 5 years (through the wire fraying) AND replaced the battery once already. Is there anything I can do to fix it?
    Thanks!

    You must be remarkably hard on your adapter cords. I packed my Powerbook and adapter up and unpacked them again at least daily for six years and my original adapter is still working fine.
    If the port to which the adapter cord connects in your Powerbook is at all loose or wobbly, your DC-in card is shot, and that may explain why your fuse keeps blowing. If you're in the habit of tripping over your adapter cord, that would explain both the long sequence of ruined adapters and a broken DC-in port/card in the computer.
    Unless you plan to treat your adapter more gently in the future, buying an inexpensive third-party adapter instead of an Apple unit would be a good idea.

As you know, if forces you to restore which caused me to loose valuable information and documents. insert loud profanity here _________. lol

  • My home button doesnt work at all and its not broken and it didnt fall. What should I do to solve this issue?

    This is an iPad replacement because the ne that I had before rejected my sim card so Apple sent me a new ne for free. I received it last Wednesday and the home button didnt work correctly. And today, a week later, it just stopped working completely, whenever I press it, it doesnt work. What should I do? Are there any steps that I can take to try to solve this button issue?

    hmm.
    it literally does nothing?
    If the engraving is important to you, then you may wish to get it repaired.
    I would recommend calling iphone repair www.iphonerepair.com

  • If I have only 2 of 5 computors authorized to play content, why does it ask for my ID and password and still not allow them to be played ?

    My PC crashed and I purchased "Media Widget" from Bootstrap Developement to restore the contents of my ipod to my new itunes account. After downloading the contents of my ipod to itunes (thru MW) I encountered a problem playing several of my albums (including the ones I purchased from the itunes store) In those cases it asked me for my ID and password, and when provided, it still would not play some of the albums.

    iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases
    Are you sure that some of the music was not purchased from another account?

  • Trying to import a .mov file made with gotomeeting - no problems in past yet says No importable files -None of the selected files or folders can be imported. Change the selection and try again.  re-recorded 3 times and still not accepting HELP

    Trying to import a .mov file made with gotomeeting - no problems in past doing this. After 3 attempts recording the hour long video and trying to upload it to iMovie, it says No importable files -None of the selected files or folders can be imported. Change the selection and try again. What could the reason be?

    After much research and troubleshooting, GoToMeeting replied with the final answer: We do not support the uploading of recordings to editing software. If you are having issues uploading a recording, unfortunately, we do not have tools or steps to resolve this. It is not a supported feature. I am sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you. 
    The no longer plan to support editing of recordings made with their software.  So, we are planning to find a new meeting provider.

  • I have changed my password and still can't get homesharing to work. Get the message "Homesharing could not be activated because the account or password was incorrect. It's what I have used to sign in here!

    I  have changed my password and still can't get home sharing to work. Get the message "Home sharing could not be activated because the account or password was incorrect." It's what I have used to sign in here! Any help much appreciated.

    So I reset my Apple ID password. Which then stopped my MobileMe account from working. Hang on - these were 2 different accounts a while ago, with different passwords!!!
    So I have logged back in to MobileMe with my AppleID, and that's working again. After a short wait I can now create Home Sharing again.
    Folks, I think we have just had our Apple IDs merged with our MobileMe accounts!! With no consultation or warning.
    My guess is that this is the most seamless way for Apple to do it, as the vast majority of people use only one email address and one password for everything. Only those of us who had the same email adress but different a different passwords for MobileMe and Apple ID will have noticed. Annoying for us few, but a clever strategy on Apple's part, becasue we have been driven to fix the issue ourselves by chaning the password, and in doing so we have realised that our mobileme account is now the same thing as our Apple ID.

  • HT202274 Apple ID has my old email address. It will not allow me to change the address and will not accept my password or ID questions.   I recently upgraded to OSX Yosemite 10.10.1.  I also have an Apple ID that works with iTunes and would like to keep i

    Apple ID has my old email address. It will not allow me to change the address and will not accept my password or ID questions.   I recently upgraded to OSX Yosemite 10.10.1.  I also have an Apple ID that works with iTunes and would like to keep it as my primary.

    To change the iCloud ID on your devices you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted (if using iOS 7), then sign back in with your current ID.
    If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, you will have to temporarily recreate it in order to delete the existing account.  To do this, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • Hello, the ipad 2, CREA locked i put a password and do not remember. . How do I restore and unlock?

    Hello, the ipad 2, CREA locked i put a password and do not remember. . How do I restore and unlock?

    If you've forgotten the passcode to unlock the iPad then you will need to connect it to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPad and re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If you do it via a different computer then :
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.
