Updated iPad2 with OS5 but forget backup password, how do I retrieve password or go back to before update since I saved password on iPad

Updated ipad2 with OS5 but forget my backup password, can I reset from previous setting and try again since my password is somewhere on my iPad?

If you want to restore to a backup then you need to know what the password for that backup is - so no, you are stuck in a loop, as in order to find your password that you've got stored in that backup, you will need to enter the password so that you can restore to that backup

  • How do I get my old apps back from before update

    I need my paid apps back but I can't find them

    If you created a backup, you can restore from that.
    Launch iTunes. From the menu bar, click iTunes / Preferences then select the Devices tab.
    If there's a backup available, you'll see it there.
    And, you can see your Apps under Library on the left side of the iTunes window.
    And go to the App Store on your iPod. Find a previously downloaded app. You should be able to re download without repurchasing.

    Have you encrypted the backups files from your iPad? If so, that is likely the password needed.

  • Help needed I updated my ipad2 with iOS5 but few of my dashbaords are not working now can any one let me know how to downgrade the OS

    Help needed I updated my ipad2 with iOS5 but few of my dashbaords (HTML5) are not working now ,can any one let me know how to downgrade the OS as we have a meeting coming up .. its urgent

    Downgrading the iOS is not supported. If you are using Safari this try clearing its cache via Settings > Safari.
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    How can I get my ipad2 with os5 to Kodak wireless printer esp9.

    Airprint won't work with the Kodak printers because Kodak does not support Airprint.  You'll need to check in the App store to see if Kodak makes a printing app for the iPad.  Otherwise, there are a number of third party printing apps.  People have used Printopia, Print n Share, and Print Central with good results.

  • HT4623 one day before,i update my iphone5 system,but i really don't like the operation,i want change back to ios6.1.4,what can i do?

    one day before,i update my iphone5 system,but i really don't like the operation,i want change back to ios6.1.4,what can i do?

    OK, I downloaded the utility, but during the installation process I was advised to shut down Outlook, or restart it after installation. I immediately cancelled the installation. Obviously, this thing is going to muck about with Outlook. I don't want anything to be touching or looking at any of my installed program unless I tell it too AFTER I fully understand what it is doing and how to reverse the whole process in case it gets mucked up.
    I looked for a manual or some sort of documentation on the configuration utility, but there does not seem to be any.
    Anyone have a link to program documentation for
    iPhone Configuration Utility 3.6.2  for Windows?
    I find it incredilble that there does not seem to be a stand alone, plug the usb cable in, and make a back up (system image) of an iPhone. After all, the thing seems to be hand held computer. Why not have a simple back up utility? Even the newer phones only have, what, a few GB. Lots of images would fit on an outboard TB disk.
    Then if every thing gets FUBAR, simply restore the phone the the last working image.
    Does no one keep controled squential backups of iPhones and iPads like you should do with any other computer, workstation or laptop that is a serious business tool?
    iTunes for back-up. Does and business seriously do that?
    iCloud? I'd be fired if the boss caught me putting client contact information on 'the cloud' or anything outside my secured hard drives. (Unless we have a specific paid contract for services).
    My company does not even allow wifi in the office. Security begins with a hard wired connection.
    sigh....

  • HT3799 I want to install Adobe Reader for an attachment that I cannot open.  The Keychain comes up with password.  I forgot my password how do I retrieve it?

    I want to install Adobe Reader for an attachment that I cannot open.  The Keychain comes up with password.  I forgot my password how do I retrieve it?

    You must back up all data before continuing, unless you've already done so. If you need to back up but can't log in, ask for instructions.
    If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    Otherwise*, boot into Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window opens.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.
    *Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead these instructions.

  • HT201441 please help me try to contact the owner of this phone IMEI ****  ICCID **** i got his phone now with me but i dont know how to contact them first time

    A long shot but you might try using the phone to send an email to the phone asking the owner to call their mobile phone.  If the owner has a computer they may get the email and get in contact with you.
    But Roger's suggerstion of turning it over to the police is the best bet.

    Hi dreamafrombartow,
    I hope you are able to get your pictures back. Do you have a backup anywhere else?

  • How can I retrieve data on a time machine if I have forgotten the password?

    How can I retrieve data on a time machine if I have forgotten the password?

    There are so many passwords.. which one do you mean?
    TC password or disk password in the TC.. no problem.. soft reset.
    Or recover the password.. via the Tesserax method.
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3372
    If you encrypted the backup in TM and have forgotten that password you are doomed.. there is no way to recover it I know of.. there is a warning.. very clear.. do not forget the password.

  • I recently removed an outlook account and now all of my calendar events are missing. The majority of them were added from my iphone 4s. How do I retrieve the events? Backing up with iCloud did not help, as I assumed it would.

    I recently removed an outlook account and now all of my calendar events are missing. The majority of them were added from my iphone 4s. How do I retrieve the events? Backing up with iCloud did not help, as I assumed it would.

    Outlook is a mail client for PC's (and Macs). It is not a type of account. Do you mean an "Exchange Account"?
    If so, then re-add it. The calendar events live on the Exchange Server. The only way to get them back is to re-add the account to the phone. The contents of Exchange and IMAP accounts are not part of the 'backup' as they already exist elsewhere.
