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.

    You are talking about the forward, back, mail and trash can icons in the Notes App - correct?
    I've gone through restarting it and followed the instructions from the person last week.
    Have you restarted the iPad - is that what you mean? Have you quit and then restarted the app? Quit the app, and restart the iPad. It's worth a try.
    Double tap the home button and your recent apps will appear at the bottom. Hold down on the Notes app icon until it begins to wiggle. Then tap the minus sign to quit the app. Then tap the screen. Now restart the iPad.
    Carolyn explained this above (restart) but here it is again....
    Hold down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and slide to shut off. Hold down on the sleep button until the Apple logos appears then let go of the button and the iPad will restart. See if that helps.

    I need to upgrade to mac os snow leopard from 10.5.8, and have the lion OS usb. I can't upgrade to snow leopard as my father doesn't remember the admin password.  If anyone can help it would be appreciated

    Restart with the Mac OS X 10.6 DVD in the drive or with the Lion USB drive connected, hold down the Option key just after the restart, tab to the installation disk, and press Enter. If the computer has a firmware password set, it needs to be provided for this to work.

  • Why can't I create a new version of a photo edited in an external application, without Aperture making a new copy of the newly created Tiff?

    When Aperture creates a new version from a RAW file, no new master file is created.  This makes total sense and I understand why.
    When I edit a photo in an external editor (Photoshop CS6) from within Aperture, Aperture creates a Tiff file to edit in Photoshop and saves it along with the RAW original once I have finished editing it in Photoshop.  I understand why this is necessary too.  So far so good.
    But if I then ask Aperture to create a new version from the newly created image edited via Photoshop, it creates another new Tiff.  I can't see why this is necessary.  Aperture should be able to apply further new Aperture edits to the newly created Tiff in the same way that it creates new versions from a RAW file without duplicating the master - by remembering any new 'recipe' changes applied to the Tiff.  It only needs to remember the edits made as the Tiff already now exists.
    Can I stop it creating repeat Tiff files each time I create a new version from the Photoshoped photos?
    Thanks in anticipation.

    Hello Kirby,
    I clicked on the 'Show in Finder' and it revealed a new file called IMG_0961 (1) which goes with the original IMG_0961.CR2 and the edited new tiff created for Photoshop which was called IMG_0961.tiff
    I noticed also that a separate version I had previously created using Canon's DPP stand alone software and titled by me IMG_0961 (DPP).TIF (same thing but from a different original) does not form a new master file when I create a new version of that one.  I've tried this with a few images but when the original is edited in Photoshop via Aperture a second version of the Tiff is created for the 1st version of the image when I create a new version fo it.

  • Why can't I create a new landscape document in Pages on the ipad?

    I can create a keynote landscape page on my iPad. I can create a landscape pages document on my Mac, email to myself, open on the iPad and it is there, yet I cannot create a new landscape document on my ipad, this is crazy?

    Sheila,
    I'm using Version 9.0p230. Windows OS.
    Yes, the COMMANDS pop up does not pop up!
    Yes, I rebooted but I had the same problem. I ended up entering a new name directly in the Character tag field from the Designer and was able to create it that way. Thanks

  • Why can't I create a new multicam clip?

    Just getting started with FCP X (10.0.5).  I have imported from 3 cameras shot at the same time, but the clocks were not necessarily synchronized.
    I select multiple clips, and "Create new multicam clip" menu item is grayed out.  The only time it is available is if I select multiple clips from the same camera which were recorded one right after the other.  I have set camera angle on each clip, and set the "content created" field to approximately the same time. According to the help, they can be different frame rates, resolutions, etc and still be combined to multicam clip.

    OK I knew it was something simple.  The clips have to be in the same event.  Thought I had tried that but apparently not.  Found the answer in another discussion.  I couldn't find anywhere in the documentation that they had to be in the same event, and being new to FCP X wasn't sure the best way to organize multiple cameras.
