Encrypted backup, no password

Hi everyone, hoping you can help me...

iPhone 6s was damaged and fell into the water.  Screen completely black, but still able to answer calls by hitting swiping and using earphones.  If anything.

We have arranged for a replacement by Telstra Stay Connected.

I managed to save the damaged phone ("blindly") on another computer, however "encrypted" "" was already checked and there was no prompt to create a password.

So we have now a full and perfect backup stuck inside my computer, but cannot be accessed without this password of mystery.

Also, without this password that I can't turn off the encryption option to create a new backup off the old phone.

Please let me know what are my options?  The damaged phone screen is completely black.  The backup is encrypted.  We have less than 2 weeks to return the phone to Telstra.

Thanking you in advance...

The more "common" passwords that have worked are 'Apple' and '1234 '.

You have access to a computer for which you have backed up the phone?

    How can I disable iTunes backup encryption?

    To disable iTunes backup encryption, enter the password and uncheck backup encrypted in iTunes. Password encryption is always necessary to turn off encryption of backup.

    You cannot use a backup encrypted if you do not have the password. If you have forgotten your password, the only way to turn off encryption on the backup device is to wipe your device and set up as new. Clear deletes all data on your device. If you don't want to erase your device, restore from a backup instead.

  • How to kill encrypted backups? (new iPad)

    Years, I lost my password to my encrypted iPad backup. Apple says that "so much worse so sad' and so I can't get/encrypted backup control for the iPad. So, what should I do when I get a new iPad? Please don't tell me that the poisoned atmosphere is postponed to a new device! I'll be able to restore what does get saved without screwing things up?

    Without the password, you cannot restore the encrypted backup, so will have to put in place the new device as new from scratch anyway.  Do not enable backups on this new device and you'll be fine.

    The requirement for encryption would only "carried on" for the new device if you know the password and where to restore the backup encrypted on the new device.

  • How to remove iphone backup current password (do not remember) and set a new?

    I want to backup my iPhone 5 s before installing the next update of the os, but don't remember the password encrypted backup. I would like to delete the previous backups and the password and create a new backup with a new password. How do I do that?

    You can't do it. If you could it would be a huge security hole. Your choice is to guess the password, or to save on iCloud (which is automatically encrypted using the phone built in encryption).

    If you want to try guessing click 'Change password' in iTunes, as it ask the password immediately. You get unlimited assumptions. If you're like most people, it's a password you have used in the past.

  • If I use FileVault, do I need to encrypt backups Time Machine?

    My main hard drive on my MBP is encrypted with Filevault - that said, is it still necessary to encrypt backups in Time Machine preferences?  The option of my Time Capsule is actually grayed, so I guess I have to format the Time Capsule disk... but that is still necessary?  I guess I'm good with just FileVault enabled, on the Mac?

    No, there is no need to encrypt TM back ups when your Mac has active FileVault.

    Encryption of TM is separate and is kind of FileVaulting like the back of TM ups. If you feel you want your back ups as safe from prying eyes, as you did with your MBP, you can activate the encryption. I do the network back ups to a Mini Mac OS X Server running and have never encrypted them. I can, I elected just don't do it.

  • BitLocker encrypted backups

    My apologies if this double job with other positions. I don't think I've seen the answer in the messages, I searched, but with my knowledge of Bitlocker, I might have seen the answer but not understood.

    I want to keep a backup online disk image. I have a HP Elitebook active Bitlocker with a TPM.

    What I read, Bitlocker uses strong encryption and the only dangers are social engineering or (in some cases) a black hat having physical possession of the laptop. For this reason, I would rather store the version of the backup rather than trusting the security of the online site or the backup program.

    I can do it and, if so, how can I go about it?

    Can I load a standalone program to backup and restore on CD and save volumes encrypted on an external drive? (In other words, is the drive encrypted in a format readable by a backup program?) Can I restore the backup encrypted on the original disc and use it as I did before, or do I have to use the Bitlocker recovery key at some point? Does make a difference if I restore a new physical drive rather than one that is currently on the computer?

    Is there another method that can be better/more/easier but still accomplish the purpose of storing a Bitlocker encrypted backup?

    Or is it a bad idea from the start?

    Thank you.

    You might be able to do, but obviously you cannot be run simultaneously on the same system that you are backing up.  You need to boot from a USB key-CD/DVD and run a backup program.  As you said, since the entire disc is encrypted, it will not do any recognizable file for a backup program system deal with.

    If I read the website, the freeware "Clonezilla" might be able to do what you want.  Because the file system is not recognized, this force the program to create a backup of your drive and your backup will be roughly the same size as your hard drive (whatever it is encrypted does not compress).  So if you have the value of a 300 GB of cloud storage (or whatever is the size of your hard drive is), it might work for you.  In addition, you may need another drive of the same size or larger than your current drive to contain the backup file until you can start on a normal file system and transfer it to the cloud.

    Clonezilla: <> http://clonezilla.org >

    Of course a method much less wieldy would be to create a .zip file of only the files you need to archive and then encrypt this file .zip with GnuPG

    <>http://www.Gpg4win.org >

    GPG (also commercial PGP) existed for a lot longer than BitLocker (at least 20 years), was not known to be compromised and is open-source with many peers (Microsoft cannot claim that).  It uses the same algorithms as the BitLocker encryption.  I personally trust GPG me BitLocker.

  • Everyone is dismayed to see that there is no password recovery or reset secure put in place for encrypted backups?

    I am absolutely amazed that there is no recovery password for iPhone backups encrypted.

    (1) no password is required to access the iTunes application. He launched and the phone connects automatically.

    (2) someone might maliciously put a password. The password for Mac or device using iTunes OSx need at least before setting the encryption password.

    (3) there is no recovery option. None. Tell me: what password-protected sensitive data have NO option of recovery? No secret questions, no e-mail link, no OSx password, nothing. It's horrible.

    I'm in a situation where I remember not the password, and even if I had the foresight to write it somewhere, that the hard copy has disappeared. I suffer a miserable condition where I lose memory. I have reset passwords on all my stuff course often. That's just my new reality.

    I am faced with a situation where if I ever need to restore my device or upgrade to a new, I won't lose all my old texts and local health data in my applications (which is essential for a person with health problems). The loss of memories of conversations for a person who relies on these devices, precisely because I lose my memory is a slap in the face.

    What the risk of COMPUTER audit team approved this feature, Apple? It's quite incredible that a company of your size would be created people to fail like this. Please post a fix in iTunes for password recovery and substitute it. PLEASE, I BEG YOU.

    N ° if there is a way to recover or reset, the encryption would be completely useless.

    Exercise good security practices on the computer where you have installed iTunes and you will not you care about someone maliciously setting a password for backups.

  • can application not available I restore the data from an encrypted backup?

    I had to get my iPhone repaired, so I did a full backup to iTunes and reset Once it was fixed, I have restored the backup, but a few apps "could not be restored. In the case of the one that interests me, the app no longer seems to exist on the App Store - I found a link for it from a review of old, but the link is dead: the app no longer exists. Since it is an application that stores data on the heights of our children, and I had used it for a few years, I would like to be able to recover at least the RAW files of my support, even if the app no longer exists. It is not a large amount of data. The backup is encrypted, so none of the files have names that are meaningful, it is impossible to guess what file is associated with that particular application. Any suggestions?

    If you have the app in the iTunes library on your computer you can restore it from there.

  • Location of encrypted backup itunes

    Yesterday I had to update the issue 4.3.5 firmware of an iPAD2, owned by a friend of the 9.3.1 beta. When I connected to iTunes on my Macbook air, it made the backup (he ate of disk space as a crazy - took maybe 10 GB or more). Now, I returned the unit and want to erase the files backup, but to my surprise the locque/Users / / Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup folder is completely empty. The files are still on my SSD that disk space is much, much lower that before the backup. Where can I find these backups in order to remove them? The iTunes encrypt option has been selected.

    Open iTunes preferences, Devices tab. You should be able to find and delete the backup from there.

  • Encrypted phone, lost password

    Hello

    Suppose that I have to enable encryption on my phone and then lose the password. How to Flash a stock on this firmware?

    Thank you

    2 things are not related.

    If you encrypt your phone and lose your PIN - amnesia is perhaps the theory of the work? Anyway, if you're really stuck, do a hardware reset by using the power and volume buttons. You're not in OS unencrypted storage area will be deleted.

    If you have flashed the phone and it doesn't work - then you are on your own. I would consider asking on a forum showed you how Flash to without share capital.

    We cannot discuss flashing phones. Maybe the Motorola Developer Forum?

  • Unexpected Windows 7 Pro Message on encryption of files, asking Me to back up the encryption key and password

    Have a desktop HP 590 t 2 - months old, Win 7 Pro 64-bit running.  Two days ago, I received an unexpected pop-up Windows message, saying something like "Files EFS in Windows."  When I click on it, I get 3 options:

    1 certificate of encryption and the emergency key and create the password
    2 ask me later
    3. do nothing... If you don't back up your key and the password, you will not be able to access the files.

    What is strange, is that I did nothing (that I know) which would cause no files to encrypt.  I don't know yet what it is, other than what I read in the help Windows.  I called HP Tech Support, they advised me to choose "REMIND ME LATER", that's what I selected.

    After that I turned the computer off yesterday morning, then turned it back last night, I had the same command prompt.  But he appeared at the start, then went off on his own.  I did have to choose anything.

    Since it is a new computer, I was installing software, but legitimate all software, such as Microsoft SQL Server 2008, Dreamweaver, etc..

    Here are my questions:

    1 - is Windows, or could some software I have installed, start encrypting files ON it's OWN?  I thought files could only be encrypted if I expressly and explicitly started encryption of files.

    2. is there a say if all the files on my computer are encrypted?

    3 is it normal that Windows prompts you on file encryption, after so many weeks or months of use?

    4. is there a way to get Windows to stop for prompting me on this subject?

    I read another post where someone said the same thing.  'Out of the blue", they got the same message, I did it.  There was no response to this post.  Appreciate any advice on what it means.  Thank you

    Thanks for the tips.  I think I may know what it is.  It could be the edition of SQL Server 2008 R2 Developer, I had installed recently.  Apparently, it encrypts certain files as part of its operation.  I read where it makes the encryption/decryption of files in real time.  I hope it's something 'internal' for SQL Server and will not affect anything else on my PC.  I use SQL Server 2000 on Windows XP for 10 years and has never seen this message.  Was only my PC Win7 64 bit for 2 months, so am always install software.

    If the OS Win7 can be noticed this and simply prompting me for a key.  I don't know if I should get just a key/password or not, just to be safe.

    But the message popped up when I used an option in a program to copy files to an external flash drive.  I checked, and none of the files on the flash drive, or in the folder root of the program on the desktop are encrypted.  So the time the message appeared might be a coincidence, as the copy of files from the flash drive.

    So far, everything works OK and have only seen the message once more, when I restarted Friday, then the message disappeared on its own.  Have not restarted since then but little time.

    If he continues to appear, will try your suggestion.  Thank you very much

  • Backup BIOS password

    What is the password for hp probook 445 G1 backup BIOS.

    I have never heard of what you're asking.

    You wanted to probably say admin or bassword backdoor password.

    Unfortunately, the class books business, as yours have very strong security.

    Only an HP Service Center or a BIOS company can help by removing the CMOS of the BIOS chip. They will have to replace it with a chip programmed with the appropriate ROM BIOS file which is by default without password.
