Fix Forgot iTunes Backup Password


1 Erase the Password by Resetting All Settings

As mentioned above, you cannot restore your encrypted backup if you don't have the password. The easiest solution to this is to reset the password and then make a new encrypted backup of your device. This method works on iOS 11 or later:


Open Settings app on your iOS device.


Navigate to General > Reset and then tap Reset All Settings option. You will need to input your iOS passcode to proceed.


After inputting your iOS passcode, follow the on-screen instructions to start the reset process.



Note: This reset method will not erase your data or passwords. It will only reset various device settings such as display brightness, wallpaper, Home screen layout, etc. It will also erase your encrypted backup password. After reset, connect your iDevice to iTunes and create a new encrypted backup.

Cons


This method only erases the backup password. You still cannot use the previous encrypted backup.


The method only works on iOS 11 and later. It doesn't work on iOS 10 or earlier. For those devices, you must use iCloud backup or use an older iTunes backup when you forgot the iTunes encrypted backup password.
