Is this an encrypted backup for a device running iOS 11? If soyou can reset your Encryption password without having to erase your phone:


If you can’t remember the password for your encrypted backup

You can’t restore an encrypted backup without its password. With iOS 11 or lateryou can make a new encrypted backup of your device by resetting the password. Here’s what to do:

  1. On your iOS devicego to Settings > General > Reset.
  2. Tap Reset All Settings and enter your iOS passcode.
  3. Follow the steps to reset your settings. This won't affect your user data or passwordsbut it will reset settings like display brightnessHome screen layoutand wallpaper. It also removes your encrypted backup password.
  4. Connect your device to iTunes again and create a new encrypted backup.

You won't be able to use previous encrypted backupsbut you can back up your current data using iTunes and setting a new backup password.


Turn off iTunes backup encryption

To turn off iTunes backup encryptionuncheck the Encrypted backup box in iTunes and enter the password.

  1. On your iOS devicego to Settings > General > Reset.
  2. Tap Reset All Settings and enter your iOS passcode.
  3. Follow the steps to reset your settings. This won't affect your user data or passwordsbut it will reset settings like display brightnessHome screen layoutand wallpaper. It also removes your encrypted backup password.
