  I wonder if you first need to delete any existing encrypted

  Backups before trying a new backup.

   

  Maybe worth calling Apple Accessibility for assistance.

  I just tried this and was unable to get it to work.  When I tried to uncheck 
encrypted backup I was prompted to enter my password.  I am running Itunes 
12.0.1.26 and the latest IOS 8.

  Charles, thanks for this, but it does raise two questions.

   

  One. Is the old password still active? It doesn’t seem that it is asking you 
to change it, just adding another one.

   

  Two. If number one is true, which password will it want when you try to 
restore from that backup? I assume it will act on the last one you created, but 
it would be too bad if this is not true and it still wants the original one.

  Out of curiosity, seeing as I will be getting an iPhone 6 soon, I tried your 
second suggestion with my iPhone 5 connected to the PC.  Your idea works like a 
charm.  I am using iTunes 12.1.3, and the instructions have not changed.  After 
doing the unincrypted backup, when you recheck the box to encrypt, it asks you 
for a password.  Enter it, and tab once.  You are asked to confirm the 
password, which you do.  Then tab to the OK button, and the backing up process 
begins.

    rhs,

     

    The last item in the Backup section of the iTunes Summary tab when your 
device has focus is a Change Password button. Ah, I just executed it and see 
that it first asks for the old password so that is no good.

     

    just above the Change Password button is a tickbox labeled Encrypt iPhone 
backup. I would recommend that you uncheck this box and do an unencrypted 
backup an then go back and check the encrypted backup box to do a new encrypted 
backup where I expect it will prompt you for a new password.

     

    I'm using iTunes for Windows version 11.4.x so if you have iTunes 12, the 
instructions might differ.

     

    Good luck.

    Subject: I forgot my encrypted backup password

     

    Hi,

     

    I cannot remember the password I set when I set up to have encrypted 
backups made to my computer.  I’ve tried the ideas I can think of for what my 
password might have been and none worked.  Fortunately, I do not need to 
restore anything to my phone.  However, I want to fix the problem before it 
becomes an emergency.

     

    Is there a way I can start over with encrypted backups with a new password? 
 

     

    Thanks
