A few weeks ago, my husband carelessly left his backpack  sitting on the train 
platform.  Two stations later, he realised what had happened and immediatiely 
went back to the start: but too late. The phone was gone. The very helpful 
conductors helped us lock the phone, and then we started a search to find the 
phone.   And we did  find the phone 2 days later, and got it back. 

Unfortunately, my husband couldn’t remember the Passcode. It was all numbers in 
some kind of mathematical array. The phone is on the family plan, so I am the 
person who has to fix it. 

I looked on the internet to see how to change the passcode, but most (or all) 
remedies involve erasing the phone (there is no  back up). 

I would like to know if uploading that data to the Cloud or the App Store in 
order to change the passcode also will erase the data, or would it be possible 
to see what is there, so we could replace it?
