I have a backup of this iPad from about 3 years ago, but I’d like to know the following:ġ) Can I perform a backup now without the passcode via iTunes? What I mean by this is having the latest possible backup, so remembering the passcode stops being an issue. I’ve used two attempts so far and then stopped trying for fear of making the situation worse. Thank you!įorgotten passcode / backup / device restore I forgot my old iPad 2 (from 2011) pass code. If anyone has a recommendation for any data recovery software program they have used and had success with I would greatly appreciate it. Yes, I know, I'm kicking myself for it now. Unfortunately the factory reset is my only option since I was not using iCloud, and I did not connect my phone to my laptop at any point over the past two years that I've had it, therefore never backing it up to iTunes. I'm fine with wiping the phone, I just want to be able to retrieve my photos/videos as I have a four year old and a six year old (even more reason why I should have been utilizing the cloud, I know, I know), but there are so many data recovery software options and I'm leery of what is legit and what isn't.
I spoke with Apple support and they informed me that I will have to do a factory reset in order to remove the passcode. I attempted several more versions of what I thought I could have possibly changed it to, got the "1 minute/5 minute/15 minute/1 hour" disabled warnings, and am now at the point where I have one attempt left at guessing this fricken passcode before my phone is disabled indefinitely. I frantically tried a few more times in disbelief that I had entered the new code incorrectly or somehow mistaken what I thought I changed it to, and ended up deactivating my touch ID by doing so. Right after changing it I tried testing the new passcode and was not able to unlock my phone using that code.
I'm looking for a recommendation for a specific iPhone data recovery software, preferably one that someone has had success retrieving photos with after performing a factory reset on an iPhone without a backup.Įmbarrassing backstory- I changed the passcode on my iphone 6s a couple days ago.
