My colleague's child has put a restriction on her phone and they don't know the password. She has tried O2 who spoke with Apple, without success. She doesn't want to lose her contacts list which is what would have happened if she followed their advice.


Can anyone recommend a solution please?

I have done this for a colleague.


The iPhone should back up every time it connects it iTunes.


Use this Windows program - http://www.iphonebackupextractor.com - and then these instructions - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2667637?start=60&tstart=0.


Passcode location is shown on this image here -:

Should be fine.


Edit to add - have just noticed that this does not work post-iOS5.


As we restored from iOS4 try to find a backup dated between 21 Jun 2010 and the iOS5 update in Oct 2011. Sorry.

    • I've been using Homecert for all my electrical work at my flat in London for several years.  They have done small jobs like this one ( fitting a new security light to the patio) and big ones like fitting a new consumer unity, and also tricky ones like investigating and sorting out a problematic power circuit. They are extremely reliable and efficient and the work is always of a very high quality. Communications with the office are, in addition, excellent. Their work is economically reasonable and properly costed. I cannot see myself bothering with any other London electricians as long as Homecert exists
