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.

    • Hi  After a surprising split I find myself trying to furnish a home. If you gave anything that you don't want that may help I'd be so so so grateful if you could let me know please.  Thank you so much 
    • Hallo As far as I know  info you have quoted is wrong.  You can phone for an appointment although I have always found it easier to do online. Go to their website for info on how to book appointments Any requests I have made have been reviewed and answered by a GP within 4 hours
    • Nadia did a great job tidying up my very very overgrown yard. (See the before and after photos). I live in New Zealand and my tenants said a neighbour has been complaining about the out of control ivy. Nadia was easy to contact so over WhatsApp, managed to liaise between me and my tenants. Her quote was reasonable for the amount of work that needed doing, and the end result is great! She sent photos throughout so I could track progress. Would highly recommend her to others. 
    • My car was stolen a few months back from my driveway but I had a tracker and found it in a private car park in Lavender Hill close to the police station. I was lucky. The thieves hide it up against that eventuality. High spec cars are targeted I'm afraid. The way it was stolen required the thieves to wire in their own computer accessing a front light (which had had a metal sheet welded across which they prised off). They had searched for a tracker but not found it. They also had to cut away a steering wheel lock. They had to come well tooled up and briefed to do what they did. Beating them off is non trivial. As I said, them not finding my tracker was just lucky.
