So its not really fair that we can’t recover a password and i want my pictures and memories back ..

all the applications have a way to resolve a problem, this is really important but its a bug for apple ! Because always should be a way for password recovery especially in this situation because people want their backups so badly, like me ... and there is no way ..

It's an encrypted backup... meant to protect you from having any random person plug into your computer and restore from said backup and gain access to all your personal information... what would be the point of having encryption if you can reset the password for it and gain access. That means if someone stole your computer and then plugged and iPhone into it, they could restore from a backup and gain access to everything on your accounts and your device. It's security, its there for a reason, whether or not you think "it's not fair" isn't the point.
