Q: Will I lock myself out if I forgot my backup encryption password?
I upgraded my phone and want to use iTunes to restore the data from my old phone to the new one. I can't remember the encryption password, but I think I'll figure it out eventually. If I make too many attempts with an incorrect password, will I lock myself out? I know my all of my other passwords, so this is really frustrating.
iPhone 6s, iOS 9.2.1

No, that is the one password that you can keep trying until you hit on it (or not) .
Best of luck,
