恢复您的iPhone屏幕时间或限制密码(支持iOS 14)
本指南将帮助您实现的目标
难度 :容易
步骤 :最多5个
所需时间 :5分钟
自iOS 2以来,我们一直在讨论iOS限制密码的更改。经验告诉我们,在每个主要的iOS版本中,Apple至少对该机制进行了一些更改,并且iOS 12中的Screen Time的发布增加了更多强大的功能。我们一直坚持这一点,iPhone Backup Extractor能够从任何版本的iOS上的任何 Apple设备上恢复或删除“屏幕时间”密码或限制密码。
如果您忘记了iPad或iPhone的屏幕时间密码并需要它来防止意外的应用程序内购买,或者如果您需要删除不需要的应用程序但不能,我们已经为您提供保障!
忘记iPhone的屏幕时间或限制密码?
忘记密码可能发生在任何人身上,特别是如果这些是您不经常更改的设置。如果您发现自己被锁定在“限制”设置之外该怎么办?
幸运的是,有一些方法可以检索您的限制设置,而无需将iPhone恢复为新设备或将其破解。任何人都被告知这很困难,或者“你需要通过iTunes将你的iPhone恢复为新设备”应该继续阅读!
如何在iOS 14(或13)上禁用屏幕时间密码
该过程将在iOS设备上(以及(可选)在其他所有iOS设备和具有相同Apple ID的Mac上)禁用“屏幕时间”。它还会重置密码,因此,如果重新启用了“屏幕时间”,系统将提示您选择一个新密码。
下载并安装适用于Windows或Mac的iPhone Backup Extractor ,然后打开它。
使用USB电缆将iPhone或iPad连接到计算机,然后从iPhone Backup Extractor的左侧菜单中选择它。
在iPhone Backup Extractor中选择“实用程序”选项卡,然后单击“屏幕时间恢复”。这将打开一个向导,提示您进行下一步。
该向导将提示您在
Settings
→[iCloud account name]
→Find My
→Find my iPhone
临时禁用iPhone在Apple上的Apple的“查找我”服务。您需要输入Apple ID密码才能执行此操作。该过程完成后,您将可以重新启用它。 (请注意, 无需从iCloud帐户中删除设备 。)点击“让我们开始”按钮。片刻之后,手机将重新启动,并且一旦完成,您的手机将不再启用“屏幕时间”密码。
这是一段视频,显示手机已完成重启。重新启动时,也会在Mac上也禁用“屏幕时间”。
这样,您就完成了。
ps。不要忘记在设备的“设置”菜单中重新启用“查找我”。 👍
如何通过还原旧的备份来在iOS 14或13上恢复屏幕时间密码
确保您最近有加密的 iPhone备份 。
在继续之前,请在
Settings
→[iCloud account name]
→Find My
→Find my iPhone
关闭“查找我的iPhone”使用USB线将手机连接到iTunes,然后单击“恢复iPhone ...”。这将触发iTunes下载手机的最新固件,然后再擦除并更新。在执行此操作之前,备份是非常重要的。
iTunes将仔细检查您是否有最近的备份:
固件升级完成后,iTunes将要求您选择要还原的备份。选择您之前创建的备份并将其还原。恢复后,您的手机将如何 - 但没有屏幕时间密码。
如何在iOS 12上恢复屏幕时间密码
您需要iPhone或iCloud备份来检索iPhone的限制密码。确保在电话上应用了限制PIN后创建了备份。
下载并安装适用于Windows或Mac的iPhone Backup Extractor ,然后打开它。
确保您具有加密的 iTunes备份或iCloud备份。 (iPhone Backup Extractor可以从加密的 iTunes备份中恢复“屏幕时间”密码,或者从iTunes或iCloud备份中恢复较早的限制密码。如果您的备份未加密,则密码不会存储在其中。)
如果您想使用iCloud备份而不是iTunes备份,请使用本指南了解如何在计算机上下载它。如果您想使用iCloud备份来获取限制密码,则需要许可证 。下载文件后,iPhone备份提取程序可以像任何常规iTunes备份文件一样使用它。
在应用程序的左侧,您将看到备份列表。选择带有密码的备份。
转到“实用工具”菜单,单击“恢复屏幕时间/限制密码”,然后单击“开始”按钮并等待。
然后按“开始”按钮,它将开始恢复屏幕时间限制代码。
几秒钟后,您的iOS屏幕时间密码或限制密码将被恢复。出于演示目的,下面的屏幕截图中恢复的PIN是
1234
,但这应该是您忘记的密码。
故障排除屏幕时间密码恢复
如果屏幕时间恢复选项显示为灰色或您无法恢复代码,则可能有以下几种原因:
您没有备份。这很容易解决: 使用iTunes制作免费且快速。
您的备份未加密。屏幕时间密码仅存储在加密备份中。这很容易修复:进入iTunes,勾选“加密此备份”框,然后点击“立即备份”。
iPhone备份提取程序仍在加载您的备份。 “恢复屏幕时间密码”菜单项将显示为灰色,直到备份完全加载。
密码在父设备上可用。如果您已在设备上设置密码以在您孩子的设备上强制执行屏幕时间,我们发现有时密码只能从孩子设备的备份中恢复。我们正在调查此问题。

找出丢失的屏幕时间密码的提示
如果您被提示输入一个您不记得设置的屏幕时间密码,我们可以尝试一些技巧。
尝试使用
0000
作为密码。我们已经从提示输入代码但没有设置代码的用户那里阅读了不少报告,而这往往适用于他们。如果用户坚持说他们没有设置屏幕时间密码,有时会报告他们的“ 引导访问 ”密码有效。值得一试。
更改手机上的时间以允许自己尝试更多密码。如果你被禁止再试几分钟,那么将时间缩短一小时。这会让你重试。
Apple的典型解决方案是彻底清除手机并重新开始。如果您的备份早于添加屏幕时间密码,则恢复此密码将删除它。但是,您也会丢失在此期间创建的任何消息或数据。
它是如何工作的,以及如何免费手动恢复限制密码!
如果您精通技术并且认为您可以设法手动修改自己修改限制Plist
,那么这里是我们关于如何使用免费版iPhone备份提取器重置限制代码的指南。
根据设备上iOS的版本,限制密码的处理方式不同,并存储在不同的位置。 iPhone备份提取器会自动捆绑所有这些内容,但重要的是要知道您是否手动执行此操作。我们来看看历史。
的iOS | Plist,SHA-1哈希和注释 | |
---|---|---|
13-14岁以上 | 迁移到“屏幕时间”。仅删除。 | |
12 | 迁移到“屏幕时间”。仅恢复。 | |
7-12 | com.apple.restrictionspassword.plist , 398bc9c2aeeab4cb0c12ada0f52eea12cf14f40b | |
5-6 | com.apple.springboard.plist , 662bc19b13aecef58a7e855d0316e4cf61e2642b 仅重设 | |
1-4 | com.apple.springboard.plist , 662bc19b13aecef58a7e855d0316e4cf61e2642b |
适用于iOS 12及更高版本的说明
随着iOS 12的发布,Apple将限制密码数据迁移到iPhone上一个更安全的位置,而另一个则无法共享手动指令。手动恢复太复杂了,但我们已经构建了自iOS 12测试版以来将屏幕时间限制恢复到iPhone备份提取器的功能。
iOS 7 - 11的说明
iOS 7及更高版本使用PBKDF2
对密码进行哈希处理,这需要一些解密。
您可以使用与早期版本的iOS相同的步骤,但您需要获取com.apple.restrictionspassword.plist
。
一旦你得到它,找到这些值:
<key>RestrictionsPasswordKey</key> <data>...</data> <key>RestrictionsPasswordSalt</key> <data>...</data>
密钥和盐来自您的PIN与PBKDF2
,并且相对容易用蛮力解读。只有10,000种组合!
适用于iOS 4及更低版本的说明
步骤1.提取com.apple.springboard.plist
文件
打开iPhone备份提取器后,单击“专家模式”选项卡。这将打开一个资源管理器窗口,您可以在其中查看iTunes或iCloud备份中的所有文件。要查找com.apple.springboard.plist
文件,请导航到Home Domain
→ Library
→ Preferences
。
此文件夹中的文件列表是按字母顺序排列的,因此应该很容易找到。找到后,勾选上述文件旁边的框,然后单击“提取”按钮。然后,系统会要求您保存文件,将其解压缩到易于查找的位置,就像桌面一样。
步骤2.打开com.apple.springboard.plist
文件
让我们打开Plist
使用iPhone备份提取的内置的plist编辑器。这可以在File
→ View / Edit Plist
下的菜单中找到。单击它,然后选择您之前提取的Plist。
步骤3.查看“SBParentalControlsPin”又名“限制密码”
扫描文件,直到到达<key>SBParentalControlsPin</key>
的行:它下面的行应该读取类似<string>1234</string>
。
记下此号码,并在请求“限制密码”时将其输入iPhone。 Voilà,您现在应该可以完全访问丢失的“限制”设置!

常见问题
Why does Apple make it difficult to reset / disable this passcode -- why can't it be done via iCloud?
We believe it is to cater for users who don't set up an iCloud Family Sharing unit with their kids, but instead give them their own iPhone with their own iCloud account. Short of separately being able to register a parent on TouchID or FaceID, a secondary code is needed, as the child would have full access to their own iCloud settings.
It's also helpful to use a passcode rather than an iCloud account where these restrictions are applied en masse via MDM across many devices where there isn't a parent as such, such as on a school or company's devices. It's not just for restricting access for children using the device.
When the family are tied together in an iCloud Family share it would be possible. However, users would always need the option of some sort of passcode override for times when it matters: like being on a long journey with the family where there's no Internet. Most of the world doesn't have Wi-Fi during flights, for instance, so without a code it wouldn't be possible to change Family Sharing settings.

Do I need to download this file to the device that is locked or can i download it to my macbook air
回复: Reincubate Support
Hi Monica, iPhone Backup Extractor runs on your MacBook Air. And on any PC.
由 Jonathan Yeager
This has been changed, and should be updated. The file for to find your restrictions passcode is
com.apple.restrictionspassword.plist
. everything else is the same.Thanks for reminding us Jonathan, we've updated it!
由 Naima
I've tried this step by step but when I try to extract the
com.apple.springboard.plist
file an error pops up saying "Key Not Found" exception? Anyone have any ideas what I should do?回复: Reincubate Support
Hi Naima, we'd recommend using the Restrictions Passcode recovery wizard instead of doing it manually. You can get into that click clicking "Restrictions passcode recovery" from the overview screen. Reach out if you get stuck!
由 Misty
OMG!! I have been trying for months to find my code that if didn't know I set... got a new phone and realized that it automatically put it in the new phone! Thanks you so much for solving this problem that not even Verizon could help with!!!
由 Chris
If this is legit I'm more than willing to pay for a service that fixes Apple's constant security SNAFUs. Being able to recover your phone after a long forgotten password gets activated by a mandatory update? Priceless.
Almost a shame that I finally got fed up with them and switched to Android devices after the whole 'proprietary headset' fiasco.
由 Dom
@BEJI yes i have used this method with my iphone with iOS v9.3.3 However the plist file didn't have that line of code in it, even though my iphone asked for a passcode like others here have found. You simply add this following line in that
com.apple.springboard.plist
file:then save it and then restore it to your iphone from within the program you used to extract it.
After this, the passcode pin will be 1234. BTW you can use your own 4 digits in the above code, just change the pin in the above code between the
<string></string>
tags to what ever you want it to be, then use that pin code after it has been added to thecom.apple.springboard.plist
file, saved and then restored to the iphone.The code is exactly the same as shown in the photo in the above instructions paragraph titled "Viewing the "SBParentalControlsPin" aka the "Restrictions Passcode""

由 Cheri
I have forgotten my son's ipad restrictions password to keep him from buying things. I now cannot remember it! If I download this software, will it actually recover the restrictions password without having to pay? My son has an ipad air running ios 8. I will be so happy if you can help me, as my son is autistic and needs his ipad!! Thank You!! ~Cheri
回复: Reincubate Support
Hi Cheri, thanks for commenting. The steps in this guide show how to remove it using the free version of our app. It's a fairly involved process. If you buy the app it can do it automatically all in one go for you. 👩💻
由 Mario Bario
The free edition will not recover the restriction passcode. One must buy the Home pr Pro edition to do so.
由 Saeed
Hi there, I've backed up my iPhone 5 operating ios8. As my backup is encrypted and I've forgotten my password. Now when I'm resorting my iPhone from backed up file it asking me a password and I don't remember that. Is this software restore the backup file if it's encrypt and you don't know the password for it.
Thank you regards

Hi Saeed, thanks for your comment. We've got a guide on recovering lost backup passwords. Check it out!
由 Irene Moumeni
I have an iPhone 4 and my son was fooling around with the cell phone and deleted my iTunes app and App Store and out some restriction passcode that he forgot. Is there any way if fixing the problem without deleting all my downloads that I paid money for. Can you help me with this problem? I really would appreciate your expert advice. Thank you.

thnx alot man ... i could restore because putting all jailbreak data is hard
由 Jocelyn Alexia
What if we dont have a computer and want to reset your iPad
回复: Reincubate Support
Hi Jocelyn, short of simply erasing your device and setting it up as new, there's no way to do this without using a PC or Mac.
由 Mark Domaille
Hi,
I use forensic software to examine mobile phones, and can recover the
restrictionspassword.plist
file with this software. I note that the passcode set for restrictions is not in clear text in this document - does it need to be decrypted? I know what it is as I set it as a test device, but it is not visible in this file. I would be happy to download your software if I can satisfy myself that it would be able to recover the passcode for 'restrictions'回复: Reincubate Support
Hi Mark, thanks for commenting. It's nice to hear from the police! From iOS 7 onwards it's a PBKDF2 hash that's used. We'd be happy to jump on a screen share with you if you move forward with the license. 🕵️♀️
由 Abraham
Hey I'm sure only you could have the answer to this.. Can I extract my Instagram password from the backup file?

<key>SBParentalControlsPin</key>
even though I do have a restrictions passcode set. Help!回复: Reincubate Support
Hi Lisa, you'll see the instructions are a little different for iOS 7 and above. Given the complexity of how it's done, we'd recommend you use iPhone Backup Extractor to automate recovery of the key. Reach out if you need help!

由 YourSavior
For those of you on iOS 5.1.1 you can reset your 4-digit Restrictions passcode with very little effort if your device is jailbroke (no reason not to... check out Absinthe to do it). Get yourself a copy of iFile (available through Cydia) and you can do this right from the phone. No PC or other software required. From within iFile you just browse to
/var/mobile/Library/Preferences
and opencom.apple.springboard.plist
using the built in text viewer. Click the edit button to make changes, then add the following into a new line:Save the file changes by selecting Done, then Respring the device. Voila! Your Restrictions passcode is now set to
1234
.由 hrgh1985
very easy You can just delete the file
/var/Keychains/keychain-2.db
and/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/com.apple.springboard.plist
hrgh1985 - from iran
回复: Reincubate Support
Yes, that'd work if you're on a jailbroken iPhone or iPad. Most users aren't, though!

由 mi
dear Andy (or who ever else might know);
I completed all those steps and like an idiot, I didn't read the comments in advance- so no, it doesn't work, because I use software version 5.1.
(and I don't have any older backupversions lying around in my pc that I am aware of)
instead of just giving me the feckin pin already, it just tells me
<key>SBParentalControlsEnabled</key> <bool>True</bool>
Is there any new information you could provide me with? I would be loathe to lose all my data in a possibly futile attempt to retrieve this code.
回复: Reincubate Support
Hi Mi! Instead of doing the patch manually, it might make your life easier if you use iPhone Backup Extractor to do it automatically for you. It'll save time and avoid the risk of a mistake. 🙂
由 blake
this worked amazing i was up to nine failed attempts i was scared i would lock the phone for good and doing the steps took me a minute to figure out how to get the plist to open or save right but i got it thank you so much
回复: Reincubate Support
Great!
由 Justin
I can not seem to get it to work with mine either. Has anyone figured out how to find the password with the iOS 5.1.1, this is really frustrating. I really need help.
回复: Reincubate Support
Hi Justin, if you're struggling to make it work manually, why not use iPhone Backup Extractor to do it automagically for you? 🙂
由 Andijansky
Great dude, thnx a loads! u saved me trouble! genuine! u should make it more accessible, cuz I saw millions of others just choosing to restore by losing some data

Thank you! ❤️
由 Brian
Awesome! Worked great, thanks!
由 Jane
Thank you!!! Like a dummy I set a different restriction code than the passcode to unlock the phone. Your solution worked great!
由 Nathan Bracken
I figured how to do it for IOS 5.1 But it is kind of complicated and takes a couple restores
由 Delta
This is definitely not working for IOS5.1, the
SBParentalControlsPin
is not inside thecom.apple.springboard.plist
回复: Reincubate Support
Check out the latest update to iPhone Backup Extractor -- it'll do it for you.

doc but I cannot find theSBParentalControlsPin
in the springboard plist file after upgrading to iOS 5!! Plz help!! Is it not available any more? @Andy plz help you sound smart!!回复: Reincubate Support
No problem. If you try the latest version of iPhone Backup Extractor it should handle it automatically for you.

由 chris
fantastically easy tks
由 Lars
Hmmm, I cannot find the
SBParentalControlsPin
in the springboard plist file after upgrading to iOS 5. It seems Apple have removed it for better security.Anybody have a clue on what to do then?
回复: Reincubate Support
We've tested whether
SBParentalControlsPin
is still stored incom.apple.springboard.plist
file on iOS 5 and found it still is -- if you had updated to iOS 5 then restored data from a previous backup (non-iOS 5). Once removed/re-added iOS 5 no longer stores the restrictions passcode in thecom.apple.springboard.plist
file.Remember that the
SBParentalControlsPin
is not present if the backup you are looking at had noSBParentalControlsPin
enabled.Do not confuse this with the passcode to access your iPhone when locked.
We have noticed during the iOS 5 update that the general Passcode becomes set to disabled and the Restriction Passcode is enabled in some instances. It's a bug in iOS 5, if you've added the Restriction Passcode in the past (even if turned off pre-update) it could turn on. We haven't confirmed this happens if you have never set your Restriction Passcode.
You'll see we've updated iPhone Backup Extractor to support this newer version.
由 Joan
It works on iOS 5. Thanks God, finally I know my restriction code...and does not need to restore to factory setting and enter contact one by one again!! Thanks so much professionals!
由 Greg
I am using 4.3.5 and followed the guide exactly and I only see
<key>
locked unlocked can anyone help回复: Reincubate Support
@Greg: the instructions will work on iOS 4.3.5, you should see your restrictions pin a few tags above the
<locked-unlocked>
tags as something like:Unless you haven't added a restrictions PIN and you are referring to the phone PIN. That's different, and isn't not available to view in the same way.
由 Serg
Great!! Thanks!
由 yoshif8tures
awesome, works great, thanks alot!
由 Fletcher
Worked a charm. It took me a while though to figure it all out, here are some thoughts:
You don't need to connect your device to the computer, the program searches and uses your computer's iphone/ipod/ipad backup folder.
You don't necessarily need the computer which you normally sync your iPhone/iPod with. Any one with iTunes will do, although you'll have to back up your device to this "new" computer first (just connect it, open iTunes, right click, backup - You won't lose any data)
Do the above if you don't see your iPhone on the list in the Extractor Program. You need to have a backup present on this computer, that's what the Extractor Program searches.
There are multiple springboard files though, so for those like me who couldn't find it first time, I followed this path:
com.apple.springboard.plist
Great guide, no downloads, no nothing needed, plain and simple.
由 Taco10
Thanks this worked great. Helped me a lot. Thanks a ton!!
由 Sina
This was neat! worked perfectly! Thanks a lot!
由 Sarah
Tried this, worked BRILLIANTLY. For some reason when I saved it in desktop, the plist wouldnt open, just went to system32. After saving to my documents, tried again, the list came up and there was my code. Thank you. Really, thank you. You've saved me a restore.
