iPhone locked notes cracking

[Lincolnshire]

Hello,

My iPhone has recently stopped allowing me to use my Face ID to unlock my locked notes - I cannot for the life of me remember my password. I have tried all the usual tricks to unlock it but to no avail. My only
choice is to use hashcat. 

Is there anyone in Lincolnshire or near to there that has hashcat and knows what they are doing and could unlock my notes please? My password is highly likely to be One upper case, the rest lower case with a number and special character. 

I will obviously be happy to pay - I just really need my notes. 

Thank you.

Thank you for your comment - I am obviously new to this site.

How would I go about contacting the admin direct? Thank you.

The answer you had was a spam, you can ignore it.

I can't try myself, but you could backup your iphone to pc, extract AppDomainGroup-group.com.apple.notes from backup file, find NoteStore.sqlite and extract hash with john the ripper applenotes2john.py , as I can't test it myself, no idea if it would work.

Hello -

I have bought a computer and have recently completed an full iphone back up through Itunes.

Where do I find NoteStore.sqlite???

I have located the backup within the computer file but no NoteStore.sqlite to be seen.

Please help.

**Update**

I currently have NoteStore.sqlite and applenotes2john saved on my computer.

I also have Johntheripper downloaded and working.

How do I put the files above into Johntheripper to get it to start cracking?

Thanks!

You need to install python, then you can use applenotes2john.py NoteStore.sqlite > hash.txt

Then you can use john.exe hash.txt to crack the hash or modify hash to work with hashcat.

I have Python installed - What exactly do I need to type into Python to make it work?

[lapsikmees]

If python on path, python applenotes2john.py NoteStore.sqlite > hash.txt

NoteStore.sqlite has to be same folder as applenotes2john.
