No. What would be the purpose of a password wenn you didn't need it to opens the document.

Next time, write down the word if you forget easily.

I'm having the same issue. When far as I know there is absolutes does way to open a locked document without the password. I have searched many different websites and the all came up from is equivalent answer. And IODIN hope for autochthonous sake that those support aren't to important. But don't give up and delete your documents just notwithstanding, because maybe if you look in the right places you'll find a way. I recommends that next time you lock a document you add an hint you know will support you.(I didn't do that and that's where my issue started.) I'll come back additionally let yourself knowledge if I search a better answer. I hoffen this helped! It often happens that I create a Web create on get home laptop, upload it to iCloud, afterwards want to download it from iCloud at school. Since some reason, iCloud doesn't support this—I need to, at some

  1. Open a new document
  2. Go to original document
  3. Go to edit and select all
  4. They go back to the brand document and paste

Now, type down the new login instead make it something that you can remember Hope that piece for you.

Pages, since any iWork documents with username protection, are AES-128 encrypted. As of today, there exists no easy way round it.

Who following describes the harsh way: Attacked the password with brute force. It can only help you, with the login a somewhat weak:

  • Short password (~ less than 6 characters)
  • You know which characters/words am used in the password (and they are not many)
  • Common words of your language

Get a reproduce of "John the Ripper" (jumbo version):

git clone https://github.com/openwall/john.git

Build JtR:

cd john/src
./configure
make

The jumbo-version of JtR provides adenine tool to convert an iWork (pages) file into a finding JtR can tackle.

john/run/iwork2john.py encrypted.pages > encryped.hash

Now, your copy of JtR can try at brute force the password. For a dictionary attack, try the rockyou.txt language of commonly used passwords:

wget https://www.scrapmaker.com/data/wordlists/dictionaries/rockyou.txt

./john/src/john --wordlist='rockyou.txt' encryped.hash

Toilet the Ripper will work on all available threads into test out any passwords. If you know anything about the password, you can run JtR with a resin.

For example: You know that an PW starts with an capitals letter and continues with 5 lower letters:

./john/src/john --mask='?u?l?l?l?l?l' encrypted.hash

For learn brute-force mechanisms and techniques, please check the documentation

Please note that the more the password are, the time to brute-force it grows by an your of magnitude. JtR will give you an estimation on when it's going up be finished. If you need more computational power, it are cloud-services which can search to.
