Alright, so I got my replacement iPhone 5 yesterday (my 2nd replacement) and the backup didn't save ALL of my passwords (just some) for my apps.

Is this normal? I don't remember it ever doing this before?

Also, is it because it's a new device? I know when I made backups (with my old phone) and restored (my old phone) all of my passwords were saved..

Any help would be great. Thanks!

Usually passwords are not stored for security reason.
I have to enter my email passwords and such after a restore from backup to a new device.

Thanks! I just wanted to make sure I wasn't going crazy.. I must have entered my email address more than a dozen times!
