It depends on the state as to whether or not a warrant can compel you to give your password. It kinda hinges on how allowable "I forgot" is. After all, it's really hard to prove you know it.
For an online service a warrant to the company will get them your info. Your password is irrelevant to the company hosting the service.
For a file it's just a matter of brute forcing it.
For a device like your phone, I haven't kept up with where that's at, but I'm betting the company has a way to crack it given a warrant.
To quote what I'm reaponding to:
Pretty sure this must be an online service.
