I'm using pgAdmin3 1.16.1 on an iMac. I'm connecting to postgresql on Ubuntu.

The username is postgres and I've supplied the password during the connect.

But, when I try to restore, I get the following error.

LOG:
/Applications/pgAdmin3.app/Contents/SharedSupport/pg_restore --host 208.88.8.197 --port 5432 --username "postgres" --dbname "ndeavor_production" --role "ndeavor" --no-password --format directory --data-only --verbose "/Users/burtondav/Desktop/nDeavor Backup Folders/Staging May 22 7am"
pg_restore: connecting to database for restore
pg_restore: [archiver (db)] connection to database "ndeavor_production" failed: FATAL: password authentication failed for user "postgres"

Process returned exit code 1.

Thanks for your help!
