George said he is going to explan this. He also mention that issue is very minor. I believe we already saw how C3PO lost his memory. I could have been in Episode 2.
My theory is when he got his head switched with the battle droid some how that caused sort of a memory file los. I say this because when his head was put back on by Artoo, 3PO said that he had this paculure dream. Could that mean that his memory was lost on Geonosis? Hmm its only my theory. But then again 3PO and Artoo were with Anakin and Padme when they were getting merried in the end so that theory might not work. So I am left to one more quite possible theory.
When Anakin becomes Darth Vader and hunts down and destroys the Jedi knights, Ben obvieously goes into hideing with Yoda on Degahbah along with the twins. I say Degahbah the swamp world we saw in "Empire Strikes Back." because Yoda goes and lives the rest of his life there mainly to hide from the Emperor. By now Ben knows that Sidious is Palpatine and he knows about his plans to over throw the Republic and that he is doing this through Anakin and the dark side of the force. By now Anakin and Palpatine are the most dangerous individuals of the galaxy. I believe by Now Padme will be dead and the twins will be born. Padme dies because it mentions this in "Return of the Jedi" when Luke asked liea if she remembered her mother and Liea saying just a little bit before she died means she will die in 3.
So to get to the 3PO question. Ben along with 3PO and Senetar Bail Organa and the twins go to Degahbah to be protected by Yoda. That is why Luke recalls veguly being on Degahbah before as if it was dream in ESB. He simply was brought there at his birth. Anyway at this time they know Anakin was crazy and dangerious. They know by now he has turned to dark side so they need to hide his children. Luke goes off with Ben to be adopted by Owen and Beru and then Liea, 3PO and Artoo is taken to Alderan to be adopted by Bail Organa that senater you saw in ATOC with with the funny coller. He is Liea adopted father. But Liea is accompanied with 3PO and when they arrive on Alderan Organa simply erases 3PO's memory so that she may never be found by the Empire. They erase 3PO's memory because he just would blurt things out. Artoo on the other hand wasn't tampered with because of his mission in EP4.
So 3PO's memory is erased by Bail Organa to protect Liea from the Emperor. To hide her in secracy that one day she will rise to become the leader of the Rebellion aganst the Empire. The memory being erased is for security for Liea Organa. In the end after Ben and Organa hide the twins Obi wan finds Anakin and thus their dual begins and Anakin becomes Darth Vader. When Anakin is crushed and burned I believe a little bit of his memory of his homeworld is lost in that twisted metal and wires.
