You need to either reset the rescue email address's password(check the site's help for instructions) or ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

I'm so annoyed because I do not remember my security questions. I made my Apple ID 5 years ago and it is impossible for me to remember these questions. I've tried to reset them but I don't remember the password to my original email adress to reset them.

I'm very annoyed with this. I have tried countless times to recover my security question answers, but they were made years ago. I do not understand want to do because when I do go to reset them, I can't remember my email address I used to set up my whole Apple ID. I just want to buy music and apps. Please help me?

You are on the wrong phone support. You need to contact the AST.
Check the AppleCare number for your country here:

Call them up, and let them know you would like to be transferred to the Account Security Team.

You won't be able to change your rescue email address until you can answer your questions, if you can't get the password for that email account reset then you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.

HT204053 I have iPad 2 and recently changed my Internet Service Provider and email address. I have created a new Apple I.D. and password but when I try to access or open my iPad 2 I am asked for the password for my previous email address.

I have iPad 2 and recently changed my Internet Service Provider and email address. When I switch on the iPad I am asked for my password for
my previous providerwhich when entered is not acceptable. I am told to create a new passord but this only changes the password for my current
address. I am now unable to access iPad and I need to know how to circumvent this.

Roger, thank you. I wish I had sent out this question a month ago, when I committed the folly of creating another apple id with my alternate email address. Since then, I had realized that I didn't seem to need it, hence today's post.
So now what do I do? Is there anyway to delete that unecessary apple id?
And it is even worse than that...the secondary address listed currently in our apple id is a mobile me one that my husband created, but never uses, never checks, and probably doesn't even remember the password for.

I am trying to update my apps on my iPhone. I recently change my apple ID to a new email address. When I go to update the pop us is asking for the password for my old email address.

I recently changed my apple ID to my new email address. On my iPhone 4 I am trying to update apps and it asks me for my apple ID password for my old email address. How do I change to my new email address?

Did you change the Apple ID primary email to another email address or did you create a whole new Apple ID?
Go to settings>itunes & app store and if it shows your old apple id at the top then tap on it then sign out and then sign in with your new apple id email.

Forgot my Apple ID password for my OLD email address? HELP

Soo, I'm trying to get started on my iPhone 6 set up and it's ground to a hault as it wants to know the password to my OLD email address which I do not remember. i need this to carry on with my iPhone set up. I'm aware their is a password reminder for my current email address however not for an old email password. I have no way of finding out as it was solo long ago now. Please advise!

What are you actually needing to do? If the issue is Restoring your Backup from an iCloud Account, then yes you would need your Apple ID and Password at minimum. If you are just adding your email to the iPhone 6 then you would need your current email Account ID and Password. Sounds more like an Apple ID Issue.

HT201413 I have a family itunes account- i purchased a new itouch and each time i try to purchase an app - the itouch asks me to confirm security questions that I never set.

I have a family itunes account with several devices attached... I can make purchases on all except the newest one.... each time I try to make a puchase it asks me to confirm security questions that I have never set

The reset link will only show if you have a rescue email address already set up on your account - if you don't have one then you won't get the reset option, and you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions, you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset.
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use, or you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

I am trying to reset the Security Questions as I have forgotten them, when I have logged into My Apple Id, and click on the button to reset the Security Questions, it states it is sending an email to the Primary Email address. I do not have the option to input a Rescue Email address, the only option I have is to input an Alternate Email address, which I have done so.
Also when I have tried to book an appointment throuth Online Support, I have not successful, I have rung a telephone number provided by the Mac Store in Perth, Australia and the reply provided is that we are closed. I was given to understand that Apple provided 24/7 Support to their users.

If you can correctly answer at least two of the security questions, follow the instructions in that article. If not, you need to contact Apple, either through the link in it or by phoning them and asking for the Account Security team.
