I'm having trouble getting my reset link for my security questions because I no longer have access to the recovery email address

I'm having trouble resetting my security questions because I no longer have access to the recovery email account that the link gets sent to and I can't make any purchases in the app or iTunes Store until this is fixed because I'm on a new iPad and it won't let me make any purchases until I've done so

You need to 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.

  • Cant change security questions because i do not have access to my recovery email. I called apple support and they just sent me a password reset.

    This is really annoying and i just want to use my itunes credit! Apple support didnt help at all and at this point im ready to give up. it shouldn't be this hard!

    How did you contact support ? If you've forgotten your answers and don't have access to the rescue email address that you put on your account then you should be able to get the questions reset by contacting Support in your country via this page : http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT5699#C - is that what you used ?
    When they've been reset you can then update your rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201356

    Please be aware that you are not communicating with Apple when you post in these forums. These are user-to-user support forums, so in almost all cases the only people who will reply to your posts are, like me, your fellow users.
    As to whether you can work with Apple via email on this issue I can't say for sure, but you can contact them via this web page:
    http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/contact/
    and see if they can help. It's mostly going to be an issue of you being able to prove to them that you are the account owner.
    Regards.

    That is only present if you have already updated to iOS 5 or later.  If you're on iOS 4 you can only update while connected to your computer's iTunes.

    You can't access iCloud from your iPhone unless you're on iOS 5 or later.  Otherwise, refer to this article:

    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

    Reset Security Questions
         There are several different methods. Try one. If it doesn't work,
         then try the next one. Don't try to do everything at once.
    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
    Manage My Apple ID
    Note: you may need to continue entering false answers to the questions until you trigger the response needed to start making changes. It will take six or nine retries.
    Or you can email iTunes Support at iTunes Store Support.
    If all else fails:
      1. Go to: Apple Express Lane;
      2. Under Product Categories choose iTunes;
      3. Then choose iTunes Store;
      4. Then choose Account Management;
      5. Now choose iTunes Store Security and answer the bullet questions, then click
          Continue;
      6. Sign in with your Apple ID and press Continue;
      7. Under Contact Options fill out the information and advise iTunes that you would
          like your security/challenge questions reset;
      8. Click Send/Continue.
    You should get a response within 24 hours by email.
    In the event you are unsuccessful then contact AppleCare - Contacting Apple for support and service.
    Another user had success doing the following:
    I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
    Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
      a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
          tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
      b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
          "done", in the upper right corner
      c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
          Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
          should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
          security questions.
      d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
          selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
          should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
          questions.
    It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
    Good Luck friends!

  • How do I get the password for an old apple id, when I don't have access to that old email address, and it doesn't recognize my birthdate?

    How do I get the password for an old apple ID when I dont have access to the email address and it does not recognize my birthdate?

    Hi Attila528,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you are not able to receive a rescue email to reset your security questions and password:
    You'll need to contact iTunes Store support to have your questions and answers reset.
    You can find the article with this information here:
    Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    After your password, security questions and answers are reset, I'd recommend providing a new rescue email address:
    You can edit or delete your rescue email address at My Apple ID. To edit your rescue email address:
    Navigate to My Apple ID using your web browser.
    Click "Manage your account"
    When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
    Click Password & Security
    You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
    All the best,
    Jeremy

  • HT1911 i can't remember my security questions but i do not want to make a new email address to reset them what do i do.

    i can't remember my security questions but i do not want to make a new email address to reset them what do i do.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Start here (change country if necessary) and navigate to 'Password and Security', reset your security questions using the link provided, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
    If that doesn't help, you don't receive a reset email or you don't have a rescue address, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
    If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.

    I no longer have access to the email address used as my Apple ID and when I choose to answer security questions, my DOB had to have been originally entered incorrectly because it keeps failing.  How do I get rid of my old Apple ID and create a new one?

    Contact Apple, either through the link in that article or by phoning them. Alternatively, just create a new Apple ID; previous iTunes Store purchases won't be transferred to it.
