Why do I have to answer security questions

Why do I have to answer security questions? I made this account like 3 years ago and i dont remember the answers

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

I'm being asked the answers to security questions when I try to download an album but I've never gave the info originally. How do I get past it ?

If you log into your account are you able to set them ? Go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side are you able to select the questions/answers ? If not then is there a reset link beneath the 2 questions ? (The reset link will only show if you have a rescue email address on your account.)
If not then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.

When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

HT5312 why do you have to answer security questions to reset them, if you don't know your security questions how are you able to reset them?

I don't understand this. Why can't you send an email to reset the questions or give you the answers?

Why do i have to answer security questions to get an app when i have a 15 dollar gift card entered?

I want to get my grandson this app called tararria for 5 dollars with the gift card money please help me

It is to ensure the security of your account. So someone does not steal your money.

-If you established a rescue email address, there will be a link on the "Passwords & Security" page of id.apple.com. Clicking the link will send the reset to your rescue email address (NOTE: This is not the same address as your Apple ID email)
-If there is no link on the page, then you didn't establish a rescue email address. Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466 (If you are in the US), and ask for account security. You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.

HT201272 why does it keep asking security questions when I try to download an app?

how do I download apps without it asking me security questions?

Are you saying that you can't remember the answers, or that you don't want them to be asked ? The questions are now part of the security features of the store and they can't be removed.
If you want to change the questions and you can remember their current answers then you can login here and change them : https://appleid.apple.com
If you can't remember their answers then go to Express Lane and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Security' and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
You should get an email reply within about 24 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox) - but some recent posts are saying that Apple have temporarily suspended the reseting of security question/answers whilst account security processes are improved, so it may take longer.

Why do I have to answer security questions before I download an app

Recently, I've had to fill out a security questionair every time I Download an app, why does this keep coming up? It used to be I could just use my apple ID, why did this change?

Apple has beefed up security on the App store, either in response to people reporting unauthroized use or in anticipation of unauthorized use. It's simply a step that's been taken to protect your Apple ID and the credit card/gift card balance attached to it.
