How do I change my rescue email address on an Iphone 4?

You do this at http://appleid.apple.com - click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Click 'Password and Security' in the left sidebar. You will need to answer two security questions you've previously set to get in, and then you can edit your rescue address. Click 'Save' at bottom right when done.

I dont remember the password of that email.

If you're able to correctly answer two of the questions, use the instructions in the article you asked this question from. If not, 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.

You will need to remove the address as your rescue email address first, which you can do by logging into your account via http://appleid.apple.com, selecting the Password & Security section and answering the security questions.
Changing rescue email address : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5620
You can then try putting it as your primary email address, which you can do either via that site, by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone and logging into, or via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes. If you don't do it directly on your phone you might then need to log out of your account by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in with the updated version.

How can I change my primary email address to the one that I use for my rescue email address?

I no longer use the email address associated with my apple ID account and the rescue email address I used is now my primary email address for everything, since it its not allowing me to just simply change my email address since its my rescue email address i want it changing to, can it be done and how?! :S Thank you!

You will need to remove it as your rescue email : log into your account via the 'manage your apple id' button on http://appleid.apple.com, select the 'Password And Security' section on your account's screen, and answer the two security questions that show - you should then be taken to another screen where you can change or remove your rescue email address.
Then try logging out of your account and then log back in and see if you can then use it as your primary email address.

How can I change my rescue email address to retrieve my security question answers?

Help me! I try to download songs from my phone and a message keeps popping up saying since this is my first time downloading from this device I need to verify my identity by answering my security questions. It's not the first time I've downloaded music from my phone and I can't send my questions to my rescue email because I dont remember whose email address it is. How do I change it?

Why can't I change my rescue email address for my apple ID account?

The email address I would like to use as my current rescue email address used to be my alternative email address. I switched my alternate email address, but it still won't let me set it as my current rescue email address. It is an icloud account. When I did the same thing with my gmail account (took it off the alternate and changed it to the rescue) it worked. Is it just the icloud account that doesn't work? My gmail acccount used to be an alternate address too.
