How to reset your Apple ID password.
Go to iforgot.apple.com and type in your Apple ID, then click 'Next'.
Verify your date of birth, then click 'Next'.
You'll be able to choose one of two methods to reset your password, either E-Mail Authentication or Answer Security Questions.
If neither method works, then go to https://getsupport.apple.com
(If you see a message that says 'There are no products registered to this Apple ID, simply click on 'See all products and services')
Choose 'More Products & Services', then 'Apple ID'.
A new page will open.
Choose 'Other Apple ID Topics', then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'.
Click the blue 'Continue' button.
Select the contact option that suits your needs best.
How to reset your Apple ID security questions.
Go to appleid.apple.com, click on the blue button that says 'Manage Your Apple ID'.
Log in with your Apple ID and password. (If you have forgotten your Apple ID password, go to iforgot.apple.com first to reset your password with a password recovery email)
Go to the Password & Security section on the left side, and click on the link underneath the security questions that says 'Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to [email]'. This will generate an automated e-mail that will allow you to reset your security questions.
If that doesn't work, or there is no rescue email link available, then click on 'Temporary Support PIN' that is in the bottom left side, and generate a 4-digit PIN for the Apple Account Security Advisor you will be contacting later.
Next, go to https://getsupport.apple.com

I forgot my Apple ID password and security question. Also the email I'd is not accessible as the organisation has stopped their email service. How can I now update my applications which I downloaded using this Apple ID. Please help

I forgot the password of my Apple ID that I used for downloading apps when I newly bought my mac book back in 2011 October.
Now I forgot the password and also the security question.
Also the email service provider has stopped their email service and hence m not able to use email authentication as well.
Now I am lost, how will i update the applications that I downloaded using this Apple ID.
Please help

Hello there, Faisal-almutairi.
The following Knowledge Base article has the information you need for what to do in your situation:
Apple ID: All about Apple ID security questions
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5665
Specifically:
What should I do if I don't remember the answers to my Apple ID security questions?
Try answering them at least once to see if you can get them right, even if you are not sure you remember the answers to your security questions.
If you are confident you can't remember them, try one of the following:
If you have three security questions and a rescue email address
sign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers.
If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID passwordsign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to reset your security question.
If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID password
contact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
Note: If you have forgotten your password and answer your security questions incorrectly too many times in a row, you will be unable to try to answer your security questions for a period of time. During that time you will not be able to reset your password and will not have access to your account.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro D.

TS3297 I have an iPhone and recently bought an iPod 4 touch what l am using the same apple ID for. The iPod won't let me download songs from iTunes it is asking me security questions which I don't think I have put answers to in the first place.

I have an iPhone and recently bought an iPod 4 touch what l am using the same apple ID for. The iPod won't let me download songs from iTunes it is asking me security questions which I don't think I have put answers to in the first place, because of this it won't let me buy any songs on iTunes

It's probably asking you to verify the security code found on the back of your credit card.
Regards.

Dear Sir/Madam,
I have apple ID for my iphone 5, but unfortunately I forgot my security answers. I'm trying to reset my security answers, but rescue e-mail what is mentioned no more exist. Could you help me to change rescue e-mail adress?
Hope of your help.
Thank you in advance.

We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple
You won't be able to change your rescue email address until you can answer your questions, you will need to contact Support to get the questions reset.
I assume that you are in the country Georgia, not the US state. In which case try contacting Support via this page and explain that you've forgotten your answers, don't have access to your rescue email account, and your country isn't on the HT5699 page (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699) and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
When they've been reset you can then use steps 1 to 7 half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to update your rescue email address for potential future use

HT1349 I forgot the answer to my security questions and I don't have a rescue email, whenever I receive a call from apple support it disconnects, is there any other way of resetting security questions?

Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions

When I try to download apps, I am asked to answer security questions. However, when I cklick "continue", I am required to type in my Apple ID password but nothing else happens. Bottomline, I am not able to download apps at the time which is annoying.

Try downloading something from the iTunes Store on the iPad and see if that solve the password problem.

Click here for information. If the option to have the answers emailed to you isn't available or doesn't work(the email may take a few hours to arrive), contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in the 'Additional Information' section of that article.
Nobody on these boards can reset them for you.
