Forgot security questions, Cannot set up rescue email

this is bugging me so badly, i cannot use my itunes gift card because it asks for security questions, when i try to retrieve my security questions by setting up a rescue email, it requires me to answer the security questions which i cannot do. what in gods name do i do.

You won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions, you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset 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 Forgot security questions but didnt require rescue email address help!

    What do I do when i dont remember my security questions but i didnt require a rescue email address? this is getting really frustrating when I really wanna buy things! HELP!!

    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 forgot my security question answers and my rescue email address has been deactivated.

    As I said in the title, I forgot my security question answers and my rescue email address has been deactivated. Conveniently, you must enter your security questions to change your rescue email. The answers to the security questions are sent to the rescue email, so I am stuck. My only option seems to be to call Apple Support, which is my entire Friday off spent on an aggravating phone call. If anyone can give my an alternative route for fixing my problem, I am all ears.
    Please Help.

  • How do I reset my apple id security question with out a rescue email

    How do I reset my apple id security question with out a rescue email?

    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.

  • HT5312 I cannot use my apple id because every time I get into my account with the correct password, it prompts me for security questions which I've forgotten my answers.  It does not let me  reset my security questions even using a rescue email.  Help!!!

    I feel like I'm in an infinite loop.  I have all of the information correct except my security questions -- I set them up quickly and forgot what I answered.  Per the FAQs on Apple's website, I should be able to get a rescue email that allows me to reset the answers to the questions, however all I get is a rescue email to reset my password.  This is my first time trying to use this account and I can't get around the security questions.  Can anyone help me?  I just want to download some music to my mini iPad.

    Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.
