Do you mean that the reset link won't show on your account or that the email doesn't arrive on your rescue email address ?
The reset link will only show if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions), or you aren't receiving the email to it (you've checked the spam folder on the account and tried clicking the reset link again) then you will need to contact Support 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

TS2446 I am having trouble trying to reset my security questions it made me change my password and I knew that but never let me change questions that I forgot answers to

Please help me reset my security questions I have had no luck thus far following the directions

You won't be able to view or change your rescue email address until you can answer 2 of your questions, you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

Security Questions to answer before purchasing via iTunes and App Store

I am trying to purchase an app via the app store for the first time on my new iphone 5. It initially asks me security questions to answer BUT these aren't my original security questions that i've answered on my own Apple account via appleid.apple.com. What do I do since i'm stuck at this point....

Make sure your phone is set up to use your old AppleID unless you have specific reasons to want to change. Purchase cannot be transferred between accounts.

I'm trying to get my security questions back but I don't know what my rescue email is.. Any help?

Please help!!! Tell me what to do!!

Contact Account Security. You can set up a call with them. Click on "Other AppleID topics" then on "Forgotten Apple ID security questions".

What if i send the security question reset thing to my rescue email and the email never comes?

I go to the setting and go to security and press the recur email thing for the security questions and a email for apple never comes ? I tried it 3 times and refreshed my email no emails have come yet.

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 was trying to update my Security Questions this morning but got 'Timed Out' I've just tried again to get into my security settings but the system does not recognise the information I'm putting in. Can anyone tell me how I can correct this problem. I can still log-in.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You might try to see if you can change your security questions. Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account > Password and Security.
I'm able to do this, others say they need to input answers to their current security questions in order to make changes, I'm inclined to think its worth a try, you don't have anything to lose.
If that doesn't help you might try contacting Apple through Express Lane (select your country, navigate to iCloud help and enter the serial number of one of your devices)
