How can I change my rescue e-mail

Hi,
I forgot my security answers and I tried to reset them but it got sent to my rescue E-mail, the problem is that I can't remember the rescue E-mail or password.
so, how can I change my rescue E-mail.
I tried to connect to support team but it didn't work.

You won't be able to 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.
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 update your rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

You can can get your rescue email address here, If that is what you are trying to do.

If you are trying to change your Apple ID because you got a new email address, you can also do that in the website that I posted above.
If that isn't what you want to do, you are going to have to explain in more detail what your registration email is.

How can I change my rescue email or get rid of it? I need to change my email under my apple ID to the email that is my rescue email. It won't allow me to have the same email. I only have one email address and can no longer access the email address under my apple ID

Welcome to the Apple community.
Once you have created a rescue address, you cannot delete it, nor can you change it to the same address as used by your ID. There are numerous providers you can get additional email addresses from, such as Hotmail, Yahoo, Google etc etc.

HT5312 how can i change my rescue email?

How can iI change my rescue email? My original apple id email is no longer valid and I would like to change my apple id to what is currently my rescue email. I have a secondary email that I can change to my rescue email. However, because I could not designate my primary email as my apple id, my current secondary email is my apple id. Please help.

Sign in to manage apple ID
Go to "Password and security"
---> at this point you may be able to change your rescue email address
---> you may need to answer security questions and THEN be able to
Alt strategy --
This is what I actually did when I needed to change my rescue email. However, it is clear that the above strategies would now work for me.
I needed to change my rescue email b/c I wanted that email to be my primary email/appleID. The rescue email and primary cannot be the same for some reason. When I needed to do it, I forgot the answer to one of my security questions so was forced to click "Send reset security info email to •••••@***.com." This sent an email to my rescue email address -- so if you cannot access your rescue, this alt strategy will not work.
When I clicked the link sent, something went wrong and aple could not bring me to that page. However, when I looked back in the browser tab where I was managing my AppleID, the page/environment for "Password and security" changed. All that was there was something to click that said "Reset .....". This brought me to a page to change all 'password and security' related issues including my rescue email address.
Summary of Alt:
Sign in to manage apple ID
Go to "Password and security"
click "Send reset security info email to •••••@***.com."
--> may have to go to rescue email address and follow instructions there and it may work
--> could be you only have to renew the 'password and settings' page to see new option to click "Reset...."
--------> This latter step was available to me after clicking link in rescue email

Another user had success doing the following:
I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
      tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
      "done", in the upper right corner
c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
      Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
      should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
      security questions.
d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
      selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
      should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security

It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
Good Luck friends!

HT1918 How do I change my RESCUE e-mail address, which,now thatI've moved, happens to be the same as my NEW e-mail address?

How do I update my e-mail address which is the same as my RESCUE e-mail address? I have moved and cancelled my old ISP and any associated e-mails with them, and moved my email address to GMAIL. It happens to be the same as my original Rescue email so I need to change the RESCUE email address and you don't give me that option on the Account/E-mail Change page, you just keep kicking me back to "Your email address can't be the same as your Rescue email address" and leave me hanging!

To change your rescue e-mail goto
My Apple Id
Then login and goto security
There should ask you for your security questions answer them and it will take you to a page where you can change them
On that page their should be an area that says "Rescue E-mail"
Click delete or change (if you click change type new rescue e-mail you want)
After that click save
Then you can change your primary e-mail.
Hope this helps

How can I change a wrong e-mail adres in the Adobe ID for an E-Reader.

I have an Adobe ID for Digital Editions for my pc.
Then I connected an E-Reader to my pc and I had to authorize the reader with an Adobe ID.
I thought it would be the same as the ID for my pc, but the system send my the message that this ID already was in use and I had to give another e-mail adres.
I found this very strange, because it was for the same Digital Editions, and I had used the same adres and password before (My pc crashed a week before and I had to re-install Windows Vista again) but accidently I then typed in a wrong e-mail adres and that e-mail adres was accepted and from that moment I had two Adobe ID's.
That adres is a non-existing adres, so I wil change it into the correct one.
But how can I change it, I can't found any possibility to do so.

Go to System Preferences>iCloud, click Sign Out, then sign back in with the correct ID.

HT201342 how can I change my iCloud e-mail address? It's spelled incorrectly.

I spelled the e-mail address incorrectly when I signed up for the iCloud service but didn't notice it until it was set. How can I change the address to be spelled correctly? If it means deleting the incorrect one and then adding the correct one I can't figure out how to do that either!
Jerry

You can't change and iCloud email account address once created. You can either create a new iCloud account, or add an @icloud.com email alias address to the existing account, which will receive email in your existing iCloud inbox (more details here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a490a.
If you would rather create a new account and keep your data, start by saving any photo stream photos on your phone that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll. If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone and choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data. When you turn Mail on you will be asked to create your new iCloud email address. Type carefully as it cannot be changed later.
