How do I get my security questions answers

I forgot my security questions

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset.
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
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 . Or, if it's available in your country, you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

  • HT1206 How do I get my security question answers that I forgot?

    I cannot remember the answers to some of my security questions. How do I retrieve them?

    If you can't remember the answers and you don't have a rescue email address then go toExpress Lane  and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
    Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
    Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Security' and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
    You should get an email reply within, I think, about 24 to 48 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox). hope tis helps, had the same problem a week ago.

  • HT201342 How do I get my security question answers if I forgot them? My mail is my normal hotmail address, but my rescue address is my iCloud. I just need the security questions so I can download music.

    I just got an iPod 5th generation for Christmas. Before, I had a 4th generation. I made my apple account over a year ago and I can't remember my security question answers. I've looked how to fix this, but it says send a rescue email. My rescue email is my iCloud account. I have no idea how to check my email on there because my mail is already just my hotmail account. I would make a new apple ID, but I've already downloaded a $10 card onto my iTunes not knowing it was going to do this. Please help!

  • How do I get new security questions if I dont have a rescue email

    how do I get new security questions if I dont have a rescue email  

    Hello marquart33,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your security questions.  I found an article with some useful information if you cannot remember the answers to your security questions:
    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.
    You can find the full article here:

    If you continue to have issues, please contact our Account Security Team as outlined in this article:
