HT5312 There are no words saying to reset security question. I have forgotten my answer to my question.

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 aren't getting the link then that implies that you don't have one, and you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions - you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.

When they've been reset you can then use steps 1to 7 half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

Hi
I have purchased an audio book from iTunes with my iMac.
Now I wanted to listen to it on my iPhone so I proceeded to transfer the purchase and looked for the book in the purchased section of the store in the iTunes on my iPhone but it did not show up.
Does anyone know why and how I can transfer the audio book purchased on my iPhone so I can listen while away from the desk?
Thank you,
Sanya

Can you find the audio book by using the Search feature on the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync the audio book to the iPod?
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
Note you have to check the boxes in Books pane for the iPod in iTunes to sync books in general and another box to sync Audio Books.

Hello popsicles,
This first article should be helpful in getting iTunes to recognize your iPad once more:

If the device is still disabled once it's appeared in iTunes again, please reference this second article:

Why i can't email with instructions on how to reset your security information ?

i need to email me how to with instructions on how to reset your security information

No, sorry. There is no way to get around the Activation Lock:
ACTIVATION LOCK
The original owner must sign out of Find My iPhone before you will be able to use it. These instructions would need to be followed:
Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
If you are unable to contact the previous owner to follow these steps, then you basically have a very nice paperweight....
Sorry,
GB

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
      questions.
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!

HT5312 how to reset my Security Question

hi
how to reset my Security Question, i will try many times but i cann't please help me for that

What have you tried many times ? If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 on the page that you posted from should let you reset them : 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 / Apple to get the questions reset.
