How do you reset your secret question and answers?

I have had this problem since getting my new iPad. I tried purchasing apps from the app store as well as buy music from iTunes store using my apple ID and then the security question pops up. I have forgotten the answers and there is no link to assist me retrieve or reset the questions and answers. My help email to Apple Support 4 weeks ago has not been attended to. All I get is emails saying we will be in contact with you soon. Please help!

    See this previous discussion:

    and maybe here:
    Can I change the answers to the security questions for my Apple ID?
    Yes. You can change the answers to the security questions provided when you originally signed up for your Apple ID. Go to My Apple ID and click Manage your account.

    hi all how do you reset your security questions. i can not remember the answers. how do you reset them? i cant buy anything because it keeps coming up

    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 you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

  • HT201303 How do you reset your security questions if you do not know the answers?

    How do you reset your security questions if you do not know the answers?

    If you have a rescue email address set up on your account then you can try going 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 might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address set up then go to Express 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 Questions' or 'iTunes Store account security' (it appears to vary by country) and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
    You should get an email reply within about 24 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox).
    Or you could see if the second half of Kappy's reply in this thread helps : https://discussions.apple.com/message/20357006#20357006

  • HT4990 how can you reset your security questions if you have forgot them

    How can you reset your security questions if you have forgot them.?

    You may find solutions if you look under More Like This at the right of this page. If not, this forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store and hence not the best place to get assistance with this problem. You'll be most likely to get additional help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes forums where this question has been asked and answered in a number of other threads.
    Regards.

    how can you reset your security questions if you forgot them???????????

    You can go to appleid.apple.com, sign in, click on password and security and if you have a rescue email on file you can select to send an email to reset them. If the option is not there you will need to visit expresslane.apple.com to request to have them reset.

  • HT201363 How can you reset your security questions if you can't remember the answers?

    Hello! my question is how can you reset your security questions if you don't remember the answers?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

    how do you reset your security questions when the rescue email address no longer exists?

    Didn't the link to contact the iTunes Store staff in the 'Additional Information' section of that article work for you? If you don't already have a valid rescue email address, only Apple itself can reset the questions.
