How to reset the security questions

I tried to solve my problem..
shows to go manage ID > Password and Security and I dont see send a email to rescue email adress to reset the answer
help my apple ID is blocked now!!!!

The reset link will only show if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account. 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 will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

When they've been resetyou 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

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!

How to reset the security questions without the phone call ?

Hi
i want to reset my security question ( and make the rescue mail ) in order to puchase apps from app store.
I can not make the call since i am coming for a business tripo abroad .
How can i do it online ?

If you are not currently in the country where your account is based then you won't be able to download any content until you return to it - you need to be in a country to use its store.
If you don't already have a rescue email address on your account then you will need to contact Support in your account's country to get the questions reset, which is likely to be by phone as they need to confirm your id and that it's your account - you won't be able to add a rescue email address until you can answer your questions.

<E-mail Edited by Host>

As these are user-to-user forums I've asked the hosts to remove your email address from your post's title.
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 then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

How do i reset the security questions on downloads

anybody know how to reset the security questions on downloads im trying to download a new album and it wont let me get thru security questions

Click here for information. If you can't reset them through the method described in that article or by sending yourself a rescue email(the email may take a few hours to arrive), contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in the 'Additional Information' section.
It isn't possible to create a rescue email address without correctly answering two of the questions. Nobody on these boards can reset them for you.

How the **** do you reset the security questions? And how do you add a backed up library to a new computer?

So I have a couple issues and I am extremely frustrated, I'm about to smash all of my apple products.
First issue is how do you reset the security questions? Can't seem to find the "forgot answer" of anything like that.
Second is my old comp crashed so I backed up my iTunes to an external HD, got the file on the new computer, installed iTunes, got alot of my old music from iCloud, but didn't get all my music so I went to add a folder like the support thing I found said, but there's only an add file option, do I have to add each song?
Is there a way to get the songs from my iPhone to the iTunes library? It has all of my music on it as well
Thanks
Mike

For the security questions......
On your computer or safari on your iOS device navigate to:
          For Canada - https://appleid.apple.com/ca.
          For United States - https://appleid.apple.com/us/.
Click the "Manage your Apple ID" button, and sign in to your iCloud account. Once in, on the left side select "Password and Security", and this will populate our options on the right side. You should see an option to reset your security questions.
Also see this article about your "rescue email address" - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312.
If for any reason you can not reset these security questions, or get an error, then you may need to contact Apple directly - http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57.   Explain the issue, and they can get your to a "Account Security" agent, who will be able to verify your identity, and assist in resetting the security questions.
For iTunes....
Is the music you are missing purchased from the iTunes store? If so
you can Download Past Purchases - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519.

Somebody has created an apple id using my gmail id. So I gave forgot password option and reset the password of the id. But for resetting the security questions, link is going to some other email id which is created by the other guy.How can I resolve this?

When I tried to create and apple id using my gmail account i found that somebody has already created an apple id using my gmail id. So I gave forgot password option and reset the password of the id. But for resetting the security questions, link is going to some other email id which is created by the other guy. Now the problem is that the other guy also can reset my password and access my account.
I contacted apple customer care and they are not ready to help me saying that I need to give information about the last device I logged in using this id. How can I give it when I did not create it?:) Also they are saying this account has been verified and that could happen only if someone has hacked my gmail account and verified the id using the link sent by apple.
Later I did some experiments and found that this is a security flaw from apple. Somebody has created the id and never used it(I tried to loggin to icloud and it was saying this account was not used it any apple device). The account became verified when I reset the password.(This is a bug, account should be verified only when we click on the verification link sent by apple).
The other mistake apple did is that they allotted my gmail account to someone before it's verified eventhough it cannot be used unless verified. Actually apple should allot the account id only after verifying the email address.
Apple customer care is not ready to help and I am tired of fighting with them. Can any of you guys suggest any means of getting back my gmail id to use it as apple id?

I don't think you're going to be able to. I would guess the other person used your address by accident, and when he found he couldn't access the account (because you'd changed the password) he abandoned it. Your GMail address is now locked to that account and even if it was changed you can't use it to create another.
You already have an Apple ID, which you use to log in here; you can use that to create an iCloud account if that's what you are trying to do. If you want to create a different Apple ID just get another free address such as a Yahoo one.

How to reset my security question if i forgot the answers

how to reset my security question if i forgot the answers

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed, filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

HT5312 How to reset my security question(s); I am still not clear on the explanation given

How to reset my security question(s); I am still not clear on the explanation given

I may not be making myself clear on what I have done;
Initially, I went through the steps to answer the security questions; I was only able to answer one, then I reached the maximum amount of attempts for the second question.
I then tried the steps; to the page to click on 'manage my id'; then I signed back in and clicked on the line on the left side of page that reads "password and secuirty"; which then states; "We apologize, but we were unable to verify your account information with the answers you provided to our security questions - You have made too many attempts to answer these questions. So, for security reasons, you will not be able to reset password for the next eight hours".
The thing is, I am not and was not trying to reset my password, only the security questions - for the past 2 - 3 hours I have been trying this.
I have also tried to get phone assistance and I keep getting e-mails that Apple has tried to call - no one has called my number, I have been sitting by the phone for the pastg 3+ hours . . . .
I am not sure what else to do at this point.

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.
