    How do i reset my security questions i forgot the answers to them?

    Ok, same here, purchases cant be made, becouse as an addition to the password, apple wants your answer to security questions now... The problem with that questions is, the answers were never needed and now long forgotten!
    A quicklink from Neil DOESNT solve nothing. As I first sign in to Apple, got My Apple ID, no RESCUE EMAIL was needed. With no such email I have NO CHANCE to reset this security questions.
    If I reset my password, there in NO OPTION to reset this security questions as well.
    So, I am strandend with some 30 bucks on my Apple acount and for now no way to spend it, thats OK, but some Apps want authentication for even updating, so I am stuck with no updates either... I purchased for about 500 bucks in last years from Apple, maybe thats it for me...
    (Apple ***** more and more, maybe ut ist time to move to Android; a personal opinion).
    A SOLUTION? Is there a way reseting your security questions with ONLY your Apple ID, the password for it nad a primary and alternate email; without a rescue email setup and no way to set it up???
    Thx for your support, for long time I know now there is no help to be expected from Apple Service...

    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 work : 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 the questions 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 the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use.

  • How can I reset my iPad that I forgot the password to my linked account.

    My iPad is linked to an old gmail account of mine that I believe has been hacked.  I have tried everything to
    reset my gmail password and it hasn't worked.  I think someone changed all of my information.  I have
    tried to reset my iPad by holding down the home button and power button and connecting to iTunes.  I
    did the restore but now it is saying "This iPad is currently linked to an Apple ID. Sign in with the Apple ID
    that was used to set up this iPad."  It provides me with the Apple ID: m*****@gmail.com and wants me
    to enter the password but I don't know the password and have tried everything to retrieve it.  There's nothing
    on the iPad so I don't care about erasing any data.  How can I reset the iPad so that I can use it?  Is there
    another method besides the one I have already tried?

    If your iPad is running iOS 7, there is no way you're going to be able to regain access to your iPad without the password for the Apple ID used by that iPad. You cannot even restore the iPad to factory settings without the password. This is an anti-theft feature.
    You will need to contact Apple and try to regain control of your Apple ID. It is entirely possible, however, for the hacker to make changes to your Apple ID that would make it difficult or impossible to do that. You need to act as quickly as possible!

    Presently there appears to be problems on Apple's end, so it may be quite some time before they respond.
    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...
    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.
    Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select "done", in the upper right corner
    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.
    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!

    I know my user name and password but do not know the answers to my security question ,,,,how do I change the security questions
    operating system 10.9.2

    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.

  • HT1491 how do i change my security questions i forgot the answers

    i forgot all of my answers to my security questions

    Click here and search the article for '2 out of 3' without the quotes; in the case of forgotten answers, this generally involves either a message being sent to your rescue email address or contacting the iTunes Store staff directly.
