HT201303 set security questions

how do i set my security questions

Welcome to the Apple community.
Start here, change your country if necessary and go tomanage your account > Password and Security.
I'm able to do this, others say they need to input answers to their current security questions in order to make changes, I'm inclined to think its worth a try, you don't have anything to lose.
If that doesn't help you might try contacting Apple through Express Lane (select your country, navigate to iCloud help and enter the serial number of one of your devices)

  • Forcing Users to set Security Questions

    Hi All,
    Currently when a user joins the organization, the user can go to IdM user interface, login and set security questions. But this is an option only if user wants to use self service in IdM. So, it has been found that users are not setting it and it becaomes a pain when they call help desk for password change and help desk is not able to verify the user's identity because security questions are not set.
    Please share your thoughts how other organizations are handling this situation.
    Is there any way that we can force a user to set security questions when the user logs in first time?
    Regards,
    Gaurav

    Hello,
    In our Organization we did the following.
    Under the Security tab there is a Policy tab.
    There you should find a policy called: Default Identity Manager Account Policy.
    Under Secondary Authentication Policy Options make sure "Enforce Answer Policy at Login" is checked.
    In page help states:
    Select this option to enforce the authentication question policy when the user logs in to this interface.
    This solution works however it did become problematic while we had pass-thru authentication configured.
    All the best

  • How to install Twitter app without setting security questions?

    Hello! I recently registered a Twitter account. iOS 6 includes Twitter integration - great. When I navigate to Settings - Twitter and tap the Install button, a dialog shows up: "Improve your Apple ID security" and "Set security questions" blah blah. There are two buttons in the dialog, "Set questions" and "Cancel". If I tap Cancel, Twitter app download doesn't begin and Twitter icon disappears from my SpringBoard. If I tap "Set questions", I need to answer some stupid questions. If I leave answer boxes empty, I can't continue. I will not set any security questions for my Apple ID, that's for sure.
    How I can install Twitter app?

    I just encountered the same problem when I tried to download Twitter on my husband's new iPhone 5.  There was no problem when I installed Twitter on my iPhone 3GS yesterday :-( 
    You've probably seen by now that there are many, many people who are having problems with the 'Help improve Apple ID security' message - not confined to iPhone but also on iTunes, iPod Touch, iPad etc.
    I chose the 'Not Now' button on his iPhone 5 and the Twitter app wouldn't allow me to proceed ....
    Looks like Apple aren't in any hurry to fix this because people have been complaining about it for months (after all,  your post is more than 3 months old and the problem is still occurring).
    Were you ever able to activate Twitter on your iPhone 4S?

  • HT201303 I am trying to set security question.but I don't know how to?.i try everything.email or other but not succcess.

    I forget the security question.i am trying to set new question so this time I am write my notebook.

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page should let you reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    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.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    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 HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • HT1918 Re set security questions

    How do I re set my security questions for my Apple ID account as I cannot remember the answers

    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.

  • Set Security Question & Answer using UME API in Web dynpro Java

    Hi Experts,
    I;ve developed a Web Dynpro java application to create a user in UME.
    I am able to set all the user account related attributes but I am not able to set the security question and answer as I do not see any attribute for the same.
    Can anyone please suggest how to set the Security question and answer in UME?
    This is required so that if the user wishes to reset his password / forgets password, we can ask him the security question which he selected at the time of registration.
    Please let me know if it can be achieved at the code level and whether UME API supports security question and answer or any such attribute.
    Also, if no such attribute is present by default in UME at the moment; can we create/configure some custom attributes in UME and store the security question and answer into those attributes. This would serve our purpose.
    Kindly assist.
    Regards,
    Anurag

    Hi,
    Thanks a lot for the reply!!!
    I have one doubt here:
    You've mentioned the below code to fetch the security questions in your reply:
    IUser user = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser().getSAPUser();
    String CUSTOMER_NAMESPACE = "com.sap.security.core.usermanagement";
    String attmotname [] = user.getAttribute(CUSTOMER_NAMESPACE,"MotherName");
    String attlucknum [] = user.getAttribute(CUSTOMER_NAMESPACE,"LuckyNumber");
    String attmobnum [] = user.getAttribute(CUSTOMER_NAMESPACE,"MobileNumber");.
    But this would be only applicable when the user has already logged on to the portal as it uses "WDClientUser.getCurrentUser().getSAPUser();" code.
    On the contrary, I want the security questions and answer to be accessed even when the user is not logged on to Portal so that based on the question & answer, the user can reset his password.
    Please suggest, how can we achieve this and where and how to set the custom attributes for the same?
    Do we have to set the Publicly Viewable Custom Attributes present at location you mentioned in your reply?
    Also, if yes; please let me know how to set the custom attributes?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Anurag

  • HT201303 Forgot security questions

    I forgot all my security questions for my apple id, my account was set up years ago. How can I reset or find answers.

    Reset Security Questions
    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
    Manage My Apple ID
    Or you can email iTunes Support at iTunes Store Support.
    If all else fails:
      1. Go to: Apple Express Lane;
      2. Under Product Categories choose iTunes;
      3. Then choose iTunes Store;
      4. Then choose Account Management;
      5. Now choose iTunes Store Security and answer the bullet questions, then click
          Continue;
      6. Sign in with your Apple ID and press Continue;
      7. Under Contact Options fill out the information and advise iTunes that you would
          like your security/challenge questions reset;
      8. Click Send/Continue.
    You should get a response within 24 hours by email.
    In the event you are unsuccessful then contact AppleCare - Contacting Apple for support and service.
    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!

  • I never set security questions but I never answered them. Help!

    I am being asked to answer security questions that I never set. What do I do?

    Click here for information. If you can't get the answers emailed to you for some reason, contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in that article.

  • I never set security questions -- how to change?

    I have no rescue email, I never set those security questions in the first place, and no way to contact support now.
    I can make an appointment to call them a week from now.   Is this so called support just a waste of my time?

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    Some folks report that one way arounfd the security questions is by reviewing or changing their bank card info. I would use the iTunes app on the computer to do that.

  • HT201303 forgot security question answers, really

    Cannot purchase music due to security question answers forgotten. Really , I purchase itunes card, can select music  but before it downloads Itunes asks for my security questions, not just passsword, cannot use $25 in itunes credit, but iphone apps update using only password, help?

    If you can't remember them 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 Security' 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) - but some recent posts are saying that Apple have temporarily suspended the reseting of security question/answers whilst account security processes are improved, so it may take longer.

  • HT201303 My security questions aren't working is there a way to reset them?

    My ID keeps asking for security questions I dont remember them is there a way I can get them or reset them?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You might try to see if you can change your security questions. Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account > Password and Security.
    I'm able to do this, others say they need to input answers to their current security questions in order to make changes, I'm inclined to think its worth a try, you don't have anything to lose.
    If that doesn't help you might try contacting Apple through Express Lane (select your country, navigate to iCloud help and enter the serial number of one of your devices)
