HT201303 What about changing the security questions?

After my account was hacked in to I'm pretty sure they changed these, as mine no longer work

Sice I was having the exact same issue with my account and trying to make a purchase I found my solution by calling the apple support line that I found online, I'm not the greatest of problem solvers or talking to people over the phone for that measure but I did, call they asked me a few questions and where able to change my 2 security questions once they fixed it I was able to log in and change my password but now I write down my passwords and keep them in a very secure location just in case I ever needed them again it really does help. I hope that this will help you in any form of trying to change your security questions.

  • HT201303 What about changing the security questions not the apple id password

    I'm trying to buy an app on the app store it asked for my apple id which I knew but then it asked for two additional passwords for verification I inputted those in but it said they where wrong I tried several more times all the answers where the ones I thought I used originally but no. My question is how do you change theses two passwords and not the main apple id password but the back up ones.

    Ok, so I had the same problem. What you should do is, call the

    And ask for the Account Security Team. This worked for me.

  • HT201303 change the security questions - forgot

    Does anyone how to change the security questions, when I have forgotten them all?

    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 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)

    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!

  • When i want to change the security questions they sent an email to a different email address then the alternate email addresses

    when i want to change the security questions they sent an email to a different email address then the alternate email addresses

    The reset link will send reset info to the rescue email account that you put on your account - alternate email addresses are different email addresses, they are not used for resetting questions.
    If you don't have access to your rescue email account (you won't be able to change it until you can answer your questions) then you will have to contact Support in your country (and which is therefore on your iTunes account) to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : Contact Apple for help with Apple ID account security
    If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    When they've been reset you can then change your rescue email address for potential future use (but it can't be the same as any other address on the account) : Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses
    Or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : Frequently asked questions about two-step verification for Apple ID

  • How do we change the security questions

    How do we change the security questions?  We bought a new ipod and restored it with previous data through icloud.  It has a gift card with funds still attached to it.  We know the ID and password, but since it is a new device it is forcing us to answer the security questions.  The ipod is for my son, but we as parents set up the itune account, and now between my wife and I can't remember who's - or what - we used to answer them.

    Hi snowbagel,
    To reset your account security questions your identity will have to be verified and iTunes Store support can't do that through mail support.  You may find contacting Apple through the phone to be a quicker solution:
