HT201303 Why we should set those security questions while buying movies?
Why we should set those security questions while buying movies?
Can we skip those personal questions?
Why can't we make our own ones?
This makes me feel uncomfortible because I am forced to do that.
Thanks HACKINT0SH.
Any chance to make our own questions? Per-defined questions may not always link to personal background well and in that case people will easily forget those answers.
If the answer is no, anyway to pass the feedback to Apple and tell them not to do secure but stupid things?

Every time I try to download a new app, a pop-up comes up telling me to set three security questions. And when I try to set them using the provided link it takes me to a page and keeps asking for my password even after I enter it in multiple times. So, is there another way to set my security questions or is there a way to just get rid of the pop-ups? Thanks.
This is for additional security to protect your Apple ID.
Try setting your security questions for your Apple ID with a browser on your computer instead.

i can`t use apple store. my apple id needs my paswoord, to set the security questions, after I introduce the paswoord it askes for the paswoord again and again! it doesn`t work, and the paswoord is the right one. What can i do?
I have figured out already. Firstly please try:
1) Installing iBooks on your iPhone via iTunes on PC/MAC
2) Adjust the time of your iPhone to 6 months ahead (e.g. 2013 May)
3) Close all apps currently running, clear Safari cache and history, sign out of Apple ID (Settings>iTunes & App Stores), reboot your device
4) Open iBooks on your iPhone, download any 1 book
5) System should prompt you to enter 3 security questions
6) Enter your answer and click "Done" at bottom right part of your input keyboard (Do not press upper right button)
7) Done!
I cannot imagine the system has gone so stupid. Apple, please retify the problem ASAP. -
The App Store want allow me to download new apps because I have not set up security questions.But I share an iTunes account with my friend. So if I set up the questions will my friend have to use and answer the same thing?
They will have to be answered the first time when purchasing from a new computer or device.

Why is iTunes asking for security questions?
Why is iTunes asking for security questions?
Hello Loopdog,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Apple uses security questions to provide you with a secondary method to identify yourself online or when contacting Apple Support.
For more information on this, take a look at this article:

Best of luck,

How to re-set my security questions
I have gone through the steps to re-set my security questions because I forgot one answer but for some reason I am not getting the option to use the alternative email. Can anyone help?
You need to use your rescue e-mail, not your 'alternative' e-mail.

When I sign in to my Apple ID in "My Apple ID" and go to "Passwod and Security" I should answer the security questions but I don't remeber them and the bar that says "send to rescue email" doesn't show !! How could I recover the questions??
You will have to contact iTunes Support and tell them you have forgotten your Security Questions and need them reset. They will respond to you by email, usually within 24 hours. Here are two links to contact iTunes Support:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/ww/
or by email:

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! -
Your security questions do not match what I put in when I opened the account, why can't I get security questions that have my answers?
From a Kappy post
The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.
2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contact Apple support.
3. Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.
A substitute for using the security questions is to use 2-step verification:

I set a security question and i forgot it
i set a security question and i forgot it
<Edited by Host>That number is the temporary support pin that you provide to the Applecare rep when on the phone. Call Applecare, ask for account security, and they will ask for the Pin as part of the Verification process.

I Can't buy anything from iTunes as I haven't set any security questions but they keep asking me questions
If you log into your account on http://appleid.apple.com and select the Password And Security section of your account are you able to set them ? If not then is there a reset link beneath the questions that show on that screen (it all only show if you have have a rescue email address on your account) ?
If not then you will have to contact Support in your country 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 on this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5620
Or, if it's available in your country, you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570 -
HT5312 I don't remember ever setting up security questions. How can I set them up or change them
How can I setup (or change) security questions. I don't remember ever setting up security questions but it asks me questions and I can't purchase anything because there are no answers.
If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate 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 (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then see if this user tip helps you get the questions reset : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551
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 try Apple ID Account Security
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 -
