HT201363 I do not recognise the security question or the email to send a reset. All other details are correct

I just wanted to go through all my apple settings and its all correct apart from the security questions. I don't recognise any of these or the email that is part blanked out that you can use to reset. The email here is not any of my email addresses.
Very strange. Any ideas how to reset this?
Thanks

    That's just not right - I mean, it really wrong to have to use a Windows machine to access your Facebook account. Can you pull up Comcast on IE as well?
    Something's going on and I'm surprised that deleting your cache and cookies for those sites didn't work.
    Let me fool around a bit - what's your primary browser?

    That is only present if you have already updated to iOS 5 or later.  If you're on iOS 4 you can only update while connected to your computer's iTunes.

    You can't access iCloud from your iPhone unless you're on iOS 5 or later.  Otherwise, refer to this article:

  • Can not change my security questions after following email

    i have  tryed to purchase itunes but cannot because i have forgotten my answers to security question answers i have followed every instruction giving an still cant get in to change them even the email can any one help me

    What instructions have you followed, and what happened when you followed them ? Have you got a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6170, and if you do have you received the reset email to it ?
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions), or you do but aren't receiving the email to it, then you will need 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

  • Apple ID won't let me change the email I send my 'reset security questions' thing to. How am I able to do this? Thanks

    The alternate email I had was ********** but the link for resetting the security questions made it **********, which ain't a real email address and I can't make it one either Halp...
    <E-mails Edited by Host>

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple - I've asked the hosts to remove the email addresses from your post (it's not a good idea to post personal info on any public forum).
    You won't be able to change your rescue email address (an alternate email address is different) until you can answer your questions, you will have to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset : Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps on this page to change your rescue email address for potential future use : 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

  • I am able t receive e-mails on my ipad3, but not send them. All my settings are correct

    I am able to send e-mails from my ipad3, but not send them. My settings are definately correct

    To expound a little on lllaass post ....
    Go into your email account's settings : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , tap on the account on the right-hand side, go into Account, then SMTP (under Outgoing Mail Server) and try filling in your email account name and password (they might show as 'optional' at the moment) and see if that helps

  • Why does Firefox not support the "text-overflow: ellipsis;" style? All other major browsers support it.

    The "text-overflow: ellipsis;" style is supported by all major browsers EXCEPT Firefox. I had thought that this would have been fixed with Version 4. But it was not. Then I had hoped that it would be fixed in version 5. Yet it still is not supported.
    PLEASE, PLEASE add this support.

    MDN docs say it will be in firefox 7. See

  • What would cause a single user not to be able to edit the fields in a form? All other users are able to edit the form.

    I have a user who is unable to edit his time sheet in Adobe Reader XI. It worked fine in Adobe Reader 9.6. I recently upgraded his reader to version XI and he lost the ability to edit the fields. I re-imaged his machine and re-did his profile. He was able to edit his time sheet. A week later he's back to where he was. He was able to go to another machine with Adobe XI and edit his time sheet but he can't do it on his normal workstation. His time sheet shows the purple bar at the top telling him to fill out the form and that he can save data typed into the form. We're running XP SP3. How can I troubleshoot this?

    My guess would be keyboard related.  I'm guessing the field you're trying to fill has a keystroke event allowing only certain types of character.  If the keyboard is faulty OR if the keyboard's layout (English, french, numLock, capLock) have been changed, allowed character could be someplace else.
    I would first verify the presence of a particular format or a keystroke event in the format tab.  I would then test my layout by typing charaters in another application such as notepad.  Any chance the maximum character allowed would have mistaken be set to 0?
    Also, I see you mentionned:
    He was able to go to another machine with Adobe XI and edit his time sheet but he can't do it on his normal workstation
    By Adobe, I'm guessing you mean Reader.  Is it possible the default application on this other machine is Acrobat instead?  If it is the case, the problem would probably be the way the file was created and maybe it would require to enable Extended features.......

  • My iphone 5s keeps changing time on its own and keeps disconnecting from the wifi and cellular data. All other devices are connected and working. Is it a virus?

    What can i do to fix it? My husband suggests I reset my phone but I'm afraid my data will be wiped off an that would be of total waste if the problem doesn't even get solved. Your help would be much appreciated!

    There is no known malware capable of infecting an iPhone that has not been jailbroken (ie, hacked to allow apps from outside the App Store). If you have jailbroken it, you have exposed yourself to malware, and should restore the phone to factory defaults, without restoring a backup. All data will be lost, but that is unavoidable.
    Most likely, you haven't jailbroken it, in which case you don't have to worry about malware. In that case, it's hard to say what's going on, but there are some things you can try.
    First, try resetting your device. Press and hold both the home button and the sleep/wake button for about 10 seconds, until the screen turns off. Ignore the slider that will appear. Release the buttons, then press and hold the sleep/wake button until the Apple logo appears. This is the equivalent of a reboot, and should not affect your data or apps.
    If that doesn't help, try restoring your device from backups, and if that doesn't help, restore it to factory settings (ie, do not restore a backup). See:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
    If none of that helps, the issue is caused by some kind of hardware problem, and the device will need to be repaired or (more likely) replaced.

  • HT201303 I tried to update my security questions this morning but got timed out.  Ive just tried to get into my account but the system does not recognise the answers to my question.  How can I rectify this problem please

    I was trying to update my Security Questions this morning but got 'Timed Out' I've just tried again to get into my security settings but the system does not recognise the information I'm putting in. Can anyone tell me how I can correct this problem.  I can still log-in.
    Best wishes

    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)
