HT4759 I can't remember my answer to the security question and I need to reset my apple id password
hi I have tried to reset my password and cannot do it. I can't remember what date of birth I used (I don't usually use my real one) and when I tick the option to send an email to my address, I can't receive the email because I can't log in to my apple id
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Start here (change country if necessary) and navigate to 'Password and Security', reset your security questions using the link provided, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
If that doesn't help, you don't receive a reset email or you don't have a rescue address, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.

I do not remember my answers to the security questions and when I go in to manage my account the questions come up. There is no place for me to retrieve the answers to get in. What do I do.
That's because you never registered a rescue email address. The only way to resolve this now is to contact iTunes Support. They are the only ones that can help.

I can't get into my iTunes account! My username and password match, my telephone number and address matches, but I can't remember those security questions!! What can I do?
Click here for information. If the option to have the answers emailed to you isn't available or doesn't work(the email may take a few hours to arrive), contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in the 'Additional Information' section of that article.
Without a rescue email address, you can't reset them yourself. Nobody on these boards can reset them for you.

I forgot the answers for the security questions and when I try to change them (My Apple ID -> Manage your account -> Password and Security) I'm asked to answer the exact questions I'm trying to change because I don't remember the answers. How can I do it?
Can't you try the email option instead?

How do I find my password if I can't remember the answers to the security questions and the email address it is sending the password to no longer exists?
If you have a rescue 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 set up 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, I think, about 24 to 48 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox) -
Am I do not know how to change my rescue email as it is wrong and in can not remember my answers to my security questions so I want to change them but I can't as I have the wrong rescue email anyone know how to change your rescue email
You won't be able to change it until you can answer 2 of your questions - 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 you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to update your rescue email address for potential future use. -
