HT5312 I have forgotten my security questions
I was trying to buy an app for my iphone but i had forgotten my security questions / answers.
I tried to contact apple support regarding this via the website (frustrating!!!!)
I read how to create a rescue email .... So I went to my account ..... Pressed on manage passwords and security ...
AND it asked me for my security questions AGAIN!
No link for rescue email !!!!
My account got locked Out!!!!!
So i followed the useless link to contact Customer SUPPORT!!!!
COME ON APPLE for a world class company you have THIRD world customer support.
P.S. there is no way to email anybody .. its crazy !!!
I wont buy the APP
You can't create a rescue email address without correctly answering two of the questions. Instead, either call Apple and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.

I noticed a week or two ago that somebody had downloaded something on my apple account and it was not me and it was not on any device I own. I changed my password but now I cannot buy anything since whenever I try to, it makes me confirm my identity by answering my security questions. I think I know the answers to these questions but I can never get it right, so I suspect that they were changed. I also noticed that my rescue email is not my own. I want to reset my security questions, and in order to do that I need to have access to my rescue email. I want to change my rescue email but in order to do that I need to answer my security questions. What can I do in this situation?
You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

Can you give the security questions again i don't remember one of them?
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, it has been reported that the email can take a while to arrive. 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. -

How do you change your rescue email if you have forgotten your security questions?
I've had my IPad for about 2 years now and I have bought a lot of apps since but all of a sudden it asks me to answer my security questions whenever i try to buy an app! I click the link to the apple Id page and it says resend security information to my email. apparently the end of my email ends with yahoo.com and whenever I log on to that it's yahoo.ca and I cannot find the email with the instructions to change my security questions!! So please me as this has never occurred before! How do you change your rescue email if you have forgotten your security questions? And can you somehow purchase apps without answering your security questions because I just put 25 dollars onto my apple id and I don't want it to go to waste! Please help me!
