HT5312 Security Questions Forgotten

I seem to have read and reread the article about forgotten security questions a million times, but still I can't seem to get it right.
I have tried to verify my rescue email, but for some reason it does not want to verify, and I cannot access my itunes store, since I can't remember my security questions.
Must this be so difficult? Please just help me reset my answers to those stupid questions, or at least let us choose our own questions, so that I can remember the answers.
Help!!!

Most of the people on these forums, including myself, are fellow users - you're not talking to iTunes Support here.
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 you won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset.
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
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

HT5312 Security question forgotten

Hi,I want to buy some apps today.
While I was ready to purchase , the store ask me to answer my security questions.
But I had already forgot my answer !
Now I can't purchase any app, help ! Thanks!

The page that you posted from has instructions for how to reset them i.e. if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 half-way down that page should give you a reset link.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.

HT5312 security questions reset link

So, I went to go reset my security questions because when i first joined apple i was 10 years old and am now 16, and i have no idea what those answers are now. I clicked on the correct links and tabs and what not until i got to my security questions, in the directions and diagram of how to reset them, ther is a blue link that says, "send reset security info email to [email protected]" In the diagram the link is there, but on the actual page, it's not. As of now, i can't use the $25 that i put onto my account on my phone because of these security questions. Therefore, i can't buy apps, music, or anything else on my phone until i do the security questions.

We have requested reset emails be sent to the rescue email address; however, the messages never arrive and we have been unable to answer the current questions correctly.
This is preventing us from being able to purchase anything from the iTunes store on our iPod Touch or iPad mini.
Any suggestions?

HT5312 security questions reset

cant get security questions reset, apple verified via email, still can purchase in itunes store.

What do you mean that you can't get them reset ? Do you mean that you aren't getting the reset link on your account (if you aren't then you don't have a rescue email address) or that you aren't receiving the reset email to that account ?
If you aren't getting the reset link then you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions), or you have one but aren't receiving the reset email to it (you've checked the spam folder on that account and tried clicking the reset link again?), then you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.

An alternate email isn't the same as a rescue email. Creating or changing a rescue email would be a means of bypassing them.
