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.

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.
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 half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

HT5312 Security questions reset help

I had just gotten an iTunes card and I just cashed it last night, but I can't download anything untill I answer my security questions. Is there a way to reset my security questions without it losing the money? I only know one security question.

Didn't the link to contact the iTunes Store staff in the 'Additional Information' section of that article work for you? If you don't already have a valid rescue email address, only Apple itself can assist with recovering lost answers.

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 When I request a security question reset I do not receive an email to reset them, AT ALL. Why?

When I request a security question reset, I do not receive an email to do so. Why?
I have requested it many time at many different times and I have not received a single email to reset the security questions.

We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, we won't know why. You've checked the spam folder on your rescue email account as well as the inbox ? If it's not there either then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.

I did not receive email of security question reset

Hi.
I recently bought an iPad Air 2 64gb 4g. I wanted to purchase new app when it asked to authorize my apple ID for the first time on this device, and by answering my security questions. I've forgotten the answers so I used the link in my account management page to be sent the reset info to my alternative email. When I clicked the link it said the email was sent successfully and I should follow the steps it would say.
The problem is no email comes to me even after two days and several attempts with sign out/in in between.
My alternative email has nothing in spam folder.
My alternative email receives all emails I tested.
I changed my alternative email in my account successfully but that link of reset email under security question boxes still shows my previous alternative email as for the address to be used.
I was able to change every other detail of my account.
My Questions are:
1. Why apple is not sending me the email even after noticing it as successful?
2. Why although I changed the alternative email, there is still my previous one shown as the destination for reset email? So how can I change the destination shown in the link of security questions reset inquiry?
Thanks in advance

The reset email should have been sent to your rescue email address, alternate email addresses are different and not used for account security - is it your rescue email account that you've checked, or just your alternate email address ?
You won't be able to view and/or change your rescue email address until you can answer your questions, if the email isn't there then you will have to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : Contact Apple for help with Apple ID account security
If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
When they've been reset you can then view and/or change your rescue email address for potential future use (you won't be able to set it to be the same as any other email address on the account) : 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

If you don't have access to your rescue email account (you won't be able to change it until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple : 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

TS1424 iTunes Security questions reset?

i need to verity my new phone to buy off of itunes via mobile.
Problem: I cannot remember the answers to my security questions!
can I get the answers sent to me or can i get them reset?
thanks!

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)
