If you don’t know your security questions, phone Apple (using the number listed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 ) and ask for the Account Security Team.

1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.
2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contact Apple support.
3. Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.
A substitute for using the security questions is to use 2-step verification:

HT1937 Is there a way to change my Apple ID security questions ? I forgot the answers for them
I am having trouble figuring out how to change my security questions.
Does anyone know how to change them ?You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Why doesn't the 'rescue email' option show up when I try to change my security questions?
I have tried and failed over and over to change the answers to my security questions. Short of calling Support, because I hear they're always pretty busy, how am I supposed to change them? Obviously I can't use my alternate email because iTunes did not offer me that option when I first tried to change them.
Do you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account ? If you do then 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 then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551 -

when I go to change my security questions there is a not forgot option how do I get this to work?
That option will only appear if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account. If it's not appearing then I assume that you don't have one, in which case see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

I am not able to change my password. I obviously forgot the answers of the secret questions. I tried by email, but received no email. What to do?
I have the same problem -- no email arrives when I try to reset my password.
I'm syncing my iPhone 5 to iTunes and keep getting messages about all the content that will not sync because "not authorized."
So I try to login to my Apple ID
- password is wrong
- follow the link to reset password
- chose "send email" but no email arrives (I even check 'junk' folder to be sure)
- go back to reset password and try "Answer security questions"
- says my DoB is wrong but I'm sure DoB is correct and there's no way forward
So what is the solution? Re-purchase all the content that won't sync?
