HT6170 I forgot my security question answers and when i get to that screen, there isn't an option to send security info to my email on file. Any thoughts?
I am trying to authorize a new I-Mac for my I-tunes account. I am being asked my security questions and I don't remember the answers. The online help shows a way to get your answers emailed to the address on file. There is not that option for me when that screen pulls up.
You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Hi! So I haven't used iTunes in a few months but I just got an iTunes gift card and want to make a purchase. iTunes redeemed it just fine but now that I want to make a purchase I am having problems. I can't remember my security question answers and iTunes is requesting them. I have two other verified emails but the are NOT rescue emails. I can't contact iTunes over the phone because my phone lines are out and are going to be out for a long time. The only way I can contact them is by email. How can I do this? Is there an easy way to just reset all my security questions? Please help a girl out. I just want my music!

We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
If you aren't receiving the email to your rescue email account (and you've checked the spam folder on the account as well as the inbox, and tried clicking the reset link again) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
