If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account then the steps on this page will give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6170
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 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 on this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5620

  • I got a new iPhone and i am trying to buy songs but when I go to buy a song on iTunes it says I have to answer my security questions and I don't remember the answers. I pressed where it says for them to email you your answers but I haven't gotten an email

    I got a new iPhone and i am trying to buy songs but when I go to buy a song on iTunes it says I have to answer my security questions and I don't remember the answers. I pressed where it says for them to email you your answers but I haven't gotten an email.  Is there another way to change or get the answers for the security questions?

    If the email hasn't arrived after a few hours and isn't in a spam filter, 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.

  • How to purchase apps in App Store? When I am trying to buy those apps, it is asking for my card details. I have entered my debit card number and then it asked for 3 digit security code. I have entered cvv secure code but it is showing an invalid security

    Debit cards are no longer accepted in the iTunes Store, it seems. The current valid payment methods are listed here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552
    You can try contacting the iTunes Store and asking if there is any way to use your card, but they probably will tell you that it's not possible.
    http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    Using a debit card in any online service where it stores your card is a bad idea in any case since if someone gains access to your account in the service, they can quickly drain your bank account. Credit cards limit your liability, as do prepaid iTunes cards.

  • Having lost my password, et al., I obtained a new one successfully, but now when I tried to make a purchase, I was asked for my Security Code. How do I obtain a new one since I have lost all my iPad documentation?

    That refers to the 3 digit security code on the back of your credt card, not a security code for the iPad.

    You can't do anything. You have encountered the activation lock. Unless you have some sort of contact with the previous owner you have bought a very expensive paper weight.
    You can find out more about activation lock from Apple's site here: Find My iPhone Activation Lock - Apple Support

  • Skype trying to buy me stuff without me asking for...

    Today i recieved a message from skype saying that my subrscribtion has been successfully cancelled and im PRETTY darn sure i never actually subscribed to them or anything... It later said something about me trying to buy something but that something went wrong and therefor no money was taken from my account. and im also PRETTY sure i i havent bought anything related to skype lately. Now i didn't loose any money but it looked like skype was trying its very best to make me. Whats wrong with my skype? It said something about trying to take kr 344,86 from my paypal but without success... what the flip is going on?!?!?!?

    Hi, Leasen, and welcome to the Community,
    Not to alarm you, however your post reads to me like someone is attempting to compromise or hijack your account.  Change your Skype account password immediately as a pro-active measure.  You are correct: Skype does not force purchases on its customers.
    I would also strongly recommend changing your PayPal account password as well.
    Skype's anti-fraud filters may block or suspend your account if continued efforts are made to place purchases which fail to process, at which point you will need to contact Skype Customer Service to recover access to your account.
    Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
    As you know you intend to contact Customer Service, skip past Step 2 of the instruction where several articles from the FAQ library will appear for you to review, and proceed to Step 3, Continue Support Request (the "button" appears at the lower right corner of the website page). You may also skip past in Step 4 where you will be referred back here to the Community; no need to do this as the Community is where you started.
    Regards,
    Elaine

  • HT4113 hello, I have an Iphone 4 and im trying to "erase all content and settings" but it asks for a passcode that i have no idea what is. its none of my previous passcodes ive ever had. What should i do to find out that passcode?

    Hello im trying to "erase all content and settings" on my iphone 4, but it keeps asking for a 4 digit passcode and i have no idea what that passcode is. It's none of my previous passwords I've had on the phone since i've used it. How do i find out that Passcode?

    Are you sure it's asking for a four digit code?
    iOS 7 has a new feature called Activation Lock.  It requires your Apple ID and password before doing something like an iPhone reset.  This is a new anti-theft feature.

    Call Apple Care for your country and the 1st tier agent should be able to assist you or transfer your call to the Account Security team.

  • MY ITUNES GIFT CARD DOES NOT WORK. FOR 3 DAYS I'VE BEEN TRYING TO BUY SONGS, AND IT DOES NOT WORK. I NEED A PHONE NUMBER TO SPEAK TO SOMEONE.

    THIS IS LIKE THE FOURTH TIME I AM WRITING ABOUT THIS. FOR THREE DAYS I'VE BEEN TRYING TO BUY SONGS PAYING WITH AN ITUNES GIFT CARD, I DID SIGN IN, PUT THE CODE OF THE CARD WHERE IT SAID "REDEEM", AND IN ITUNES, NEXT TO MY SIGN IN NAME, APEAR THE $15. OF MY CARD, BUT WHEN I CLICK THE SONG I WANT TO BUY, IT ASK ME AGAIN FOR MY PASSWORD, THEN FOR A SECURITY QUESTIONS WHICH I DON'T KNOW, IS EITHER THAT OF ASK MY TO UPDATE MY CREDIT CARD INFO, "BUT" I'M NOT PAYING WITH MY CREDIT CARD.
    PLEASE, HOW CAN I BUY THE SONGS USING MY ITUNES GIFT CARD PLAIN AND EASY??????
    I NEED A PHONE NUMBER TO CALL SOMEONE IN APPLE/ITUNES WHO REALLY KNOW HOW TO DO THIS,.
    I AM WRITING FROM MASSACHUSETTS.
    THIS IS RIDICULOUS!!

    (Typing all in capitals is considered shouting, makes posts difficult to read and may mean that people are less likely to reply.)
    There isn't a phone number for iTunes Support.
    If you've forgotten your answers to your security questions then you can get them reset : If you forgot the answers to your Apple ID security questions
    If you have a credit card on your account then its details have to complete - and asking for their details is also a way of checking that you have a valid billing address in that country. As long as you are buying content for yourself and not trying to gift content (you can't use your balance for gifting) then the purchase price (plus any applicable taxes) should be deducted from your balance. If it's not then you contact iTunes Support :  http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • Trying to Buy Songs thru iTunes - can't get it done - What's wrong?

    I just got my ipod. Did all the signup stuff - downloaded itunes 7.2. Went to the store - found a song - clicked buy song. It takes me to a screen promoting the new version of itunes. I have alrady downloaded that -- 3 times now -- rebooting the computer after each time. My PC confirms - i've installed it -- but i downloaded it again anyway. Anyway - I do go back to the store after each install and click "buy song" again. Same result.
    How do i get to the next step. There are no other instructions on that screen.
    Is there another place i can buy music?
    Any and all help appreciated...

    Maybe try downloading and installing the update manually via this website:
