I bought $30 worth of iTunes gift cards on my iPod. But it asked me to answer my security questions. note DOES NOT HAVE OPTION TO USE RESCUE EMAIL UNDERNEATH. I had this account on my previous iPod but didn't have this problem

In the security questions area it is supposed to say below CANT REMEMBER ANSWERS? and has a blue link to email you. I DONT have that option,
Please help, thanks

It is likely asking because it is a new/different device.

    I am trying to reset the Security Questions as I have forgotten them, when I have logged into My Apple Id, and click on the button to reset the Security Questions, it states it is sending an email to the Primary Email address. I do not have the option to input a Rescue Email address, the only option I have is to input an Alternate Email address, which I have done so.
    Also when I have tried to book an appointment throuth Online Support, I have not successful, I have rung a telephone number provided by the Mac Store in Perth, Australia and the reply provided is that we are closed. I was given to understand that Apple provided 24/7 Support to their users.

  • I have an itunes gift card from the uk but i live in france and therefore have a french bank account. itunes won't let me redeem the money from the card because my itunes information is french. Can anyone help me?

    Hello,
    I have an itunes gift card from the uk but i live in france and therefore have a french bank account. itunes won't let me redeem the money from the card because my itunes information is french. Can anyone help me?
    Thanks,
    Drew

    Sorry, but you cannot use a UK iTunes card in any country other than the UK. Sell or give the card to someone in the UK and buy a French prepaid card.
    Regards.

    Reset Security Questions
    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
    Manage My Apple ID
    Or you can email iTunes Support at iTunes Store Support.
    If all else fails:
      1. Go to: Apple Express Lane;
      2. Under Product Categories choose iTunes;
      3. Then choose iTunes Store;
      4. Then choose Account Management;
      5. Now choose iTunes Store Security and answer the bullet questions, then click
          Continue;
      6. Sign in with your Apple ID and press Continue;
      7. Under Contact Options fill out the information and advise iTunes that you would
          like your security/challenge questions reset;
      8. Click Send/Continue.
    You should get a response within 24 hours by email.
    In the event you are unsuccessful then contact AppleCare - Contacting Apple for support and service.
    Another user had success doing the following:
    I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
    Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
      a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
          tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
      b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
          "done", in the upper right corner
      c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
          Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
          should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
          security questions.
      d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
          selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
          should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
          questions.
    It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
    Good Luck friends!

  • I purchased a 15$ iTunes gift card and redeemed it but then I accidentally reset my iPad, how do I get my 15$ iTunes gift card back

    I purchased a 15$ iTunes gift card and redeemed it but never used it and then I accidentally reset my iPad 2 and now when I enter the gift card numbers it says it has already been redeemed! Can anyone please help me out with this

    The credit should be on your account.
    You shoudl not have to re-enter anything.
    It should stay on your account where you can access it from any computer/device with itunes.
    Just sign into your account.

    I wanted to use an itunes gift card in the ibookstore, but it charged my credit card automatically without giving me any other option.

    None for payment
    After establishing the Credit Card account (i.e. after you have made purchases), you can remove the credit card information by editing your payment info, choosing "None".

  • HT4943 I bought a magazine subscription on my iPAD and after being charged, it does not come up on my screen.  Has anyone had this problem?

    I bought a magazine subscription on my iPAD and after being charged, it does not come up on my screen.  Has anyone had this problem?
    When I click on the magazine, my screen is just blank.  I can see the purchase, and in my settings/store, the magazine shows "ON".

    I would do a power cycle/reset of your device first, if you haven't, to rule that out.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    If that doesn't help, talking to iTunes customer support would be in order...or whoever you purchased the magazine subscription through. 
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/
    If the magazine is browser based, you might also try another browser.  I like "Atomic Browser".  It is available on the app store.

  • Since day light savings, events are not saving in my calendar. Has anyone else had this problem?, Since day light savings, events are not saving in my calendar. Has anyone else had this problem?

    Since day light savings, events are not saving in my calendar. Has anyone else had this problem?, Since day light savings, events are not saving in my calendar. Has anyone else had this problem?

    Greetings,
    I have not heard of that issue although some people have reported events showing an hour earlier / later (though I haven't seen that personally).
    Questions:
    What version of the Mac OS are you running (Apple > About this Mac)?
    Can you make an event and then it just disappears?
    Are you using iCloud / MobileMe / Google / Yahoo / Some other server based calendar?
    Try these in order:
    Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Language & Text > Formats > Region. Region should be set to the country of your choice. Do not have it set to "Custom" as this can have unexpected results in the iCal window.
    Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Date & Time and make sure the Date and Time are correct and that the correct Time Zone is selected.
    If that doesn't resolve the issue:
    1. First make an iCal backup:  Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
    2. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
    3. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
    --- NOTE: To get to "Home > Library" in Lion: Click anywhere on the desktop and then click on the "Go" menu at the top of the computer screen while holding down the "option" key on the keyboard.  You will see "Library" in the menu.
    4. Launch iCal and test.
    If the issue persists:
    1. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
    2. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
    --- NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
    3. Launch iCal and test.
    Hope that helps.
