I did not recieve an e-mail from apple about the change of security questions. What do i do ?

I want to buy something on the app store but they asked me to do some security questions. But i forgot the answers. So, i went to "Manage Apple ID" and clicked the send e-mail button. But i did not recieve it. I checked the spam and trash but did not see anything regarding the security questions. What do i do ?

How to reset your Apple ID security questions.
Go to appleid.apple.com, click on the blue button that says 'Manage Your Apple ID'.
Log in with your Apple ID and password. (If you have forgotten your Apple ID password, go to iforgot.apple.com first to reset your password with a password recovery email)
Go to the Password & Security section on the left side, and click on the link underneath the security questions that says 'Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to [email]'.  This will generate an automated e-mail that will allow you to reset your security questions.
If that doesn't work, or if there is no rescue email link available, then click on 'Temporary Support PIN' that is in the bottom left side, and generate a 4-digit PIN for the Apple Account Security Advisor you will be contacting later.
Next, go to https://getsupport.apple.com
(If you see a message that says 'There are no products registered to this Apple ID, simply click on 'See all products and services')
Choose 'More Products & Services', then 'Apple ID'.
A new page will open.
Choose 'Other Apple ID Topics', then 'Forgotten Apple ID Security Questions'.
Click the blue 'Continue' button.
Select the contact option that suits your needs best.

  • I won't receive an e-mail from Apple about changing my security questions

    Okay, so I wanted to buy something on iTunes, but then this thing came up, saying since it was my first time buying something on this device, I had to answer my security questions. The thing is, I don't remember them! I made them over 2 years ago, and never had to use them until now. So I signed in onto my account, and pressed "Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to r•••••@yahoo.com" I'm not sure if the r*****@yahoo.com appears for everyone, or if it's "my" e-mail account, but just showing the first letter. Thing is, I don't remember making en e-amil account starting with r. My Apple ID is my e-mail account. The one I had when I got my first Apple device. I've always used it for Apple stuff, so why won't I receive an e-mail from Apple about this? I received one when I put my phone number in my payment options just yesterday, and when I changed my password as well, so I don't get why I don't get the imformation about changing my security questions. I really want new songs

    You need to contact Apple to get the questions reset. Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.

  • Why Did I get An E-mail From Apple, Saying free Apple iPhone 3G?

    When I got my iTunes gift card and activated it, I started buying music from the iTunes Store. I get 2 e-mails. One from iTunes and one from Apple. I read the 2 messages but then one of them explains and tells me that I can get a iPhone 3G (Black 8GB) Free of charge? if I just update to 2.1. I have a old generation iPhone. Does this mean that I just got a free iPhone 3G (Black 8GB).
    P.S:
    The messages says that I need to write my serial number, Does this mean I just got a message from a hacker who wants to hack my iPhone or does this mean Apple is really offering me this?.
    Please somebody reply I have no idea why would apple send me this message, and it tells me that the sponsor was from the CEO of Apple (Steve Jobbs).

    This is the e-mail :
    We would like to thank you for registering with iTunes and MobileMe, we have noticed that you had a 1st Gen iPhone.

  • I keep getting mail from Apple about validating my account and now I need to sanitize my email. Is this a hoax as they want my credit card details

    I have been receiving email supposedly from apple asking me to validate my account. I ignored as I thought they were a hoax as they wanted me to verify my CC details. Now I'm getting mail saying I'm transmitting virsus mitting viruses and I need to verify my credit card details.??  Is this real or hoax as it also saying if I don't it will lead to permanent deactivation immediately. HELP

    It is absolutely a fake. Do not, I repeat do not, respond to these emails in any way. You can report them to Apple if you wish:
    [email protected]
    but there's little or nothing they can do about such scams so it's probably not worth the effort and you can just delete the fakes.
    Regards.

  • I forgot my the awnser to my security questions and now it's not letting me download anything . How do I change my security questions?

    I really need to know this because now every time I try to buy something it takes me to the security questions

    I had the exact same problem.  Luckily, I solved it.  Eventually. First, go to:
    www.appleid.apple.com
    Then, you will see a link at the bottom.  It will ask if you have forgotten your answers.  Click the link, and it will send an e-mail to your rescue e-mail. 
    After you have sent the e-mail and received it, click the link in the e-mail.  This will bring you to another web-site.  Click "Manage My Account". 
    From there you can change rescue emails, security questions/answers, phone number, passwords, etc.

  • Official comment from Apple about the drop frame issue?

    Is Apple going to firmware fix the skipping drop frame issue on the Apple tv?
    Or is it hardware related?
    Too many of us seem to have experienced this issue for it not to be addressed.
    It shouldn't be difficult to fix.
    My 1st gen atv was fine.
    I should have kept it.

    Hopefully it can be fixed. Seeing as Apple has not even acknowledged it I returned mine yesterday since I was coming up on my 30 day return deadline. At least this way I'm not stuck with a device that has a hardware issue.
    As of yesterday I have seen this issue on 10 different New Apple TV units, all on different HD sets, different network setups etc. Half of the owners had never noticed it. Two of those were adamant they did not have the problem and one of those still insisted they didn't after I spotted it multiple times. So while the issue has been present on 100% of the units I have seen, its not necessarily noticeable to everyone. I have noticed its much easier to spot on larger displays and when the display quality itself is higher, for example easier to spot on a higher quality 61" 1080p set than a lower quality 720p 26".
    If you have the option I would return the unit. Worse case is your don't have the unit, which is not functioning 1005 anyway, for a short period and then grab it again if the issues get addressed.

  • Emails from Apple about password change

    Good evening all!
    I am asking this for a friend.  She is getting the following problem ...
    She is being inundated with emails from Apple saying she has requested a password change (itunes/books etc) - which she  hasn't. 
    These emails from Apple have been coming regularly for several weeks  and are entitled 'How to reset your password' with a link to reset,  which expires after three hours if you haven't continued.
    She hasn't bought anything from ITunes for a while so cannot understand what is  prompting them. She changed her password about a year ago after receiving a  message checking whether she was aware a different computer had been used  to purchase something (she was - her iPad). 
    Should she be worried that someone is trying to access her account and this is triggering the emails? 
    Thanks for your help.

    Definitely!
    She should immediately change her password - NOT by clicking on any link in an email, but by using a conventional Apple website to do so:

  • Mail did not download my sent mail from Gmail.

    Reposting this question in case I originally put it in the wrong category:
    Had a bit of trouble initially but eventually got my Mail account set up with my existing Gmail account and it nicely downloaded all my past incoming mail which is all in the In Box. However, I can't find my old outgoing mail. The only things I see when I click Sent are the messages sent since I started using Mail. Is there somewhere else I should be looking for them? If not, how do I go about importing them to my new computer now?
    The old outgoing messages are still on my old computer, but that email client is old Eudora— is there a way to import them from the old machine to the new and make them readable with Mail?

    Thank you for responding.
    >Can you visit the Gmail site and see if you can download them from there?
    Can you explain how would I go about doing that?
    As for JustAnswer, they wanted $58 to answer my question which is money I simply don't have.
    I saw the discussion you linked. He said "I figured out the solution to this problem.  I simply deactivated the email and reactivated it.  I guess after the updated to moutain lion that's all I needed to do."
    "Deactivated the email and reactivated" — do you understand what he means?
    I have done a Google search for this topic but no one seems to have this exact problem, and I've put a question up on the Google Gmail help forum with no response yet.
    Do you know how I might go about just undoing the connection I've made between Mail and Gmail so I could just start fresh and hope for a better outcome the second time?

  • Did not recieve confirmation e-mail to set up icloud

    When I downloaded lion to my mac it said it sent me a confirmation e-mail but I never recieved it.  I did check e-mail for filters.  My iphone also said it sent a confirmation e-mail that I never recieved.

    Where it says your email, there should be an arrow next to it. If you click it, it will give you the option to re-send the email. Re-send it and you should receive it.
    Hope this helps (:

  • I can send but not recieve my e-mails from gmail.

    I am able to send messages from my outlook/Thunderbird account through my gmail account, but not receive them. Once in a while I can, but not for the last 3 days. I can go to gmail through google and get them, though. It's not the way I have done it for the past forever years. Please help

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
    1) Register HRT
    KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
    2) Delete and Resend Service Books
    KB05000Delete the service book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account from the BlackBerry smartphone
    KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
    3) Batt Pull Reboot
    Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
    Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should try deleting and re-adding your BIS conduits for the affected email accounts.
    Occam's Razor nearly always applies when troubleshooting technology issues!

Please click here and read, along with the threads to which it links, for helpful information to guide you as you proceed. I always recommend that you treat your BlackBerry like any other computing device, including using a regular backup schedule...click here for an article with instructions.

  • Here's a list from Apple about the new features in Lion

    http://www.apple.com/macosx/whats-new/features.html

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Look at the date of the original post.
    That link is generic, so it always goes to the latest (or imminent) release.
    In June 2011, it was a link to the then-current version OS X, 10.7 Lion.
    A year from now that link will go to the whatever beast the next version is named for.

  • I'm not receiving a 'Reset Password' mail from Apple for my old registered id?

    I received a mail from Apple with regards to change in settings of my iTunes or Apple ID on my Hotmail Account. So I clicked the change account and created a new Account using my Gmail ID. Little did I know, after successfull completion that the apps downloaded using my hotmail id would not be allowed to update using my ne registered gmail id.
    So, I try to login using my old id (yes hotmail). Now the catch is I forgot the pass for this id. So I click 'forgot pass' and a msg comes send email notification.
    Now comes the main point! I'm not recieving a single mail from apple on my pass retrival?! Which means i cannot update my apps (including the paid one's) + I'm scared that my CC deatails will be miss-used on the old id!
    Please help ASAP.
    Regards,
    Rahul

    Hey @mandaB97 - Never recvd any communication from Apple. Never expected this kind of service from Apple. Felt really mind-****** by this thing. Finally I gave up all my paid apps, and started using a new id.
    Felt really horrible, that all my paid apps went down the drain. The app guys couldn't help me too!

  • Im did not recieve an email verification

    Im did not recieve an email verification
    My apple id is [email protected]
    Pls check

    Perhaps the reason why you didn't receive an email confirmation is that may have misspelled your email address. Do you mean "icould" or "icloud"?
