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.

I got a $25 itunes card and loaded it onto my account no problem, then I go to buy some music and it makes me answer security questions I don't remember so I requested for the link to reset them (I've done it numerous times many days in a row) and the link never sends. I've also done many things on the apple website and tried using the itunes store on my laptop and nothing is working. Help?
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.

I have been buying itunes for about a year and a half with no trouble and within the past month everytime I tried to buy music it keeps asking me for answers to security questions that I do not know the answers to as I don't even remember doing this when i started with itunes - AND I won't have an alternate recovery email as I only have one email.
I have attempted three times now to go through apple support to no avail as i keep giving them my phone number - no one calls (cause I am home each time the date I check off) and then I get an email saying we tried to contact you but there was no answer! very strange!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!You can only get reset info sent to a rescue email addres, which is not the same thing as an alternate email address - they are different settings/addresses on an account. If you don't have a rescue email address (and you can't add one without being able to answer 2 of your questions) then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

I am trying to purchase an app and when I try to it tells me to login. When I log in it ask me security questions which I don't even remember the answers to. I put, "forgot answers" and it says, "we can help you reset your security information by sending a message to your rescue email address: [email protected]" I only have one email and thats on Yahoo. i still click send email button and it tells me to check my email but i dont recieve anything. please help me
That's not a good sign if it said it was going to send it to an email address you've never heard of. Contact iTunes Support and let them know this: http://apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

I have a question about my Apple ID security questions that I don't remember?
Alright, so I don't know my security question answers. However i can buy things from the app store/whatever, i just want to know them. Because when I go to "Manage my apple ID" and i log in and go to the Password and Security section of it, thats where it asks me for my answers to the security questions. So, for future reference if i need go change something on my apple ID in terms of Password/Security I need to know my security questions answers. Thats why i want to know them, even though it isn't a problem right now.
So with that said, I know i have to call apple support to reset my security questions because i do not have a rescue email with the security questions, and the link of course doesn't show up under where its supposed to be.
So my point is, i was wondering if when i call apple support to ask about this (i already set it up for me to call them when I'm ready) if I'm gonna get charged money for calling them just so they can reset my security questions? Or is this free to do? Since its just security questions issue again? If i have to pay to talk to them i won't do it. I only want to know them again cause last time i reset them my dad called, i think, anyways i don't remember them and i doubt my dad will remember the answers. We might have wrote it down but i don't know where that paper is now. Thank you.Well crafted story = kudos, but try this User Tip FIRST

I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help switching the old apple ID because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions or the login for that old email.
You cannot do that. The AppleID you used to create the iCloud account is an active primary email address. The email address you created with the iCloud account is also an active primary email address (all Apple domain email address automatically become AppleIDs as well). You cannot replace the primary email address on one active AppleID with the primary email address on another, active AppleID.
You can use your iCloud email/AppleID with iTunes, but it will be a separate account, so all your previous purchases remain tied to the other AppleID you have.
I don't understand your statement that you could not remeber your old AppleID password, as you would have had to use it to create the iCloud account in the first place (the first step of creating the iCloud account required you to login with your existing AppleID and password)? -

I am wanting to use my iTunes gift card but it says that I have to verify my account. I thought I had already done this. It says I have to answer two security questions but I can't remember the answers to the questions. When I go to change the answers to something I will remember It keeps sending the email to an old email account. How do I change this. It is very annoying
