The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.
2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contact Apple support.
3. Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.
A substitute for using the security questions is to use 2-step verification:

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.

Every time I try and change my answers the security questions it says an email has been sent to reset them but I still haven't gotten the email?
If it's not in a spam filter, you need to contact Apple. Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.

I cannot find the answers to my security questions for ITunes and cannot figure out how to reset the questions.
You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

I forgot my security questions and i can't find a way to reset them
i can't reset my security questions since i forgot my old ones
Click here for information. If the option to have the answers emailed to you isn't available or doesn't work(the email may take a few hours to arrive), contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in the 'Additional Information' section of that article.
Without a rescue email address, you can't reset them yourself. Nobody on these boards can reset them for you.

HT201303 My security questions aren't working is there a way to reset them?
My ID keeps asking for security questions I dont remember them is there a way I can get them or reset them?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You might try to see if you can change your security questions. Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account > Password and Security.
I'm able to do this, others say they need to input answers to their current security questions in order to make changes, I'm inclined to think its worth a try, you don't have anything to lose.
If that doesn't help you might try contacting Apple through Express Lane (select your country, navigate to iCloud help and enter the serial number of one of your devices) -

account security
Please call apple @ 1-800-692-7753 in USA
ask for the account security team
you may want to add a credit card to your iTunes account before calling; so they will have a way to verify your identity.

I just received my new iPad, and I've been buying songs and apps with no problems until iTunes asked me my security questions... I totally forgot the answers! I've already reset my password, and that didn't help. I also tried adding a new email address and that didn't help either. Can anyone help?
If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551 -

Hi can anyone help me with my question
The reset link will show under the two questions on your account if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account. If you aren't getting the link then you don't have a rescue email address, and you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions - 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 you can then add a rescue email address (by answering the two questions on that screen) for potential future use (steps 1 to 7 half-way down this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312) -
I forgot my answers to my security questions and I have not received the email to reset my answers
I check my email and yet no email has been sent and I know I'm using the same email as my Apple ID.
The reset email will be sent to your rescue email account, that won't (can't) be the same as the primary email address (or any other address) on your account.
If you aren't receiving it to your rescue email aaccount (or you don't know what it is), then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

Does anyone know how to rest their security questions because I have forgotten mine!
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 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
