I forgot my answers to my security questions and the email that is suppose to send to change them won't send and I can't purchase anything on iTunes on my new iPhone without them.
The email for instructions says it sent but I don't get anything new in my inbox, it works for other email from iTunes though.

TS1702 I forgot my security questions and I can't purchase anything off the app store
I was trying to purchase pages the app and it asked me for my password so I put it then it said enter your answers for the security questions I couldn't remember them. So now I can't purchase apps help!!!!???
Are you certain you already answered them in the past? Or is it asking you for the first time?
If it's the latter then simply answer the questions. Remember your answers.
If it's the former, and you don't remember your answers:
Go to https://appleid.apple.com
Click the blue "Manage Your Apple ID" button
Sign in with your Apple ID and password
Choose "Password and Security" from the left column
Choose "Reset your security information"
Confirm your identity by answering your existing security questions, if required (see below).
You may then choose new questions or change your existing answers. I recommend the option to create your own custom security question, since most of the other options are inane.
Important: On that page you may enter a "Rescue Email Address". That's important to have in the event you are unable to answer your existing questions in the future. If you forget the answers to your security questions, and without a "Rescue Email Address" your only recourse will be to contact iTunes Support via email. That will entail a couple of days of back-and-forth correspondence so that Apple can confirm you are really you.
Apple gets thousands of such emails every day so be patient.
If you haven't yet entered a "Rescue Email Address" do it now! -
i really need help fast.
Click here for information. If you can't get the answers emailed to you for some reason(the email may take a few hours to arrive), contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in that article.
If you can't wait that long, phone Apple, and if you're desperate, create a new Apple ID.

I forgot my answer to my security question and I am required to enter it because it will be my 1st time to purchase on my new ipad.. Is there some way to retrieve it?
From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5665 :
If you have three security questions and a rescue email address, sign in to My Apple ID and select the “Password and Security” tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers.
If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID password, sign in to My Apple ID and select the “Password and Security” tab to reset your security question.
If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID password, contact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
If you can’t reset them via the above instructions (you won't be able to add a rescue email address until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact Support in the country where you and your iTunes account are to get the questions reset.

When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 -
