I forgot my security questions and I can't download any apps. How can I fix the questions without making another account?
I forgot my security questions. I been using the same Apple ID sense 2013. And I already forgot what the security questions were, and now I can't download a 99¢ game. Can I make new security questions without deleting my Apple ID?
Go to the country site from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 or call the country support number from http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 and ask to speak with the Account Security Team.

Creative Cloud is a blank white screen, can't download any apps, how do I fix?
Hello all,
PLEASE HELP!!
I downloaded Ai as a trial version, then purchased CS6 on a 12 month.
Now I'm trying to download other apps (tried Photoshop, Flash and Premiere Pro), however when I click 'download' to try and get the other apps Creative Cloud pops up and it's a blank white screen.
Nothing happens, anthing to click NOTHING.
I've tried shutting the computer down, reinstalling Creative Cloud. Even tried downloading the above programs as trial versions (to start with) but CC just keeps popping up with a blank white screen.
How do I fix, or better still just get the apps I'm after?Hi,
Welcome to the Community!
Rename the opm.db file.
Close the Creative Cloud application if it's running.
Navigate to the OOBE folder.
Windows: [System drive]:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
Mac OS: /User/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE folder
Rename the opm.db file to opm_old.db
Launch Creative Cloud
Thanks!

Hi my security questions aren't mine so now I can't purchase any apps how do I fix this
How do I fix my security code on my account because the ones that are there aren't mine and to reset them it shows someone else's email?
You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

If the app's description in the app store says it supports iOS 7 only then you cannot install it on your phone if your phone doesn't have iOS 7.

Connect the iOS device to your computer and try to make a backup
iOS: How to back up
Then restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

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! -

when I try to download an app I am asked to give additional security questions, but I am timed out every time. If I press the "not now" option , the app download resets. At the moment I can't download any apps because of this.
If you have a credit card on file on top of your gift card then it is asking you to confirm the security code for the card, which for a Visa or MasterCard is 3 digits located on the back, or AMEX has 4 digits on the front. This happens just to ensure that you are the account holder, and would happen from time to time whether it was a free or paid app, even if you have a credit through your gift card. This doesn't mean that your credit card will be charged.

Help, I have forgotten my Apple ID security questions and when i send it to my email address to reset the questions nothing shows up in inbox. Any other way to get past this?
You've checked the spam folder on your rescue email account as well as the inbox, and you've tried clicking the reset link a second time ? If you have, and you still haven't received the email, then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
