I forgot my security question answers, but the email address they send help to is wrong. How can I change the recovery email address?

I forgot the answers to my security questions. When I go to the link for help remembering my security questions it sends the email to an email address that is not mine. And I don't know how to make it send to one of the two correct email addresses I have entered. Any suggestions?

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed, 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I forgot my security question answers and the email on file is no longer active. How can I get by this?

I tried to purchase songs with an iTunes card and it said this was my first time using this device and I needed to answer security questions. I forgot my answers and the reset email for them is no longer active. That's how long it's been since I've had to do this. What can I do?

I forgot my security question answers and the info apple has is not working for me and I don't want to call them, how do I reset my security questions?

I forgot my security question answers and the info apple gave to me didn't help, how do I reset them, I also don't want to call them?

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 (the steps half-way down that page should give you a reset link)
If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID passwordsign 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 passwordcontact 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 iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset - which is likely to be by phone as they need to confirm your id and that it's your account.

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

HT1918 Hello, I have a account but I can't buy anything because I forgot my security questions and my rescue email.

Hello, I have a account but I can't buy anything because I forgot my security questions and my rescue email.

If you can't remember your rescue email address (and seeing the reset link via steps 1 to 5 on this page doesn't help you remember it) then you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset.
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to view (or change/add) your rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 . Or you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570
