I forgot my security questions. Is there any thing else I can do other than call Apple Support?

 

Only if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account. If you do then go 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 should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset
Use the link/number for your country on this page to contact them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
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

  • I AM UNABLE TO LOAD THE NEWEST VERSION OF ITUNES BECAUSE WHEN I RUN THE NEW VERSION, I AM TOLD THE OLD VERSION OF BONJOUR COULDN'T BE REMOVED AN I WILL NEED TECH SUPPORT.  IS THERE ANY THING ELSE I CAN DO BEFORE I PAY TO HAVE TECH SUPPORT HELP?

    I am unable to load the newest version of itunes because when I run the program, i am told the old version of Bonjour could not be removed.  As a result the program fails to run completely.  What can I do to get the older version of Bonjour removed?  I tried unsuccesfully to remove the older version of itunes

    bobjbkln - Your link will not help. The supject is:

    For the original poster (OP), try posing in the iTunes form since now you have an iTunes problem, not an iPod problem.

  • My ipad air was stolen. Besides the find my ipad app (since it doesn't work if they don't hook up to wi-fi) any things else that can be done

    I had my ipad air stolen and tried using the "find my ipad app" only to realize it won't even track it unless it it hooked to wi-fi! I am sure thieves figure out how to use it even with my pass code on. Is there ANY thing else that can b done to track it? Serial number possibly? Please please anyone with info please help!

    No, there is no other way to track it. If you have a pass code set and are using iOS 7.x.x then the thieves simply have a bricked iPhone that is useless to them.

    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.

  • Are there any ways to get sequence number other than getting it for each re

    are there any ways to get sequence number other than getting it for each record

    CACHE is the number of values Oracle stores in memory. So the first call to NEXTVAL Oracle grabs x numbers; subsequent calls to NEXTVAL are served from memory until they're all gone and them another bunch is grabbed. The attached sql*plus output demonstrates this behaviour.
    Note that normally unused numbers in the cache are returned to the data dictionary but in exceptional circumstances (DB crash) they may be lost.
    Cheers, APC

  • HT5622 Are there any parental controls that can be placed on an apple ID that a parent would obtain for a child?

    Are there any parental controls that can be placed on an apple ID that a parent would obtain for a child?

    Not on the ID as such, but you can certainly use parental controls (Sustem Preferences) and/or create a limited access user account  (in Users & Groups). You would have to delete any applications or folders s/he is not allowed to have access to.

  • I can't reset my security questions, is there any way to fix this?

    I can't remember the answers to my original questions and want to reset them so I can buy music. However, every time I reset them, they just revert back to the old ones. I hit save and it tells me that everything's been set, but if I log out then log back they've reverted back to the old questions. I've tried to contact costumer service through the link given on iTunes but the page just unlessly loads after selecting iTunes, so I have no idea what to do.
    Any help would be appreicated, thank you.

    You can contact the Account Security team by following these steps:
    Please navigate to:
    https://expresslane.apple.com/
    Choose:
    iTunes > iTunes Store
    Then for Topic choose
    Account Management > Lost or Forgotten Apple ID password (any concerns regarding security questions also fall under this category)
    Choose Continue
    You will be given the options to Talk to Apple Support Now or Call Apple Support Later, please choose the option that works best for you. If the hold time is long, you might only have the option to talk with them later.
    If outside the US or Canada, and your country has Apple Phone Support, you must call and ask for The Account Security Team. They will then ask some security questions. If resetting your Security Questions, you must have a Credit Card on file so they can reset your Password First, then they can help reset your security questions.  You should be able to add a credit card via iTunes or appleid.apple.com> Billing. <-- Very important, or they can nto assist you!!!

  • I have a new email address and my old email keeps coming up on icloud when trying to update apps and i don't know the password or security questions for the old email. I can sign in with my apple id which is tied to another email but not itunes how to fix

    I have an apple id and it has my current email attached to it. however when i go to update apps it's asking for the password for an old email. I no longer have the old email and can't use it. when I go to icloud on my ipad it asks for the password for old email. it doesn't allow me to change the old email to current. when i go to reset it i can't remember the password or security questions for the old email so it doesn't let me go any further. How do I fix this? Do i need to call apple support?

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?
