If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page should let you reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
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.
Contacting Apple about account security : 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 the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use -
I have tried to reset them but the prompt is not coming up.
Go back to the article you asked this question from and use the link to contact the iTunes Store staff in the 'Additional Information' section. If you don't already have a valid rescue email address, you can't reset the questions yourself, and nobody on these boards can reset them for you.
Setting up a rescue email address requires correctly answering two of the questions.

I tried to buy an app and itunes keeps asking for a security code. What is a security code? I only have a password! And ID
Are you using a credit card?

Security codes
The credit card security code is a unique three or four digit number printed on the front (American Express) or back (Visa/MasterCard) of your card. -
When I go to buy an app that isn't free it asks for my security question but I don't know what my security question is so I go to change it and it said it will send the info to this email that I don't even have. What do I do?
Alternatives for Help Resetting Security Questions and/or Rescue Mail
1. If you have a valid rescue email address, then use this procedure:
Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.
2. Fill out and submit this form. Select the topic, Account Security. You must
have a Rescue Email to use this option.
3. This is the only option if you do not already have a valid Rescue Email.
These are telephone numbers for contacting Apple Support in your country.
Apple ID- Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security. Select
the appropriate country and call. Ask to speak to the Account Security Team.
4. Account security issues almost always require you to speak directly to an
Apple representative to securely establish your identity as the account holder.
You can set it up so that Apple calls you, either immediately or at a time
convenient to you.
1. Go to www.apple.com/support.
2. Choose Contact Support and click Contact Us.
3. Choose Other Apple ID Topics and choose the appropriate topic for
your issue.
4. Follow the onscreen instructions.

the rescue email address beforehand.

I can't remember the answers to my Apple ID security questions.
1 Reply Latest reply : by alexbird I have I money in my apple I'd and when tried to purchase Apps asking me two security question but I am not remember the answer so I need your helpHello there, Subhi.sa.
Just wanted to second Niel's recommendation. Additionally this Knowledge Base article also provides some steps you can take yourself if you don't remember your security questions:
Apple ID: All about Apple ID security questions
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5665
What should I do if I don't remember the answers to my Apple ID security questions?
Try answering them at least once to see if you can get them right, even if you are not sure you remember the answers to your security questions.
If you are confident you can't remember them, try one of the following:
If you have three security questions and a rescue email addresssign 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 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.
Note: If you have forgotten your password and answer your security questions incorrectly too many times in a row, you will be unable to try to answer your security questions for a period of time. During that time you will not be able to reset your password and will not have access to your account.
Thanks for reaching out to us on the Apple Support Communities.

I have a lot of money on my Apple ID but when I try to buy something it ask for my security questions that I do not remember the answers to. I also don't have access to the email I used to set up my Apple ID but I do know the password how do I fix this ?
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 am an active member and I am trying to install Abobe Acrobat XI Pro and it is asking for my serial number. Where can I find that information?
Hey jamesl12995614,
Could you please let me know if you are using subscription or bought Acrobat as a one-time purchase.
If its a subscription, then all you need is to sign in at adobe.com using your Adobe credentials and download the software.
Otherwise, you might refer the KB doc link mentioned below to find your serial number:
Find your serial number quickly
Hope it helps.

I have itunes account and I'm trying to buy for itune store and asks me security questions which I can not remember and do not put a rescue optional email I should do?
Hello Jbamrah,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5312
You can edit or delete your rescue email address at My Apple ID. To edit your rescue email address:
Navigate to My Apple ID using your web browser.
Click "Manage your account"
When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
Click Password & Security
You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
Note: The option to send an email to reset your security questions and answers will not be available if a rescue email address is not provided. You will need to contact iTunes Store support in order to do so.
Best of luck,

My iphone keeps saying in order to buy a song from itunes, I need to previde the answer to security questions but I don't remember the answers and i've tried to change it but in order to do that, I need the answers.
You canot easily change your country settings. The iTunes Store in a country is intended only for use by that country's residents, and only while they are in the country. To use the iTunes Store in a country you need a credit card (or other card type if acceptable in a country) issued in that country, billed to an address in that country, and also be physically present in that country when using the store. You are also restricted to waiting 90 days between country changes.
E.g., "The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance." - http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html#SERVICE -

How i said on the question. I tried to upgrade the ios on the phone and I was asked for my icloud user and password. I don’t remember these exactly and I tried several times with different options but unsuccessfully. I also forget my email used to configurate the phone. I have the phone box and the bill. I sent you an email with my problem and attachments with the box informations, the bill and the reset request. What to do? You said to me:
Your request comes from an unrecognized email domain. Apple accepts email requests only from email domains for Apple-authorized carriers.
Please re-submit your request using your official carrier domain.
but this email is authorized, what to do??

There was an option to Cancel the pop up box which I have now done and it has carried on with the set up - so not sure what it was all about.
I am going to the Genius Bar tomorrow so will ask the question!
