I've been asked to answer my security questions, but I cannot remember them. So I used the link that says send to back up email to reset the password except that the email never gets sent so that I cannot change then. Help?
help?
If the email hasn't arrived after a few hours and isn't in a spam filter, you need to contact Apple. Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.

I am signed into my iTunes account. However, Im asked for answers to security questions I can't remember. I have clicked to reset through e-mail, yet I am not getting any email from iTunes. Any advice on fixing this?
If you are not getting the email, you can contact Apple Support to have your Security Questions reset:
ACCOUNT SECURITY CONTACT NUMBERS
Once you get them reset, check your Rescue Email address on Manage Your Apple ID to make sure it is still a functional address. It is not the same as your primary or alternate address.

I tried to change my rescue address, since it is outdated, and was not receiving any of the emails from Apple to this faulty address regarding resetting my security questions.
I cannot proceed in regaining full use of my account to make purchases if I do not reset my security questions, and I cannot reset them without receiving such an email, and I have no idea how to change my rescue email. The Apple ID support section of this site was unfortunately unhelpful and led me in circles.
Please help me to change my rescue email address!
If it helps, a few months ago I changed my primary account email, and my old primary address is my faulty rescue address now. It is no longer on my list of addresses but continues to show up as my rescue address.
An additional portion of my question: Is it possible, if I terminate one Apple ID, to move purchases made on that ID, to a new ID? I'm not sure if it's a violation of the terms and conditions if DO NOT keep the purchases on two accounts simultaneously.Alternatives for Help Resetting Security Questions and/or Rescue Mail

So i got an itunes gift voucher and this whole time i have been using my dads apple id but he doesnt have the card that the id uses anymore so he doesnt know the security questions and i havent bought anything from the appstore i have only ever got free apps and i dont know what to do because i have a £15 gift voucher and i want to use it but my dad also doesnt remember the password to the email account that the whole apple id uses to send security questions to and im so stuck because i want to use this but i cant!!!
He needs to ask Apple to reset his security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for his country, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying his identity.

Until i know my security questions I am unable to purchase music on my ipod
Didn't the link to contact the iTunes Store staff in the 'Additional Information' section of that article work for you? If you don't already have a valid rescue email address, only Apple itself can reset the questions.

My Apple ID asks for answers to security questions which I never input. I have searched how to reset my security questions and have found that the option below where your answers are to be input to reset questions does not exist on my iPhone 5c
You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

i just went to buy an album on itunes but because ive never purchased anything on this computer its asking for the answers to my security question, but i can remeber them? what do i do!?
Click here for information. If the option to have the answers emailed to you isn't available or doesn't work(the email may take a few hours to arrive), contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in the 'Additional Information' section of that article.
Without a rescue email address, you can't reset them yourself. Nobody on these boards can reset them for you.

HT201303 asking for answers to security questions that I didn't set up
To change my password it is asking for answers to security questions that I didn't set up.
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 give you a reset link for the questions on your account : 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
