Is there a way to make a rescue email address without calling apple support?

I see lots of questions about rescue emails etc. I am having problems with security questions as well I don't remember ever making those security questions either. So I am wondering of there is a way of making a rescue email address without calling the apple support team in which I do not wish to go through a whole bunch of people taking hrs to actually get it done , my dad has had experience with this before and isn't happy with calling them either because he has to recall so many times and go through the process over and over again so. Is there a way with out calling them?

This only leads me to calling apple support to change things ,in which I wish to not do so, I have money on my account in which I can't use because of these security questions in which I did not put up and when I made this account on iCloud it did not give me the chance to make a rescue email. Thus leading me to where I am now.

  • HT201303 Is there a way to setup a rescue email after you have created an Apple account?

    Is there a way to setup a rescue email after you have created your Apple account?  I did not setup the security questions or the optional rescue email.  Now I am stuck. I presume I cannot receive the reset email to set security question answers because I do not have a rescue email.

    Yep... pretty much SoL until Apple's Snafu is over...

    You won't be able to change your rescue email address until you can answer your questions, you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.

    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to correct your rescue email address for potential future use

  • I forgot the answers to my security questions... and I don't know how to make a rescue email address. pls help!

    how do I make a rescue address? and also how do I reset my security questions?

    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.
    It isn’t possible to create a rescue email address without supplying two of the answers. They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

    hello , i want to add a rescue emile to my apple id and i can't , i cant either call them because i'm in SA and they don't have a number to call here so please help me .

    You can't add a rescue email address without being able to answer 2 of your security questions, you will need to contact Apple to get them reset.
    As South Africa isn't on this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 , then you can try contacting them via this link, saying that you don't have a rescue email address and that you are in South Africa (which isn't on the HT5699 page) and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

    You can get your Security Questions reset by contacting iTunes Support at either of the two links below. Select the best options for your issue, or provide specific information. Let them know you are contacting them concerning Forgotten Security Questions. They will get back to you via your primary email address, usually within 24 hours. Once your Security Questions have been reset, you will be able to go in and reset your Rescue email address on your account:

    or by email:

  • Is there a way to change my rescue email after I've set the security questions and forgotten the answers?

    I am in high school and I made my Apple ID account at least 3 years ago in middle school and I used my school email as the recovery email. I have forgotten the correct response to my security questions and I no longer have access to my old school email and I was wondering if there was a way to change that email now. I have changed the "Alternate Apple ID" email to one that I do have access to, but it didn't change the recovery email. I was wondering if there is a way to change that one so I can access iTunes on other devices.

    The rescue email address and alternate email addresses are different settings/addresses on an account, you won't be able to change your rescue email address until you can answer 2 of your questions - you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

    Is there a way to transfer my Comcast email adress book to my iPhone 4s?

    If Comcast does not provide an option to sync your Comcast online contacts with an address book app on your computer, they should provide an option for exporting the contacts to be imported by an address book app on your computer that supports syncing contacts with the iPhone.

  • How do I figure out the rescue email address for my Apple ID?

    I can't remember my answers and I can't remember what my rescue email is how can I figure that out?

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    -If you established a rescue email address, there will be a link on the "Passwords & Security" page of id.apple.com.  Clicking the link will send the reset to your rescue email address (NOTE:  This is not the same address as your Apple ID email)
    -If there is no link on the page, then you didn't establish a rescue email address.  Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466 (If you are in the US), and ask for account security.  You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.
    -If you are not in the US, click http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 - Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security

    I am trying to reset the Security Questions as I have forgotten them, when I have logged into My Apple Id, and click on the button to reset the Security Questions, it states it is sending an email to the Primary Email address. I do not have the option to input a Rescue Email address, the only option I have is to input an Alternate Email address, which I have done so.
    Also when I have tried to book an appointment throuth Online Support, I have not successful, I have rung a telephone number provided by the Mac Store in Perth, Australia and the reply provided is that we are closed. I was given to understand that Apple provided 24/7 Support to their users.
