This is not possible...
Anything Downloaded with a Particular Apple ID is tied to that Apple ID and Cannot be Merged or Transferred to a Different Apple ID.

My iTunes Account only displays 1, not 3 security questions. WHY?
This has been a problem from he#l!!!
My iTunes account only displays *1*, not 3 security questions.
I cannot d/l any digital downloads from the external blu-ray combo disks w/downloads, as iTunes is DEMANDING 3 security questions.
I've been informed that I need to create a "rescue e-mail" --- I've reset my password account over 20 times (at appleid.apple.com) and the system doesn't show a selection for rescue e-mail (I can add multiple alternative e-mail addresses).
Has anyone else found a solution to this? Does Apple need to effect a master reset to my account????It was already unchecked and im not quite sure what you mean by "click-to-drag"
Also, I can back up my iphone and it will sync genius data. Just not the recent music I downloaded. -
Whenever I want to download a free app, it asks me for 3 security questions. I answer them. Then it says "session has timed out". Then the whole process starts over. How can I get around this?
Hey everyone in Apple world!
I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP! Yessssss!!!
I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process. Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal. No flashing yellow screen anymore!!
(Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
Let me know if this works for you!

Trying to download an app but, I get prompt to answer security questions. I answer the questions but, then the session times out.
I have this problem too, I don't know what to do.
Could it be a connection issue to do with the ios 6 update? -
ITunes won't let me purchase apps because it contiues to ask me security questions that I never setup. For example, I set up the following:
Name of my best friend in High School?
It keeps asking me about my first pets name and my favorite book as a child.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.

Some Solutions for Resetting Forgotten Security Questions: Apple Support Communities -
Alright so I had an iTunes account that as you'd expect was linked to my email. Long story short my email got hacked and hotmail shut it down because my email address which I could no longer get into was sending spam to all my contacts. Anyway I used to keep a lot of the same passwords for different things and I realised that I had the same password for my email as I did for my hotmail so I decided to change both the password and the email of my iTunes account but then I encountered some difficulties. I had to either answer the security questions or verify my email. I'd long since forgotten what I'd put for the answers of the security questions so now I was stuck. So I called apple and the guy helped me 'sort it out'.
I got my new account with its new email and new password and new email. But here's the thing now I can't get any of my old purchases. I've basically lost everything! So I need to get back into the old account and I've managed to get my broken old email restored so it should work now. But it doesn't the verification email doesn't come through! I need to get back on my old account. Someone please help!You can't get any of your purchases because you created a new Apple ID, you didn't change the email on your old one. App and other content is forever tied to the Apple ID used to purchase it. There is no way to transfer them and no way to merge Apple IDs.
You need to call Apple back, explain the situation and tell them you need to change the email on your old Apple ID - NOT create a new one. -
