Not receiving security question reset instruction email. What am I missing??

I have tried multiple times to request an email that provides instructions on how to reset security questions. Each time I try, I get confirmation that the email was sent but it never arrives. I have confirmed that I am using the proper email address. Any solution to the problem would be appreciated!

Either it got caught in a spam filter, or got delayed(allow a few hours), or there's a problem on Apple's servers.

If you can't use these procedures because you don't have a rescue email address you will have to contact Apple. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
You can also call your country number from http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 and ask to speak with Account Security.
You can also go to the ExpressLane at https://expresslane.apple.com and then iTunes > iTunes Store > Password and Security Questions and fill out the form.

HT5312 I didn't receive security questions reset from Apple to my rescue email. Apple can't reach me at my mobile phone...... Help needed please! Thank you in advance!

I have entered a country code with my mobile number. Apple said they have tried to reach me but fail twice. My mobile phone doesn't ring at that time scheduled by Apple.
How can I change my rescue email address?

It's not supposed to; an alternate email isn't the same as a rescue email. Click here, phone Apple, and ask for the Account Security team.

what can i do right now??

If the email hasn't arrived after a few hours and isn't in a spam filter, 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.

Ok i have been trying to download albums, songs, apps, etc. and my itunes keeps asking me for the security question and for the life of me i cant remember the answers. I dont know what the email is that receives the question reset.

If you have music that was purchased on different iTunes accounts than the one you use, then you must provide the password, otherwise the tunes are not considered yours. You can turn off iCloud and just use the usual USB sync method. But I wonder whether you'll have the same problem?

I did not receive email of security question reset

Hi.
I recently bought an iPad Air 2 64gb 4g. I wanted to purchase new app when it asked to authorize my apple ID for the first time on this device, and by answering my security questions. I've forgotten the answers so I used the link in my account management page to be sent the reset info to my alternative email. When I clicked the link it said the email was sent successfully and I should follow the steps it would say.
The problem is no email comes to me even after two days and several attempts with sign out/in in between.
My alternative email has nothing in spam folder.
My alternative email receives all emails I tested.
I changed my alternative email in my account successfully but that link of reset email under security question boxes still shows my previous alternative email as for the address to be used.
I was able to change every other detail of my account.
My Questions are:
1. Why apple is not sending me the email even after noticing it as successful?
2. Why although I changed the alternative email, there is still my previous one shown as the destination for reset email? So how can I change the destination shown in the link of security questions reset inquiry?
Thanks in advance

The reset email should have been sent to your rescue email address, alternate email addresses are different and not used for account security - is it your rescue email account that you've checked, or just your alternate email address ?
You won't be able to view and/or change your rescue email address until you can answer your questions, if the email isn't there then you will have to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : Contact Apple for help with Apple ID account security
If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
When they've been reset you can then view and/or change your rescue email address for potential future use (you won't be able to set it to be the same as any other email address on the account) : Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses
Or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : Frequently asked questions about two-step verification for Apple ID

HT5312 When I request a security question reset I do not receive an email to reset them, AT ALL. Why?

When I request a security question reset, I do not receive an email to do so. Why?
I have requested it many time at many different times and I have not received a single email to reset the security questions.

We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, we won't know why. You've checked the spam folder on your rescue email account as well as the inbox ? If it's not there either then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.

That's not a good sign if it said it was going to send it to an email address you've never heard of. Contact iTunes Support and let them know this: http://apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
