HT5312 What if you don't receive the email to reset security questions
We haven't received any of our emails to reset security questions what can we do
These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here.
If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551 -
how to add a rescue email adress to recieve my reset security question ..i dont have one
Welcome to the Apple Community.
1. Start here (change country if necessary) and navigate to 'Password and Security', reset your security questions using the link provided, you will receive an email to your rescue address, use the link in the email and reset your security questions.
2. If that doesn't help, you don't receive a reset email or you don't have a rescue address, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
3. If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support. -

I am trying to purchase songs. I am ask 2 security questions. I can't remember answers. I hit the send reset, security questions. I am not getting any response back. I went in and added another email address and verified it hoping that this would work and i would get it sent to that address. Still nothing.
I have a $15 itunes card tied to this. Any help is appreciated.Hi CDB,
A second email address is not going to help you. You would have had to set up a Rescue email address prior to forgetting the security questions. At this point, you will need to contact iTunes Support to get them reset:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699?viewlocale=en_US
or by email:
https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
You may want to look into two-step verification to replace the use of Security Questions, once you get this resolved:
