Somebody set up security questions and a temporary support pin without me knowing, what do i do??

i cant access my account settings because i cannot answer my security questions that somebody unknowingly set up for me, as well as a temporary support pin....how can i get access to it?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
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.
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.
If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support.

That number is the temporary support pin that you provide to the Applecare rep when on the phone. Call Applecare, ask for account security, and they will ask for the Pin as part of the Verification process.

We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
If you aren't receiving the email to your rescue email account (and you've checked the spam folder on the account as well as the inbox, and tried clicking the reset link again) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.

Hello,
i forgot my security question and i guess i failed all mt atempts, what can i do ? please urgently..

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.

You'll have to connect the iPod to your computer and restore it to factory settings in iTunes. Then resync your music etc.

I did not set up security questions and now all of a sudden I am being asked to answer. What the heck?

Why, all of a sudden am I getting asked to answer security questions I never set up in the first place. I have never given credit card info, didn't need to because I have some iTunes Gifts to redeem. This is very frustrating!

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.
