TS1702 I have forgotten the answers to my security questions. How do I reset?

I cannot purchase any apps on my iPod touch because i cannot answer my security questions correctly. Please help!

If you already have a rescue 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 set up then go to Express Lane  and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Questions' or 'iTunes Store account security' (it appears to vary by country) and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
You should get an email reply within about 24 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox).
Or you could see if the second half of Kappy's reply in this thread helps : https://discussions.apple.com/message/20357006#20357006

    HELP... I have forgotten my answers to my security questions, how do I retrieve them?

    Hi,
    Since I originally posted that info APple have changed the page.
    There are less Menu items but in Password and Security I get shown the Security Questions.
    However rather then showing me the possible response it now want me to fill them in.
    It also shows  my recovery email (Shown in a partial format but enough detail so I know which Account it is) if I have forgotten the answers to the Questions.
    IF I fill in the Secruity Questions answers then the pages to what I had previously described.
    I can edit the recovery email address, change the Questions and Answers and even change my date of birth.

  • HT1920 What if I have forgotten the answers to my security questions

    What if I have forgotten the answers to my security questions?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

    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.
