What happens when you forget security questions

it won't let me purchase any until I get the question right Please help.

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account then the steps on this page will give you a reset link on your account : If you forgot the answers to your Apple ID security questions
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset : Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps on this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : 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

  • HT1657 What happens when you rent movies and they don't play? How come that question is not on the list?

    What happens when you rent movies and they don't play and you tried getting credit for it?  I rented two movies which they were very very old movies in black & white and they both don't play.  I never had this problem before even when downloading videos. Now how can I get credit for it?  I contact itunes a number of times and no one has done nothing as of yet.  Itunes also asked me for my order number which I sent them but still no credit.

        Great question MommaBof4! This is actually something that can be completed. VZW does have the option to turn this feature on or off based upon the users request. If you would like to update this feature on your device please give us a call by dialing *611 send from your VZW device, thanks!

  • What happens when you AirDrop from Mac to iPhone and click Cancel?

    I have a Late 2013 27" iMac running OS X Yosemite 10.10 and an iPhone 6 Plus running iOS 8.0.2.
    I can take a PDF on my iMac, drag it to my iPhone in the AirDrop section of Finder, and it transfer to my iPhone just fine.  Once it's finished transferring, a popup shows on my iPhone asking me what app I want to open the PDF in, which is great.  At the bottom of that popup is a "Cancel" option.  My question is, what happens when you tap "Cancel" instead of one of the apps?  Is the file still somewhere on the iPhone?  Or does it get deleted?

    Connecting to a new computer or iTunes will always erase the device first. Back up manually before by right clicking on the iPod in the device list and choosing "backup". A manual backup does not include the sync process. You can use this backup to restore from after your iPod got wiped during the first sync.
    Transfer your purchases the same way and make sure to have at least one contact and event listed on your Mac, to be able to merge data.
    See also iTunes: About iOS backups to get more info about the content of a backup, and How to back up your data and set up as a new device , if you want to know more about saving info from the iPod before setting it up in iTunes.

  • HT1539 What happens when you attempt to download a digital copy, but it doesn't upload in iTunes, and you're not allowed to use the code again?

    What happens when you attempt to download a digital copy, but it doesn't upload in iTunes, and you're not allowed to use the code again?

    Thanks for your reply, but you might have misunderstood it a bit. I'm NOT trying to buy a movie. ****, I'm not even in the actual Apple Store, when this happens I'm in the library not the Store part of iTunes.
    To clarify - I have purchased a physical copy of a movie which came with another physical copy which contains the digital copy. The digital copy is on the DVD, all I need is just to transfer this file to my iPod Touch, for example, I'm not trying to download it from the store or repurchase it and it's not any gift code that I've received, the digital copy is on the disc. This is the first time ever that I've purchased something on a disc and I'm not allowed to access it because the disc hasn't been purchased within my country.
    So again - I'm not attempting any purchase or download any purchased digital copy - it's on a DVD I own physically so... why is even the region of my Store relevant, the code I enter is (as I assume) just supposed to check if it's a legal genuine copy (which it is, as I've said - there are 6 discs in the pack: 3 movies on 3 Blu-rays and 3 DVD containing these digital copies of them). If I own it, I think that's proof enough that I have the right to use it. I just don't get it. I fully agree with you and understand your point if there was any purchase going on here, but it's not, it's just - I put a disc into my computer and I can't access it

  • What happens when you get Error 1905??

    ERROR 1905 MODULE C:/PROGRAM FILES/ITUNES/ITUNESMINIPLAYER.DLL
    FAILURE TO UNREGISTER

    Okay...so what do I do? After this it goes to "stopping services", but says it is unable to do that. Then when I open I-tunes it says that the part of the program where the computer connects to the ipod was not installed correctly. this is soooo frustrating. my brother's had an ipod shuffle for about 2 years so itunes was already installed. i was just trying to update it so my ipod video could be read.
    iPod with Video   Windows XP  

    Sorry no but here is some info anyway,
    We increased MaxPermSize from 192 to 512
    We also increased min and max JVM Heap size to 768 and 2048 respectively.
    Since then I think we have not experienced this problem more than once.
    We also have one server with the default parameters and it seems to work fine.
    I believe that size, and number of simultaneous request/responses have an impact  on this.
    We will now install the latest updates and after that decide whether to start logging jvm activities or not.
    Best regards

  • HT4527 What happens when you can't authorize anymore computers?

    I have authorized 4 computers at this point for my itunes data due to computers breaking and I wanted to know what happens when you cant authorize anymore computers. How would you get everything you bought?

    Then you need to de-authorize some computers or get another Apple ID. If you no longer have some computers that are still authorized:
    About De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
    Open iTunes on a computer
    From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
    Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
    Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
    Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    Also, see iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.

  • What happens when you transfer contents?

    I have my desktop backed up on a MyPassport Ultra. This computer runs Windows Vista Home Premium.  I am in the process of setting up a new laptop with Windows 8.1 which I understand about this || much. What happens when you transfer the contents? I understand that you plug the MyPassport into the laptop and it should direct me how to install what has been backed up. But what will it look like on the new computer? Will the folders be in the same directories? Where will they be stored? And can someone confirm what will NOT be backed up and transferred? I was told it would be programs that I installed, such as Paint Shop Pro, etc.
    Would be very grateful for any assistance

    Well! That was so much more painless than I thought, LOL. The transfer went well and I had no problems finding the files, but I apparently have not set the rules for what to copy, right. I understand from p.46 of the manual, Backing Up Files, that you select what to copy from the drop down menu under the PC/Dropbox icon. In my case that only offers Acer  (C, Data (D, and MyPassport. I chose Acer (C, thinking it copies everything on the computer except program files. But it did not copy a specific category (?) named in this image "Working".  Can you tell me what I've done wrong so I can correct it before I lose something? It would be my luck.

  • What happens when you  get a "PermGen space null" error?

    We have resently installd CF 10 64 bit om three new windows 2008 R2 servers.
    One of them keeps generating an error "PermGen Space null" when processing CF script files.
    There is nothing special about the scripts resulting in error
    we have tried to increse Maxpermsize from 192m to 768m but that had no effect.
    the other two servers seems to bee doing fine.
    Any ideas what to do?

  • What happens when you buy from a third party vender

    I am wondering what happens when you buy a macbook form a third party vender. In my case it is amazon.com. I am reading about people returning their macbook's to apple for a refund due to the high pitched whine everyone is talking about. My understanding is that we can still send them to apple to get fixed for the noise, but even if they can't fix it we still can't get a refund right? If I try to return it to Amazon as a defective product who decides if it is? Apple or Amazon?
    Kalel

    Amazon's return policy on computers doesn't exclude any brands, so I'd say that you could return it. Here's a link to it if you'd like to read it:

  • HT5312 what happens if you forget your security questions

    what happens if you dont know your 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.
