WHY ARE SECURITY QUESTIONS ,THAT I HAVE NEVER BEEN ASKED BEFORE,NEEDED TO DOWNLOAD CONTENT FROM ITUNES ?

IV'E TRIED THIS EVENING TO DOWNLOAD A SONG FROM ITUNES AND SECURITY QUESTIONS THAT I HAVE NEVER BEEN ASKED BEFORE ARE NEEDED TO COMPLETE THE DOWNLOAD. WHY?

The security questions have been added to provide additional security for iTunes Store accounts. You will need to set up the questions and answers now, and provide those answers from time to time.
Regards.
Forum Tip: It is generally considered inappropriate to type all in uppercase letters in Internet discussions, as text that is typed all in uppercase is by convention considered to be shouting.  Uppercase is also more difficult to read, so please use all uppercase sparingly and only when you really mean to shout, which we hope you won’t need to do here .

  • HT5312 I don`t remember setting up security questions and if i did i don`t remember the answers (all of a sudden I am now asked to answer security questions when I have never been asked in the past???) I have no rescue email either

    I have been buying itunes for about a year and a half with no trouble and within the past month everytime I tried to buy music it keeps asking me for answers to security questions that I do not know the answers to as I don't even remember doing this when i started with itunes - AND I won't have an alternate recovery email as I only have one email.
    I have attempted three times now to go through apple support to no avail as i keep giving them my phone number - no one calls (cause I am home each time the date I check off) and then I get an email saying we tried to contact you but there was no answer! very strange!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    You can only get reset info sent to a rescue email addres, which is not the same thing as an alternate email address - they are different settings/addresses on an account. If you don't have a rescue email address (and you can't add one without being able to answer 2 of your questions) then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

    Hello cpikehfx, 
    Welcome to the forums. 
    You can try one of the two options below to work around your issue. 
    Drag and drop the files from the desired music folder to the BlackBerry Music folder using the computer.
    Open the desired music folder on the computer
    Go into Computer or My Computer and open the BlackBerry network drive
    Open the Music folder
    Drag the desired music files from the computer music folder to the BlackBerry Music folder
    Try a different Windows profile.
    Go into the Control Panel and create a new user account
    Put some music files in a folder that is accessible by all profiles or transfer them to the BlackBerry device
    Log out of the current profile and log into the new profile
    Transfer music into iTunes or Windows Media Player
    Launch BlackBerry Link and go through the setup configuring the music source of your choice
    Click on the Computer name in the bottom left corner of Link
    Select Music on the left side
    Drag and drop the desired music files from the list to the BlackBerry name in the bottom left corner of Link
    If neither of these options work for you then you will want to contact your mobile service provider and ask that this issues be escalate to BlackBerry support for investigation. 
    Hope this helps. Have a good day.

  • I am being asked security questions that i have never had to do before to download apps

    I am being asked security questions when trying to download apps. I have never set up these questions so cannot answer the and even if I try no answer is accepted.
    Is there a solution so I can continue to download apps?

    Click here and search the article for '2 out of 3' without the quotes; in the case of forgotten answers, this generally involves either a message being sent to your rescue email address or contacting the iTunes Store staff directly.

  • I have a New IPone 5 and I cannot buy anything thru Itunes since I have not purchased from this device before. Itunes is trying to verify my ID by asking some security questions that I have never put the answers in for. Tried Support.

    Apple Support says they have to have the answers to the security questions before they can rest my questions...????/

    If you log into your account via http://appleid.apple.com, and select the Password and Security section on the left-hand side of that page are you able to set them ?
    If not, then from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5665 :
    If you have three security questions and a rescue email address, sign in to My Apple ID and select the “Password and Security” tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers.
    If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID password, sign in to My Apple ID and select the “Password and Security” tab to reset your security question.
    If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID password, contact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
    If you can’t reset them via the above instructions (you won't be able to add a rescue email address until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.

  • Firefox won't open any sites that I've never been to before

    Firefox will not open any new sites that I have never been to before nor will it let me search for any questions that are new on the little search feature on the top right of the screen. All sites that have been previously visited are fine - for new ones I just get the little circle that goes round and round (sorry, I'm not really computer literate) until it finally tells me that it has timed out. I can get to these new sites just fine through explorer. I may remember incorrectly but not long ago there was an update for something (may have been java or google) and afterwards a box popped up and I think I checked something that I thought I was supposed to check but now think I wasn't - but have had this problem ever since.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

  • HT202020 Why are certain videos that I have taken with my iPhone 4 not supported by Aperture.

    Why are certain videos that I have taken with my iPhone not supported by Aperture?  That's weird.  I expect that since both iPhone and Aperture are Apple products, file support should be seamless between the two. 
    Also, iPhone 4 does not appear as Camera Model in the metadata of the unsupported video file in Aperture .  But other videos I have taken with the same iPhone 4 appear in Aperture and the Camera Model appears correctly.  Why is that?

    Have you done some cleaning and cleared caches on your Mac? Maybe the  com.apple.xpchelper.cache file is missing. Check the folder /System/Library/Caches/
    Re: Import video to Aperture library on Mountain Lion https://discussions.apple.com/message/19304702#19304702
    If this file should be missing, you need to restore it from a backup or reinstall it by reinstalling your system.

  • TS3297 When I download an app from the iTunes Store there are security questions that i don't know. Is there anyway to reset them?

    When I try to download a app from my new iPad and my iPhone 5 there are security questions that I may of forgot. But it works perfectly on my iPod . Is there any way to change the security passwords back to something I know ?

    It seems to me this is craxy - I can play personal videos and put my pics up on the TV via wireless - but not things I bought through itunes.  I guess I ahve to ask myself w hy I would want to keep buying things through itunes if I want to watch them on my TV>  If I buy thorugh Amazon prime or netflix, I can watch in either place.  SUrely Apple isn't that shortsighted?

  • I just used a firewire connection to transfer files from an older MAC to a newer MAC. My newer MAC has lost all that was on it, and all the applications are opening like they have never been used before and asking for Rosetta. Help!!!

    I just used a firewire connection to transfer files from a PowerBook G4 to a MacBook Pro. The MacBook Pro has lost all that was on it, and all the applications are opening like they have never been used before and asking for Rosetta. How do I find all my files on the MacBook Pro, or undo what I have done???

    IGNORE the last post: he thought you are using Lion or Mountain Lion.
    Since you are using Snow Leopard, you need to install Rosetta.  It can be found on your Snow Leopard Install DVD in the Options section.
    Once installed all should be well again.
    Also, if your computer is connected to the internet when the Dialog Box about PowerPC applications comes up, it MIGHT allow you to download Rosetta from the internet.  There has been some discussion that Apple has discontined internet download of Rosetta into Snow Leopard.
    Someone else will have to address your lost files problem.
