Hello Daxxxxxx,


Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your security questions. I found an article with some useful information if you cannot remember the answers to your security questions:

What should I do if I don't remember the answers to my Apple ID security questions?

Try answering them at least once to see if you can get them right, even if you are not sure you remember the answers to your security questions.

If you are confident you can't remember them, try one of the following:

Note: If you have forgotten your password and answer your security questions incorrectly too many times in a row, you will be unable to try to answer your security questions for a period of time. During that time you will not be able to reset your password and will not have access to your account.
