Q: I have forgotten by security answers, how can I get help without calling ITunes?

I have been trying to log in to my apple Id in order to make a purchase, but i created my security answers over six years ago and the answers I produced no longer apply. Due to this, I am unable to make a purchase although I have Itunes credit in my account. Is there any way of talking to Apple about the problem without calling?

 

Thanks

    You can contact the Apple ID Security site from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 or call the AppleCare support number from http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 and ask to speak with the Account Security Team, but it sounds like the first approach is what you want to do.

    Alternatives for Help Resetting Security Questions and/or Rescue Mail

     

         1. If you have a valid rescue email address, then use this procedure:

             Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.

     

         2. Fill out and submit this form. Select the topic, Account Security. You must

             have a Rescue Email to use this option.

     

         3. This is the only option if you do not already have a valid Rescue Email.

             These are telephone numbers for contacting Apple Support in your country.

             Apple ID- Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security. Select

             the appropriate country and call. Ask to speak to the Account Security Team.

     

         4. Account security issues almost always require you to speak directly to an

             Apple representative to securely establish your identity as the account holder.

             You can set it up so that Apple calls you, either immediately or at a time

             convenient to you.

     

                1. Go to www.apple.com/support.

                2. Choose Contact Support and click Contact Us.

                3. Choose Other Apple ID Topics and choose the appropriate topic for

                    your issue.

                4. Follow the onscreen instructions.

     

             Note: If you have already forgotten your security questions, then you cannot

             set up a rescue email address in order to reset them. You must set up

             the rescue email address beforehand.
