If you don’t know your security questions, phone Apple (using the number listed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 ) and ask for the Account Security Team.

Thanks Klaus!


I followed your links and successfully created a rescue email. Then I thought I would have a look at my security questions and discovered I had forgotten the answers. Your other advice allowed me to send an online request for Apple to phone me. They did within 30 seconds, and were very helpful. My security questions are now reset.


Regards, and thanks for your help.
