Hi Tim I had the same with clients, but all the questions, when you click on the choices there was one(s) that let you create your own questions and answers, so you didn't have to use their rubbish ones. You can still change it to something you want. If you log in to AppleID <https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/> it will then let you change the question you've chosen to create your own Question and Answer set. Makes it a bit easier. :)
Hope that helps Kind regards Daniel --- Daniel Kerr MacWizardry Phone: 0414 795 960 Email: <daniel AT macwizardry.com.au> Web: <http://www.macwizardry.com.au> **For everything Macintosh** On 21/04/2012, at 7:08 PM, Tim Law wrote: > Evening, > > I've been into iTunes to download some new apps, and come across a new screen > that I cannot bypass, insisting I complete three security questions that have > preset questions that I will have to remember. > > These are not self selectable questions but some no doubt selected by a > person much younger than me who thinks the questions are relevant and able to > be remembered. > > Questions such as favourite teacher, least favourite teacher, favourite car, > least favourite car, best friend in school, and even where I had my first > kiss.
