Re: [apple-iphone] iTunes users griping about Apple's security questions

And no one said you have to give correct answers to those questions. Below I will give some possible answers.

Q: First car A: rHubarB3
Q: First teacher A: dks34@6#
Q: Best friend A: along came spider, and sat down beside her
Q: First kiss A: None of your beezwax*&421

Of course you need to have a password vault app to keep the answers in. As long as your reply to the question with the answer you provided when you set them up, there is nothing that says they have to be truthful or correct or even relate in anyway to the question. They just have to correspond and match what you set them up as.
