Editing screenshots in iTunes Connect after iOS app was approved

Solution 1:

The current standing on this has changed to:

Beginning January 9 [2013], app screenshots will be locked in iTunes Connect once your app has been approved. New screenshots may be uploaded when you submit a binary for an update to an existing app or a new app.

Solution 2:

Apple support now got back with the (somehow not too satisfactory) answer:

If your app is currently for sale on the App Store, you will need to submit an update in order to change your app screenshots.
