Game Center on the fritz!!!

Hello, I have a question about my game center account.  My ipod touch is on ios 6.1.6.  I am trying to change my nickname on my game center account.  Whenever i try to view my account to edit my nickname, it will begin to load, but a few seconds later it will say that it is saving.  Before it saves it doesn't even show the options to edit.  The only way i can get it to appear is if I rapidly tap the screen, but it wont let me edit anything and then will save and return to the home screen.  I hope someone out there has an answer for me because i dont want to make another Apple ID over this.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Sign out of your GameCent ID and then sign back in
- Reset all settings                            
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:                                               
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

    I have the same problem on my Mac OS X V 10.9.5. and its just 1 month old.
    have tried almost everything. But it looks like it's on Apple's side because there are other people with other devices (Iphone & Ipad) having the same problem.

  • TS1702 I have problem with accessing to my Game Center. I was not able to log in to y game center. The loading took anyone ever had this problem? How do I solve this issue?

    My Game Centre was disabled. I was advise to login to my Game Center to enable my achievements. But everythime I login in to my Game Center, it take ages for the loading to process and just hang there. Can some one help me to solve this issue?

    If the problem persists, you'll probably have to make another apple id, it wont take off any games or music or apps or anything you've bought it will all stay there, i have two apple id's and i don't have a problem with anything.

  • Moving multiple kids to different game center after the fact.

    I currently have multiple I pads in my house (kids) using the same game center account for last few years ipad 2 and ipad 3 .  So far no scores purchases etc have filtered into the wrong i pad but they both do make purchases in same games. Now they both have a game and it only allows one to use game center . I would like to separate there games to a game center id for each kid but im worried about loosing game data and or purchases etc.. They are both on same Apple ID so mostly I'm worried about in game purchases. Any recommended process ? will a full backup even backup this data as well?

    Sorry, the code I MEANT to put in was as follows (how do you edit posts here?!)
    public class AdminTab extends JPanel implements
    ActionListener
         static JPanel selectPane = new JPanel();
         static JPanel controlPane = new JPanel();
         static TableModel userBatchNums;
         static JTable table;
         static TableModel userBatchNums = new TableModel3();
         static JTable table = new JTable(userBatchNums);
         static JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane();
         public AdminTab()
              super(false);
              setLayout(new BorderLayout());
          // other code here to add items to the selectPane and controlPane
              add(selectPane, BorderLayout.PAGE_START);
              add(scrollPane, BorderLayout.CENTER);
              add(controlPane, BorderLayout.PAGE_END);
              scrollPane.add(table);
              scrollPane.revalidate();
    and the change that works but is useless for me is to remove the last two lines, and change the FIFTH line of code to read:
         static JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(table);

  • I can't sign into game center and the app store?!

    Hi
    I have a mac book pro which is about 1year and 2months old and I recently purchased and dowloaded the new mac osx mountain lion using the app store. I followed every step and agreed to all the terms and conditions. However now i cannot access the app store and I cannot sign into game center.
    Firstly, when i open the app store it says 'cannot connect to the app store' but somehow it can tell me that there is an update available. I have never had the problem before.
    Secondly, with game center I can open it but when I type in my apple ID and click sign in nothing happens.
    Help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi, bamboo64. 
    Try closing all open applications in multitasking and power cycling the device.  Once this is done test the results.  If the issue persists, I have included a couple troubleshooting articles that I would recommend going through. 
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
    Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
    Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
    If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.

  • HT4314 I have an IPhone an IPad1 and and IPod.  The game center on the IPod will not show any of the games.  Can anyone help with this?

    I have an IPod touch 4.2 and the game center is not showing any of the games.   My Ipad1 and IPhone are running from the same account and both work great. Any suggestions how I might solve this?  Thank u

    I would just explain that this just started happening, that nothing has changed on the phone, that it is an original iPhone and I wondered if they are implementing a change in coverage with their Edge network in my area.
    If you restore your phone, you will be given an option to back up your phone at the beginning of the process (see step 6 here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414).  You will be given the option to restore to that backup at the end of the restore process.  Your messages are stored in the backup so restoring to the backup will return the messages to your phone.  Be sure to import your photos and videos to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083) and back up your contacts somewhere before restoring your phone as these sometimesget lost in the restore process.

  • How to delete IOS 4.2.1 Game Center on the iPad?

    Color me antisocial, but I'd like to remove Game Center from my iPad or at least remove the icon/disable the service. Reading the manual for 4.2.1, I can turn off notifications and enable assorted restrictions, but even via iTunes cannot find a way to kill this thing or at a minimum remove from the desktop. Any hope/help, or is this something for a proverbial future IOS update? Hard to imagine that removal wouldn't be desired in an enterprise use profile.

    Here is how to place Game Center into a folder...
    Place your finger onto the Game Center app an wait for it to wiggle.
    Drag the Game Center onto another app.
    A folder will be made with both apps inside it.
    You can rename the folder to something like 'Unused Apps'.
    Hit the home button.
    If the app that you dragged Game Center onto is one that you use.
    Tap the folder to open the folder.
    Place your finger onto the app you want to remover and wait for it to wiggle. Drag it from the folder and the tap the Home button.
    A folder can have up to 12 apps inside it,

  • HT1918 Why can't I put no billing information with an existing Game Center as the Apple ID?

    I want to make an Apple ID with existing Game Center, but I don't have a credit card so it won't let me. On an article, it says that I need to make a new one in order to put no billing information, is it possible to put none for my existing Game Center?

  • The Game Center is "unable to load data due to network connectivity issues or errors".

    The Game Center is "unable to load data due to network connectivity issues or errors".
    My internet is fine: all other apps that do not rely on the Game Center work, as does my browser and other online functions; additionally, a friend's iPhone connects to his Game Center perfectly while he is sitting next to me.
    Closing the Game Center app and then reopening it is ineffective. Opening the options for the Game Center in the settings, logging out of my Apple ID, then logging back in, and then reopening the Game Center is ineffective. Opening the options for the Game Center in the settings, logging out of my Apple ID, then reopening the Game Center app and logging back in from there is ineffective.
    This issue has gone on for more than a month, and so the phone has gone through all variations of "turn it off then back on again, refresh the system, etc etc" that are the basic first suggestions for trouble shooting.
    One game app, which required a Game Center profile to launch, stopped working entirely, and would return a message saying something like "connect to the Game Center". I eventually deleted it to free up space. Other games which can be linked to the Game Center to connect with friends simply fail to link, returning "Game Center unavailable". This is the aspect that is currently bothering me the most: I cannot play games with friends unless the app can also link to Facebook and connect to friends from there.
    When I open the Game Center, I see the following screen. The bubbles float gently, and it seems as if I had the ability to update my "status". However doing so results in a message that has vanished once the app is reopened.
    Upon tapping Games, either the bubble from the main screen or the option on the ribbon at the bottom, the following screen appears. Clicking on Challenges shows a message that achievements must be viewed to issue a challenge. Clicking achievements results in a message that games must be connected (and from my friend's phone I know I have several apps that should appear).
    Upon tapping friends, it does show me a list of suggested friends pulled from Facebook, but attempting to send a friend request results in the following screen. After accepting the error box, the "send" button for the request is grayed out and unavailable regardless of adding or deleting friends and/or an accompanying message.
    In short, the Game Center is completely unresponsive for no discernible reason, and this problem began with no warning and is now long term. Though my iPhone is older (a 4s), my friend's is even older (a regular 4) and works fine.

    I am having the very same problem on my iPad running ios 7. All is fine on my iPhone it opens no problem - this is running on ios 8. I wish they would fix it.

  • HT4314 My Game Center App support button sends me to the website of the developer, and they say to ask Apple for help. It's a cycle I can't break. I just want to fix my game!

    I downloaded the Sims Freeplay app some time ago and it's been smooth sailing.
    I'm a bit of an achievement hunter when I play my games, so I bought a rather expensive home to earn one particular achievement.
    My "Pro Skater Deam Pad" was built, but the achievement was never awarded. Odd. So I restarted my iPad and thus the game. Still nothing.
    I've had the house for a few days now and I still haven't been awarded an achievement, so I went to the App Store and clicked App Support.
    It sent me to the EA games homepage, and after scouring the help center with no luck, I was finally pushed into making an account so I could ask my question.
    Lo and behold, the EA games cannot access the Game Center or the App Store or anything else like that, and sent me back to Apple.
    Repeat the cycle here.
    So here's my question and I'd love some answers ::
    "What do I need to do to fix the glitch? The app is up to date and is otherwise running perfectly fine."

    I doubt this warranty is still being honoured, since there was a 2 year time limit.
    But just to be sure you could contact Apple directly:

    Good luck.

  • I was trying to uninstall a game on my iPad but I accidentally removed the game from the Game Center. How do I get it from icloud

    Hello,
    I was trying to uninstall my game on my iPad because it kept on crashing. I started the process, you know how they ask if you want to delete and I said yes and then they ask you if you want to keep it or remove it from  the Game Center ( at the time, really wasn't understanding what it was asking) and I chose to remove it. But now, I can't open up the game now. I thick it went to iCloud, so how do you get it open so I can play it??????
    Very much appreciated!

    Try deleting the problematic app and then re-downloading the app from the app store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the app store using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the app store using the purchased option which is revealed by tapping the updates option at the bottom of the screen of the App store app on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.
