How to Change to a different Game Center account

It will only effect GameCenter. It will not effect other apps and things on the iPod.
You can change the account you are signed into by:
iOS: Tap Settings > Game Center.
OS X: Click the Me tab in the Game Center app and click on your Account.
Note: Please note each Apple ID has its own associated scores, achievements, and friends.

How to transfer app data between two different game center accounts?

Hello, I really need some help.
I have looked all over the web for ways to transfer apps between two different game center accounts and different devices. Several weeks ago I started playing Campus Life on my relative's Ipad 2, therefore spending many long hours to get to this point in the game.
The problem is I just got an Iphone 5 and I really would like to transfer the data onto it, so that I would not need to start all over again.
My grandma has an account (Game Center) onto which the data has been saved and I would like to have it stored onto mine. On some forum someone said to sign into the account which has the data on both devices and to then open up the game on the new device. It worked. Then I signed out and logged in with my own account- the game started from scratch. I panicked. I went back on the other account, and the data reappeared. I have been going back and forth, the game changing as many times. I thought it would ask to back up my grandma's data on mine but I was wrong. I can not seem to save the game onto my new account, and I have even tried to back it up to Itunes and then copy it onto my phone after having signed into my own account. And I don't know how to properly use Icloud. I am a mess. I am completely lost and have found no help on the web. (All people seem to have to deal with is sharing Apple IDs with different Game Center Accounts for the kids and transferring apps from one of their devices to another.)
I am so worried I am going to mess up and will lose the whole thing completely.
I have just started another game with my own account but since I am using my grandma's, the data is erased. It's one or the other but I definitely prefer saving Campus Life. I do not like the idea of having to only pick one.
I do not know any technical terms, so if you understand or even have the slightest clue about what I am talking about, I applaud you.
This seems like mission impossible, so if anyone can help in any way, I would be really grateful.
Thanks in advance for your time and thoughts!

I meant to press on "This solved my question"... Sorry if you needed the points.
Thank-you and I will just go back and forth between the accounts.

My two iPads share an Apple ID. How can I create a separate Game Center account so they can play each other?

My two iPads share an Apple ID. How can I create a separate Game Center account so they can play each other?

1. This is a year old post. Things have changed, the answer is no longer accurate due to how the OS functions now.
2. You can't have a second Gamecenter account tied to the same Apple ID, because the Apple ID is the game center account. They are not separate things.
3. The OP said they had 2 iPads, which means they can use a different Apple ID for Gamecenter on the second iPad.
4. You can still creare Apple ID's specifically for game center without changing them for the other services on the other devices.

I have the same issue. Young children who cannot get Apple ID's but we all want separate Gamecenter accounts.
You need to get Apple ID's for them. They aren't getting them, you are. You can manage these new ID{s yourself. You can even make sure they have no credit card and are not associated with any other service on the device. So essentially they are Apple ID's for GameCente only.

How do i make a new game center account

how do i make a new game center account

If you are logged into your old game center account on your device, follow these steps:
1.) go to settings
2.) scroll all the way down until you see the game center tab and click on it
3.) you should see an option to change your profile name; click inside the box
4.) type in your desired profile name and then it should either give you an option to save or if you exit out it should save by itself. To check, just repeat the steps up until #3 but don't click the box. You should see your new game center name.
Hope I helped!

How can I retrieve a forgotten Game Center account?

I have a Clash of Clans account and I'm playing it for about 2 years. It was level 97 and it's currently in town hall 9. I'm afraid that I will lost my game if my phone gets broken. That's why I want my account to be linked to a different device, but I can't do it because it's asking me to log in first to my Game Center account. How can I retrieve my Game Center account? I just changed my Apple I.D. when Apple updated it's IOS to IOS 8, because it required me to do so. But when I wanted to log in my Game Center account it asks me to log in in my game, but it kept on saying that my game is already attached in another Game Center account. What am I suppose to do? Please help me. I don't want to lost my game that I played for years now.

Howdy kanereyes,
In order to use the Game Center settings and progress from that game, you will need to log in to the Game Center account you have been using with it. You can change Game Center accounts on any device using the steps in this article -
Using Game Center on your Mac or iOS device - Apple Support
Specifically -
Sign in to Game Center
Open Game Center and sign in using your Apple ID. If you don't have an Apple ID, select Create New Apple ID. If you need to sign in with a different Apple ID, follow these steps:
iOS: Go to Settings and tap Game Center > Apple ID > Sign Out.
OS X: Go to the Me tab and click Account > Sign Out.
When you sign in with a different Apple ID, you'll see different scores, achievements, and friends.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

How do you create a new Game center account for IOS 8.1?

I really want to know how to create a Game center account on IOS 8.1. Can u please help me?

You can change the account by tapping or clicking Account and then signing out of the current account and into the new one(Apple ID).

How can i have same billing account with two different game center accounts

I Need two different game centeraccounts on two different devices thatshare same apple id

I looked at this post last night and assumed that the OP had decided he did not have a question; however, since you decided to post......
Mac or iDevice, is forever 'connected' with the AppleID
actually, that is not correct. It can be wiped and disassociated; it is any OS or app obtained at the app store which is tethered to the Apple ID used to obtain it, not the hardware. See the SLA.
If a device was tethered forever, it could never be re-sold - obviously.
As for the OP's question: I am not sure as I could not find any reference in the legal documents available, but I believe it is not possible - one Apple ID = one account.

How can I reach my other Game Center account?

Hi,
I have used more than one GameCenter account on a single Apple ID and I am wondering how to access both, because every time I sign in, GameCenter logs in to my other account. How can I log in to my othner account?
Thanks.

Having updated to iOS7 how can I use a different Game Centre account than the one that is connected to my Apple ID?

Having updated to iOS7, how can I use a more than one Game Centre? I have children linked to my Apple ID as they are too young to have thier own ID.

Yes, you can certainly create a new Apple ID at appleid.apple.com (which will have to be associated with a different email address from your current ID) and then change the various settings and applications on one of your iPhones to use this new ID.

Can i have different game center accounts on the same apple id (ie my daughters iPod and my iPhone)?

my daughter has an ipod touch 4th gen and i have an iphone 4. does she need to have her own apple id in order to play gamecenter games on her own account? if so, is this a new thing?

Creating a new iTunes account does not remove any purchases made on a different account.
If you want to create a new account : iTunes: How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes
Or if you will want to use it in the stores and don't want to give credit card details : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method
Or if you are not currently logged into an account in game centre then you should have a 'create a new Apple id' link at the bottom of the login screen in it.

How can I restore my original game center account to my iPhone after an update?

I just updated my phone to the latest ios thing. It deleted everything off of my phone, so it was brand new. Like, it could have just come out of the box. I finally got my contacts and music back, but 1. none of my apps will load 2. my gamecenter account won't let me in. I tried logging in with my old username and password, but it wants an apple account and it won't work for mine. How do I restore my progress in games, as well as the apps? Can I just restore my phone to the way it was before the update?

HT4314 Missing Game Center account

I have 1 Apple ID and 2 Game Center accounts (Mom and Kid playing things like Dragon Vale together)...
I used to be able to access Game Center account A from my iPad and Game Center account B from my iPhone.
Ever since the revised Terms & Conditions were released (September 2012), I now can not login to Account B - it seems to have disappeared?
When I check Account A (on the ipad), Account B still shows up as an active Friend. Now, I am stuck as only Account A when I logged back into Game Center on the iPhone using the Apple ID.
Any ideas on how I can retrieve the 'lost' game center account???
Thanks!

Try restoring from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
If you resore from iTunes backup
To help prevent the last backup from being overwritten and thus erasing the Messages from the last backup turn off autosyncing so that you have to overtly start a sync. To turn off go iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says "Prevent iPods...".

I have two ipods in my house that were set up under the same email. I have since assigned two different emails. How can I change the game center account so that is not shared by both ipods because it is for two different users and they are not happy?

By "game center account", do you mean Apple ID?
If so, you can change it.
1. Tap settings and navigate to iTunes and App Stores
2. Tap "Apple ID" and then tap "Sign Out"
3. Log in with a different ID.
