After 6.1.2 update Game Center says "not allowed to sign in on this device"

I just downloaded the 6.1.2 IOS update for my 4th gen Ipod touch, which caused a couple of my games to start over. To resume progress, I attempted to log into Game Center, but it keeps telling me that "you are not allowed to sign in on this device". I have done multiple searches online and reset my password, etc, but I can find no solution to this - when the error come up, it gives me the option to cancel or go to settings. I have tried changing some of the settings, but I am unclear what setting would cause this to happen. I would be very appreciative if someone could help me out!

Have you looked at the previous discussions listed on the right side of this page under the heading "More Like This"?

I had restrictions turned on for the kids. I turned it off. Went to GC and it opened and I could log in. I went back to settings and turned the restrictions back on. Worked for us!

HT4314 Game Center won't let me sign in "on this device". Keeps sending me to settings.

Game Center asks me to sign in everytime I open up my sudoku app. It won let me sign in to make that stop. It just says that I can't do it on my device (an iPhone 3GS with the new software update) and sends me to setting. I don't know what to do, help?

Ok, after a little fishin around all sorted. Did a settings reset and all is well. I can now get into game centre.

How to reverse your Game Center account if its been signed into a different device by accident.

My son signed into my Game Center account on his iPod touch and it reverted all my apps on my iPod to his. How do I reverse it to get all my apps back?

Can any one plz help me out on this.
Hello,
Refer:
KB31489 BlackBerry Protect for BlackBerry smartphones does not display any backup files to restore
As this thread documents, using only BBProtect as your backup strategy is insufficient and risky. Done incorrectly, you can completely wipe out the backups you have on the BB servers. If that happens, there is no way to retrieve them...once gone, gone for good.
Good luck!

Iphone 4 has no service after replacing screen and updating, phone company says sim is fine. any ideas? thanks

We had this happen with a ipad mini, took it back to person who worked on it, after a week with trying to get it working again, he replaced it. I will agree with the other replies take it back to repair place there must be something inside the phone that if you don't do repair excalty right it messes up all phone functions. Also I would give the repair person a time frame to either get it working or replace it.

Why did my Game Center say I accepted a friend this year when I accepted her two years ago?

Why did my Game Center say I accepted a friend this year when I accepted her two years ago? Is there a glitch in the app? Is this common?

It might be an error on GameCenter's end

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

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.

Why is game center taking so long to sign in?

Hey! I have an annoying problem. I just got the 6.0.1 update. Every time I try to play a game, it forces me to sign in to game center. When I click sign in, it takes hours to do so. I've been restarting my phone to try and fix it, but that doesn't work. I haven't been able to sign in once because of this. Please help! Thanks

This may have something to do with your Internet connection, the size of the video you are watching or the amount of items running in your Mac at the same time.

HT4314 My Game Center is not letting me log in on my ipad but I have no issues with my iPhone. Does anyone else have this issue lately.

My Game Center is not letting me log in on my ipad but I have no issues with my iPhone. Does anyone else have this issue lately. This has just stared recently. When I go to Game Center is just trying to load continuously.

I have the same exact problem. I have literally done everything that everyone says works but it hasn't solved mine. I went to the Recieved at and It has my number and my email right under neath it but I can not select my Number. My Email is clickable but my number is like a super faded grey not like you can't see it but it is not close to black.
PLEASSEEE HELP!!!!

HT4314 I have a iPad and iPhone with the same Apple ID, but on Game Center I have used the same id for both devices and they are two different profiles and I was wondering how to have one of the accounts on both devices.

Hi Jamesdwills,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
If you are using the same Apple ID on both devices, the Game Center profile should be the same.
Check out this information from the iPad User Guide. Try signing out of the Game Center on both devices and then sign back in with the correct Apple ID:
Using Game Center
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4314
Game Center settings - iPad User Guide
http://help.apple.com/ipad/7/#/iPad9a13d039
Game Center settings
Go to Settings > Game Center, where you can:
Sign out (tap your Apple ID)
Allow invites
Let nearby players find you
Edit your Game Center profile (tap your nickname)
Get friend recommendations from Contacts or Facebook
Specify which notifications you want for Game Center. Go to Settings > Notifications > Game Center. If Game Center doesn’t appear, turn on Notifications.
Change restrictions for Game Center. Go to Settings > General > Restrictions.
Cheers,

HT4314 Game center will not recognize that I play any game center games.

Game center will not recognize that I play any game center games. Also, my friends can interact with my game saves, but I cannot, because they do not appear in the "friends/neighbors" window when I play. What can I do to fix this?

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

After 10.6.5 update my mac will not reboot

After 10.6.5 update my mac will not reboot. It just spins at the white apple screen. Luckily boot camp works but, all of my important stuff is on the mac side. What can I do? I did not backup(I know that was bad), can I get my old settings and files back? What do I do?

Try sig's suggestion first, then, if that doesn't fix it, try some of the fixes here:

Some of them won't be relevant if you can't even boot, of course.

How can I choose another name for Game Center? (not a nick)

How can I choose another name for Game Center ? (not a nick)

Hi XxCarrisxX,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what you are asking. If you are talking about changing to or using a different Apple ID in Game Center, you may find the following article helpful:
Sign in to your Game Center account using your Apple ID. If you don't have an Apple ID or another Apple account, tap or click Create New Account to create an account to use with Game Center.
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.
Apple Support: Using Game Center
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4314
However, make sure you are aware of the following:
Note: Please note each Apple ID has its own associated scores, achievements, and friends.
Apple IDs are also tied to your other Apple services, and therefore should not be created lightly.
Regards,
- Brenden
