Can't restore iPhone 5 with iTunes error 3. and my iPad3 and iPhone 5s can't login to Game Center
Hi. This is the first time since I knew apple devices..
I own - iPhone 4 with iOS 5.1
- iPhone 4 with iOS 7.0.4
- iPhone 4S with iOS 7.0.4
- iPhone 5 "out of service"
- iPhone 5s with iOS 7.0.4
- iPad 2 with iOS 5.1.1
- iPad 3 with iOS 7.0.4
Ever since I own my first iPhone 4 I never face unresolved problem like the 2 I'll mention.
1- suddenly my iPhone 5 lost mobile company signal and word searching appears instead but no signal for the hole day so I changed the sim with other provider and since it gave me the same result I searched the web and the seems no solution other than restore.
I did restore and update to iOS 7.0.4 but at the restore takes at the last 1% in the last moment of restore it will take loooong time then gave me error 3. And now for more than a month the iPhone stuck with recovery logo. Almost I tried every trick in the book . Change USB cable, port, PC. PC with other OS . Even freezing the iPhone as I read here noooooo result the same happened again and again.
2- when I update my iPad3 to 7.0.1 everything went normal till one day ago suddenly I found my account logged out of the Game Center by its self and when I wanted to log again it will gave me error of can't connect to server or cocoa error??? Strange thing I can use other account to log in but mine No. Only my account is forbidden in my device while any other account I can login normally. Also my account and Game Center working without any problem in all other devices.
I also tried every trick , change my ID then password then the whole ID domin nothing works. I restart normally then by pressing power/home. I logged off my self from all other devices and tried but also no hope.
So - my account has no problem working with any other device
- My iPad had no problem with other accounts in Game Center except me. While the same account had no problem with iCloud or email in the same iPad.
I don't and I will not DO restore since it is bizarre problem and I already faced same problem in my iPhone 5s when I restore old backup to iOS 7.0.4 and was the only solution is to set up as NEW iPhone
I saw similar problem but no difinite answer from Apple itself and this is strang but always I was loyal customer and already convinced about 8 of my friends to use iPhone during last 3 years and I expect apple to be loyal to me in the first time I am seeking there actuate direct advice.

Can't login to Game Center after updating my iPad to iOS7
Hi there
I can't seem to login to Game Center after updating my iPad. I don't know whether it's the update, or the fact that I forgot my password.
Anyway, how do I get back into my account? Just to let you guys know, the email account I used to setup the Game Center account is no longer valid.
Help!Some folks have discovered that changing their DNS service fixes FaceTime connection issues.
The ideal way is to configure your modem/router with DNS service, but often settings in Settings/Wi-Fi on your iPad will override the router settings. Try either of these;
OpenDNS
208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
Google Public DNS

Can't login into game center on my iPhone...
Hi!
I can't login into my game center on my iPhone!
It works fine on my iPad, but if I try to log in on my iPhone I get to see this:
http://www.suta.ch/downloads/gamecenter.jpg
"Sandbox (1P42)
Choose your region " and so on...
So it doesn't recognize my account... I don't know how to solve this problem, any suggestions?bump~!
Have similar issue to my i-phone 4.
I logged out from the game center this morning and try to re-login using the same ID(my Apple ID), it just keep popping out a window saying "Could not Connect to Game Center server".
Country region = Singapore.
ANyone, please help!
THanks. -
Can I have multiple Game Center accounts with one Apple ID?
My wife and I use the same Apple ID but want to have individual game enter accounts. Is this possible? Or does my wife need to set up her own Apple ID? Any one got any ideas?
After 2 hours worth of searching with no answer, I decided to run a test and it worked. This is what I did to have multiple Game Center IDs on iOS7. (People responding may have over looked this detail because they assumed it was obvious, but it wasn't)
Answer: you MUST have multiple Apple ID accounts, however, you use the main one to log in to SETTINGS > ITUNES & APP STORE.
1. I deleted the Alternate Email Address associated with my account
2. I created an entire new Apple ID with this email address
3. I login in to SETTINGS > ITUNES & APP STORE with my original Apple ID (credit card on file)
4. I login to Game Center, iCloud, etc... with my kid's NEW Apple ID
So purchasing still goes under our shared account and game center, iCloud, etc... go under my kid's Apple ID.

Can't log into game center, Can't log into game center
My son has updated his game center and now it won't let him sign back in - when he puts in his apple id it asks him to create a new account and when he adds his nickname it says it's already associated with another account - this is driving me crazy can someone please help or he'll lose all his dragon vale progress - thank you
I had this problem when I recently upgraded my iPhone to iOS6. I had somehow ended up with two AppleIDs, and the one that I hadn't been using previously was asking for a nickname. I finally figured out that I was using the wrong account, changed it in the iTunes store settings for my phone (I assume there's an equivalent with the touch?) and was then able to access the Game Center and see all my dragons again. I managed NOT to have my blood pressure shoot through the roof at the loss of my little pixels.

Downloaded latest IOS 7.0.2 and it crashed my iphone 4. Now Ive got nothing and it wont restore when connected with Itunes cos Error Message 4005 comes up. Cant find it listed anywhere. Help
Hi!
It looks like there might be some security settings or software on your laptop that's preventing the restore process from working.
Check out this article in Apple's support. It shows you the steps you can take to try to get around error 1611.
Like diesel vdub said, a DFU-mode restore might give you success where a regular restore might not, so maybe you can try that.
What you need to do is put your phone into DFU mode, which is a low-level mode that helps the restore process get a little more done, or it can help iTunes get around certain roadblocks (hopefully like the one you're experiencing!). Your computer will install special DFU-iPhone drivers for it, and then iTunes will see it as a phone that needs restoring.
To get your phone into DFU mode:
Plug your phone into your laptop.
Turn the phone off.
Press and hold the power/lock button. Keep it held in, even after the display turns on and you see something on the screen. As soon as you see something on the screen, start holding the home button as well as the power button, so that they're being pressed together.
Keep both buttons pressed down for 10 seconds.
After 10 seconds, release the power button, but keep holding home until the laptop sees a new USB device. Once you see that, you're in DFU mode, and you can let go of buttons. Your iPhone screen will be blank during it all, even though it's actually on, in DFU mode.
Now your restore should work!
If your phone shows the Apple logo or anything else while you're trying to get it into DFU mode, then something went wrong. Try the steps again. If it suddenly starts up normally again, try reducing the time to a bit less than 10 seconds--try reducing it by about a second at a time. It should work! -
Hey guys. My IPhone 3GS is unlocked and i went to update the software and it said that an unknown error has occurred and said it needed to be restored to connect with Itunes. When i got to restore it, it gets about 3/4 of the way done, says an unknown error has occured(1015). I have no clue what to do and all and any help would be amazing.

When iPhone locked and restored through sync with iTunes do you lose everything on the phone
When iPhone locked and restored through sync with iTunes do you lose everything on the phone
Hello Jamiem75
If you have to restore, yes everything will be erased from your iPhone. If you have a backup, you can put that backup after the restore.

My iphone 3gs says I need to restore my phone with itunes. when i connect the phone it says i need to unlock the phone which i cannont due because of the caution on the phone. How do i fix this?
Hold down the power button and home button at the same time until the phone powers on, shuts back off, powers on again and continue to hold it until it shows the itunes logo to plug in to itunes. This should allow you to restore without unlocking it.
