Cannot connect to friends using Game Center

Hi,
Me & my girlfriend both have a legitimate iPhone4 (no jailbreak or anything like that).We have iOS 4.3 installed.
We would like to play games against each other, using the Game Center.
So far we have tried 2 games - 'Fruit Ninja' & 'Yaniv', and in both cases when onetries to invite the other for a game - we get a message 'Can't Connect' after 2-3 seconds of 'Waiting...'.
We have tried dozens of times, in different times of the day, in different locations - using 3G or Wifi (both of us), and out of dozens of tries - we have managed to connect to each other only once on Wifi, and only once on 3G (the 3G time was interrupted 
during the game).
The connection to the internet itself works fine, we can both log into the game center app and see our scores and each others scores in the different games, but we cannot seem to connect to each other.
This is not a problem with the game itself, because we have tried connecting with  2 differenet games.It's a problem with the game center.
We have made sure all notifications for the game center and the games themselves are turned on.
We have tried 'killing' the game center app and the game app itself, and trying from fresh - didn't work.
We tried logging off the game center and logging back on - didn't work.
We are frustrated that this simple task gives us so much headache.
Can someone please help us solve this problem ???
Thanks.

Having experienced this issue before, I can honestly say I dont know exactly what causes it or what fixes it. 
But, what I did was make sure I cleared my entire list of processes and log out of facebook.  Then try loading the King games and attempt to sync w/ Facebook.
I tried that a couple times and it eventually worked.

  • Can't connect with friends in Game Center, automatch works fine.

    Sons iPad 1 iOS 5.1.1 will not connect with friends but will automatch just fine, all other iPads and iPhones in the house work just fine. Any ideas?

    We finally got it working, I made sure all of my notifications and invites were set to ON for Game Center, and specific games.
    Good luck yours!  Seems like Apple still has some tweaking to do on this system.

  • How can my wife and I be friends in game center if we use the same Itunes account?

    How can my wife and I be friends in game center if we use the same Itunes account?

    You can set up multiple accounts in Game Centre, sign out and create new account. You just need a different email address from any existing Apple ID's and a new password. You can still use the old account for purchases.

  • Cannot add friends in Game Center with child account

    I have two child accounts with their own iPads and unable to add friends in Game Center other than the family group owner.  All restrictions have been turned off in settings and Game Center profiles are setup as public and allow invites.  I would like to friend my two child accounts together so that they can play together.  Is there some restriction for child accounts in Game Center?

    Nevermind...after some more searching I found this, it worked!

    Scroll down until you see the instructions for the Terminal commands, and remember that you need to hit the control key to make the commands work, NOT the command key!

  • PI 7.11: Cannot connect to server using message server:...

    Hello Guys,
    we make the Application Management for a Customer PI System.
    Scenario:
    - the SAP Gui Connection to the ABAP Stack is routed via SAPRouter and Works fine.
      SAP Gui -> our SAP Router -> VPN Box from Customer -> Firewall Customer -> ABAP Stack PI System
    - WebAccess its working fine, the Customer use Webdispatcher on every PI Server...
      Browser -> VPN Box from Customer -> Firewall Customer -> Java Stack (Port: 5xx00 btw. 81xx (Webdispatcher))
    Problem:
    Our Problem ist, we can not proceed the Integration Builder or the ESB, the Java Web Start works fine and open the Logon Screen Correctly -> but i fill the Logon Screen with my User name and Password and press Logon come the follwing Error:
    "Cannot connect to server using message server: ms://<hostname>.<domain>:8134/P4"
    In the Details from the Error Message:
    "<hostname>.<domain>:53404 Reason: com.sap.engine.services.rmi_p4.P4IOException:
    Cannot open connection to host: <IP-Adress of Central Instance> and Port: 53404"
    The Customer says, the Firewall is open with the IP Adresses and P4 Port but i dont think so...
    Can everybody help me, or have tips for me! I have checked a lot of OSS Messages (PI High Availabilty etc... its all correct on the System)
    Sorry for my bad English
    Best Regards,
    Markus

    Hi Markus,
    did you check if the browser is using a proxy? (In this case your scenario unfortunately won't work).
    P4-port should generally be routed via a proxy (described in the help.sap.com), but within the PI-Tools(JNLP) the proxy-usage is not implemented.  There is even a SAP-note that describes how to check the JavaWebStart-Proxyconfiguration, but this won't help either.
    If there is a proxy defined in the browser everything is working fine till you pass the logon-screen but even with the correct "javaws"-settings you won't be able to go on.
    (This problem is pretty bad if you do have developers and the SAP-servers seperated because of security issues. I'm hoping that this malfunction will be solved with upcoming patches.)
    Solution: Establish a connection without any proxy in between.
      E.g.: a terminal server in the same network
    It would be helpful to find more people with the same problem to force a fix from SAP for that.
    If anyone else is having problems with this, please add a comment to this thread.
    Best regards
    Christian

  • Can I Use Game Center With Another iPad User?

    Am I able to play a game simultaneously with another iPad user by using game center? For example, can we play a hangman game against each other from different locations if we do it through game center? And if so, how?
    Thank you.

    This is possible, however it is not as easy as that.
    If you want to allow someone to have access to a purchase you have made on your Apple ID, you must log into their device with your Apple ID and download that purchase..You would then simply log back out again.
    Every purchase you make with your Apple ID gives you the licence to store the purchase accross 5 devices.
    On the other persons device, go to Settings > Store > Apple ID > Sign Out.
    Sign into their device the same way, then go into iBooks > Store > Purchased, and download your book.
    Once downloaded, go back into Settings > Store > Apple ID > Sign Out, then sign back in with their Apple ID.

  • Can't add friend on Game Center

    Heey,
    I just got an iPhone 6 plus and I'm trying to add a friend on Game Center to play games against her.
    Unfortunately I tried to add her through her username, e-mailaddress and iCloud-address but she did not recieve an invitation.
    She either tried to add me through my username, e-mailaddress and iCloud-address but did not recieve an invitation.
    This is really annoying and can't find a working solution on google.
    Thank you very much
    Greatings,
    iJeanPaul

    So I guess Apple Moderators don't really appear on these discussions much to answer questions. Good to know I suppose considering I have the same problem. I have never been able to add a friend request to anyone on Game Center and there is no option for support on the app itself.

  • Cannot connect to server using message server: ms://xiidhasoft:50004/P4

    Hi SAP Guru's
    When PISUPER or any any of the enduser is trying to login in the Integration Builder , they are getting error
    Cannot connect to server using message server: ms://xiidhasoft:50004/P4
    I have tryed to search in SDN and got below solution but no success
    1. Exchange Profile of PI - http://host:port/exchangeProfile
    2. Check with the rmi port number.
    3. if rmi port number is empty or any number is present ( check with Tr code: SMICM - services - check for p4 port number - it will be ex: 5<nr>04)
    4. fill the rmi port number as present in the P4.
    OR
    implement note 864268
    I have Netweaver PI 7.1 .
    Please suggest some alternative solution.
    Thanks & Regards

    You may check your local PC Java Network Setting.
    Troubleshooting:
    Probably Javau2122 WebStart does not detect the correct Proxy Settings. In this case please proceed as follows:
    To change the Proxy Settings for Javau2122 Web Start:
    1. Click Start --> Run  and enter javaws. Press button OK.
    2. Control Panel -> Programs ->Java -> Network Settings...
    3. Select Direct Connection to switch off the proxy settings and press button OK.
    If this still does not work, select Use proxy server to set manually the HTTP Proxy and Port.
    Contact your network administrator for the correct settings.

  • Since a I have intalled OS X Lion I cannot connect internet mobile using my ZTE mobile pen

    Since a I have intalled OS X Lion I cannot connect internet mobile using my ZTE mobile pen.

    It sounds like you need updated drivers. They are hard to find for that thing. This is what I found on a cursory search:
    http://studiofourfour.zendesk.com/entries/20305042-mac-os-x-lion-3-zte-usb-broad band-drivers
    You should consider contacting the manufacturer or cell provider that sold you the modem for support.

  • I can't add friends on game center on my 5S

    I have recently switched phones, from iPhone 4 to 5S and everything have been good. However today when I tried to add a friend on Game Center I couldn't. It says something about 'can't add friends from this device' and I have no idea why. Also my friend tried adding me instead but I didn't get the request. Please help.

    i tried that that several times in the beginning, but then I finally figured it out ! I had to go to settings then to restrictions , in restrictions I needed to allow Game Center to add friends, but then I just decided to turn all restrictions off in general . glad that's over and done with ! Now it works !  Thank you for your response though!

  • HT4314 If you use Game Center does it use data charges on your bill?

    Can someone tell me if you are playing games on Game Center does it charge on your account as data charges?

    This weekend, the AT&T tower near our home failed.  We had no AT&T cell service whatsoever.  During this time, our home WiFi was always running at 100%.  No iMessage would go through, nor could any iMessage be received.  Both my and my wife's iPhone 4S were connected to the home WiFi and were used with it.  Two things did not work: cell service and iMessage.
    I think that iMessage seems to rely on the phone data plan, or at least the cell service must be in range to use it.
