Change Apple ID on ipad, keep Game Center games and progress

sorry if this has been answered, but atm i cant seem to find a clear answer to it.
ill keep it as simple as possible
about a year ago (not 100%sure when, its the newest version), my wife and I got an ipad. i didnt have an apple id, i didnt own any apple products. so we used her Apple ID on it.
now, i got an iphone, a macbook and an ipad.. and wanna have my Apple ID on the IPad, but i really dont want to lose all my progress in the games i play in Game Center.
is there a way to change apple id, keep game progress in GC? i dont care what happens to any other apps EXCEPT for those in GC
thanks for all responces and answers in advance
best regards
Aleksander

iin GC you can change accounts to a new one without loosing the progrecces am i right ?
No, as I said, all the progress and everything else in your game center account is tied to the AppleID you log in with. If you change the AppleID, that new AppleID will have none of your old accounts information. I don't know how much plainer I can say that.

Thank you for trying to help. I followed your instructions, it took 6 hours to download, and then said it could not solve the problem (something to do with error 9?). It will have to go back to Apple - its only 3 days since it came out of the package and its very disappointing for him. Looks like I have to hang around in the Apple store in Plymouth all tomorrow until they can fix it, or will change it. Thanks for your help.

You can't. All apps, and any other content from the store, are tied to the account that downloaded them, and they will remain tied to that account - so only the account that bought/downloaded an app can download updates to an app. Are you having problems downloading an app update via the app's own account ?

if I delete my account on my iphone/ipad to log on with the new details, won't it delete the 'data on this device associated with this account' or will it all be still there when I log on with new id?
If you log out, it will ask if you want to delete the data on your advice.
All data will remain in iCloud.
Login back in with new AppleID will restore it.

The itunes on My new iPad keeps going to podcasts and Not to music or videos

The itunes on My new iPad keeps going to podcasts and Not to music or videos?

I had the same problem with my iPad, i couldn't get the newer version of itunes because the computer was too old and my iPad couldnt sync with the old itunes. I got a PC from school a few months later so that solved the problem for me. Unfortunately i don't think there would be a program to put your music on your iPod, iTunes should be the only way to transfer files to Apple devices. What operating system are you running and what version of it is it?

Will apple replace my ipad if i dropped it and screen gets black light, will apple replace my ipad if i dropped it and screen gets black light

Not unless you've got accidental damage cover on it with Apple and I don't think that's even covered with Applecare - if you have that then check with them directly.
Otherwise you may need to see if you can claim for it under your house contents insurance.

When will Apple make an ipad that lets you make and receive phone calls?

When will Apple make an ipad that lets you make and receive phone calls?

The iphone is too small for me to use for the internet (maybe it's my age)-- especially for Facebook--where I am a Page Administrator, but the mini ipad would be just right for both phone and internet. I'll bet they make a new ipad able to make and receive phone calls right after I buy the current one.

If you want to sign into a new Apple ID on the iPad go to Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID. Tap the old ID and sign out. Sign in with the new ID.

HT204053 need to change apple id on ipad for cloud like all my other emails has changed

need to change apple id on my ipad for cloud to match all my email sign in names that i have changed for apple store account and etc.

*Did you update your AppleID or did you create a new AppleID with a new emaill address?*
Thanks, Chris for helping me. I have posted this in 6 places online and no one will touch it!
Shitums. I can't recall, Chris. I was on the phone with Apple and they walked me through all of it. They changed my email/ID, to my new one, then I went into itunes and changed it. Then I went to settings on iPad and changed it and all was good! So we hung up.
Then I went to update all my apps and up pops the OLD ID. BUT if you go into settings the new one is present as is on iTunes.:( I have also synced twice and backed up, thinking that would tell the iPad update thingy the new ID.
*Go to the app store, click on Featured at the bottom, scroll all the way down, click on Account then sign out and sign in.*
I will do this now!
Don't forget me!
Okay. I'm on it. This doesn't sound like something I have tried in the last 24 hours.

Change Apple ID on iPad app?

Can I change Apple ID associated with a newsstand magazine app? I am moving to a new iPad and am using a different Apple ID on the new one.

You may authorize an iPad to use content from more than one Apple ID. However, the most simple way to do this is to authorize a Mac or a PC to use the content from multiple Apple IDs and commingle the content in the same iTunes content libraries. Then sync all the content to the iPad.

My ipad keeps crashing. Safari and game apps are crashing, a lot!

My ipad keeps crashing almost every day. Some of my apps, ie magic puzzles, Facebook and Safari crash every day now. I cannot bring up magic puzzles at all. Any suggestions?

Also reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.

Why does my iPad keep moving between screens and shaking?

Why does my iPad keep shaking and/ or move between apps?

No idea why it is doing that, but try rebooting the iPad.
Reboot 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.

Why do I get an apple on my Ipad after it locks up and then comes back to life?

My wifi 32 gb Retina Ipad seems to crash . Seems like it started after IOS 6 upgrade... Looking at web pages it might just close application... Not too bad ,, then on occasion it will lock up and I hold the side button and then push the home button and it will go dark and then show a white apple in the middle and then after a while repair itself..... Any Ideas? Anyone know what the apple symbol means? Thanks Joe

If the reset and restore doesn't work, try and force your iPad into Recovery Mode (data will be lost)
1. Turn off iPad
2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
5. Release the Home button
6. Open iTune
7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
8. Use iTune to restore iPad
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

Change Apple ID on iPad

Hello Apple Community,
My Apple ID is currently in use for both my devices (iPhone and iPad) and my son's iPad. This solves the need for me to control any purchases made on the iPad -- he has a reward system that enables him to save for apps, I input my password and all is well.
However I just found out about the iTunes monthly gift card, which would greatly help the budget setting and avoid having to physically input the password or passing my password on to another person e.g. when I am at work.
My questions:
I realize he will now have to have his own Apple ID so I can send a gift card. He has one, used primarily for Game Center and iMessage/FaceTime. However, as mentioned, the other apps are tied to my ID and my credit card. So A) can I switch his ID to reflect his own ID and b) more crucially, will he still be able to keep the apps purchased via my ID? Obviously want to maintain his progress etc. on his apps as well as avoid re-purchase.
Is there any way this can be done?

Go into Settings > Store, tap on the id on the right-hand side and log out of it, and then log in with the new one. If you have any apps on the iPad that were downloaded via the old id then you will only be able to download updates via that id - apps are tied to the id that bought/downloaded them, not to the device that they are on, and they can't be transferred to another account.
