Game Center ID

I rushed to secure a nickname on Game Center yesterday as soon as the new iOS was released. I logged in with my Apple ID, went through the location, DOB, terms, etc. process and then selected a nickname. I was granted the name and was logged in. Today I go to Game Center, log in with my Apple ID and it starts the account creation process again, I choose my old nickname, and (no surprise) it says that name is taken... by me! I don't know what is going on. At least I'm not missing much right now, Ms. Pac Man being the only Game Center game at the moment.
Help?

Ok, so I logged in with my email address instead of my Apple ID and everything is fine now.

Can I play Game Center Games with other family members sharing one Apple ID

I have several IOS devices sharing the same Apple ID that my sons and wife use. I have set up a game center account using that ID and can find no way that we can play head to head games on those multiple devices against each other using that one Apple ID login, even if I create multiple Nicknames. Am I missing something?

An Apple ID is just an account that uses an email address and password. It does not have to be tied to iTunes. You can create one here. Create one each for your sons and wife.

How can I replace an older save file with a new one on game center?

Greetings,
I have been trying to change an older game saved file that I have created with my old Ipad with the new one that I have created on my new Ipad, both game files are played under my apple ID but I have no idea how to replace my older one with the new one.
The new file is superior to the old one so I wish to add the new saved file to my game center.

How can I transfer my old dragonvale island into my new game center account?

I restored my ipod, but now I had to make a new game center account. Since Dragonvale used my old GC account, it forgot my island and generated a new one. I dont wanna have to start over again. Help me! (dont say to start over)

You said you restored your iPod. Did you restore from backup? If yu did then yur game progress and Game Center stuff should have beeb restored.

Game Center Multiple Users

I have 2 iPads and 2 iPhones. They are all under under the same Apple ID but are used by different people in my household. I signed into Game Center on the first device and created a user profile. When is launch Game Center on the second device, it signs in using the the same profile I created on the first device and I don't see an option to add another profile (which was possible before iOS7). Did they change that? Is it possible to add multiple Game Center profiles under the same Apple ID? If so how?
I want to be able to create multile profiles so my family members can play each other.
Thanks.

You can't. Game Center is a system of leaderboards and achievements, not a data storage service.

Can't change Game Center settings on a french iOS (maybe other languages)

I just spent a fair amount of time with the support concerning a serious bug in Game Center on a French system, I think it is worth sharing.
Summary:
On a french system, one cannot edit game center settings (country, emails, and more importantly, confidentiality — If your profile is public, you can't switch it to private)
Steps to Reproduce:
Setup iOS in french
Go to Game Center
touch the mail address (it has to be already configured)
choose to view account
Try using one of the following actions
change email address
confidentiality
country
Additional note : there is no Save button on the upper right corner
Expected Results:
A view controller should be pushed in the current navigation controller
Actual Results:
The view is simply scrolled to top
Regression:
I think this bug is present since first releases of Game Center
Workaround :
A solution to perform changes is to switch the system to english and when done, switch it back to french.

HT4314 can I have multiple game center accounts with one itunes account?

All members of the family havee iphones ipads associated with the same itunes account. How can they have seperate game center accounts?

they cant, and they should all have seperate Apple Id's

Help! i have one apple id but 2 game center accounts.......each mini has their own but now they seem to obtain the same game center id......help!

i have one apple id.
i have 2 mini ipads with different game center id's but same apple id...
each ipad has their own email address setup, even though they can see all 3 email address...
why does the game center id no longer keep its own game center id?

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:

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.

Game Center "Games" and "Friends Tabs loads Forever

Well i can enter Game Center but when i go to "Friends" tab or "Games" tab it just loads forever, if i try with challenges i see the "no challenge" legend some with the turns tab (no turns) since i dont own a turn game and have no challenge from other friends, but i cant see Friends and Games tab since they wont stop loading.
a specific problem with it is that i tried to play Clash of Clans after having deleted it (but not from game center) and the game takes it as a new one as it says im not connected to Game Center.

Well it didn't work, it still loads forever the "Games" and "Friends" tabs, but my brother came yesterday and try to help me, i tried logging out of game center but when i go to settings>game center and log out, when i go back to settings (top left button) then go back to Game Center it says im logged in (as if i had never logged out) so my brother tried to log on his Game Center account after i logged out but then just started to load forever his account and when i tried to open the game center program it would just white screen with the loading disk forever, after doing what you told me things went back as before (my account, i can open Game Center but Friends and Games tabs wont load and games will act as if i were not connected to Game Center).
Thanks for everything tho guys i hope i can solve this issue its driving me mad!.

Just got a new iPad. How do I move my Game Center games? I keep getting another family member's account because we share our Apple ID.

Hi. I just got a new iPad. How to I move my Game Center games from my old iPod? My family uses one Apple ID, and I keep getting another
Family member's Game Center on my iPad!

Okay so I figured out the solution by reading other discussions. Basically you need to delete on your phone the icloud account and start up a new icloud account with a new email address. This is nice because you can still share apps without getting everyone elses things. The only thing that didn't get worked out was the notes...
On your phone go to settings and then icloud, scroll down and delete the account. Then just make a new icloud under a new email.

Why do i have two game center accounts on one apple id and how do i log into the other one

One day while i was bored i started up a game but all of my progress items and everything that i paid for was gone and it was the same in all of my other game center related apps. After a long chain of emails with the maker of the game he stopped being helpful but we figured out that i have two game center accounts but only one apple id. So how do i log into the account with all of my data?

Get a separate Apple ID for one of the phones. Or turn OFF iCloud contacts synching on the one you do not want contacts to synch.
Settings>>iCloud

Game Center issue with Apple ID

My son suddenly cannot log in to Game Center. When he tries it tell him: "This Apple ID has not yet been used in Game Center. Tap Continue to set up your account." He has been using his Apple ID and Game Center account since Christmas 2011. He didn't log out but one of his games asked him if he wanted to log in and he tried and this happened, almost like his log in time expired
We tried different games, same thing happens.
We have tried turning it off and turning it back on.
He doesn't want to lose all of the things he has on Game Center so creating a new account isn't an option. I searched for answers and have come across several people having similiar issues since 2010 but there hasn't been a single answer from anyone.
If anyone has any ideas or experience with this and could help I would GREATLY appreciate it,
Thank you for you time!

Yes. I have tried that. When I use the ID I had before, it sets it up as a new account and I don't want to lose my stats attached to my old account.
Let's say that my old nickname was "user10" and I used the email, "[email protected]" for my apple id. I changed my apple id to "[email protected]" and it changed my game center account to "mynew" and somehow I am friends with my old acct, "user10". I tried getting a password reset for "user10" but I apparently don't know my own birthday, which is possible because I usually give a false one, but the same false one each time.

HT4314 i have 2 game center account with 1 apple id but it will only access one account. it says the other id is used but i cant change . help.

I have a game center account that has 2 accounts in the same apple id. the problem is i can only access one account. when i try to type in for the second account it says already taken. How do i change to the 2nd account with the same apple id? Please help.

that's the issue, you bought the OS online so Donald is right, it is being mailed to you. post the URL where you bought it.
the 'app store' is an application running on OSX itself where you can DL software.
so, you have to wait for mountain lion to arrive.
if you want to get a clean OS on your machine now, do this
reboot holding down command/option/R (hoping your machine supports this)
open disk utility, erase your HD so you have a single mac journaled partition
choose install OSX on this HD
let it run. from what you said, you will be back on lion.

How can I disable Game Center in iOS6 if I don't want to go public?

Even with all notifications and banners, etc., turned ofgf for Game Center, some games still demand a SignIn/Out before allowing play. I don't want to compete with other users, and don't care how well they play either. There should be a general Opt-Out that works for us curmudgeons.

I just wanted to play Backgammon tonight. It looped through the signin pages ten times before I could. Forcing Game Center on me just insures that I won't every buy another game...
