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.

TS1702 I have problem with accessing to my Game Center. I was not able to log in to y game center. The loading took anyone ever had this problem? How do I solve this issue?

My Game Centre was disabled. I was advise to login to my Game Center to enable my achievements. But everythime I login in to my Game Center, it take ages for the loading to process and just hang there. Can some one help me to solve this issue?

If the problem persists, you'll probably have to make another apple id, it wont take off any games or music or apps or anything you've bought it will all stay there, i have two apple id's and i don't have a problem with anything.

The Game Center is "unable to load data due to network connectivity issues or errors".

The Game Center is "unable to load data due to network connectivity issues or errors".
My internet is fine: all other apps that do not rely on the Game Center work, as does my browser and other online functions; additionally, a friend's iPhone connects to his Game Center perfectly while he is sitting next to me.
Closing the Game Center app and then reopening it is ineffective. Opening the options for the Game Center in the settings, logging out of my Apple ID, then logging back in, and then reopening the Game Center is ineffective. Opening the options for the Game Center in the settings, logging out of my Apple ID, then reopening the Game Center app and logging back in from there is ineffective.
This issue has gone on for more than a month, and so the phone has gone through all variations of "turn it off then back on again, refresh the system, etc etc" that are the basic first suggestions for trouble shooting.
One game app, which required a Game Center profile to launch, stopped working entirely, and would return a message saying something like "connect to the Game Center". I eventually deleted it to free up space. Other games which can be linked to the Game Center to connect with friends simply fail to link, returning "Game Center unavailable". This is the aspect that is currently bothering me the most: I cannot play games with friends unless the app can also link to Facebook and connect to friends from there.
When I open the Game Center, I see the following screen. The bubbles float gently, and it seems as if I had the ability to update my "status". However doing so results in a message that has vanished once the app is reopened.
Upon tapping Games, either the bubble from the main screen or the option on the ribbon at the bottom, the following screen appears. Clicking on Challenges shows a message that achievements must be viewed to issue a challenge. Clicking achievements results in a message that games must be connected (and from my friend's phone I know I have several apps that should appear).
Upon tapping friends, it does show me a list of suggested friends pulled from Facebook, but attempting to send a friend request results in the following screen. After accepting the error box, the "send" button for the request is grayed out and unavailable regardless of adding or deleting friends and/or an accompanying message.
In short, the Game Center is completely unresponsive for no discernible reason, and this problem began with no warning and is now long term. Though my iPhone is older (a 4s), my friend's is even older (a regular 4) and works fine.

I am having the very same problem on my iPad running ios 7. All is fine on my iPhone it opens no problem - this is running on ios 8. I wish they would fix it.

How to I contact Apple about a support issue with Game Center--itself, directly. I changed my Apple ID and now I cannot access my game center account that I had previously. It created a new one for me with my new apple ID instead of keeping the old one.

I want to submit an issue with Game Center--itself, directly. I had an account set up that I used to play online games. I changed my appleID and then I no longer could access my game center account. I, apparently, had a new game center account created for me (which is friends with my old account) and now I cannot access my original game center account.
If I can't get access to email apple directly (which seems ridiculously difficult to do), then someone please tell me how to FIX the issue.
Thank you

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

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.

Game Center Multiplayer issues

Please forgive me if I have posted this in the wrong forum.
I have an iPhone 4 and registered an account on Game Center - I have downloaded two games, Blast4 and Scalextric to play against friends via Game Center. However when I send out an invite it simply states 'Waiting' for the other player, whilst I know that this player has already accepted my request and is waiting for me to start the game.
I have tried to be invited to a game, however whilst the other person recieves my request to start a game, I don't get an invitation, and the other person who has invited me to a game has a message saying they are waiting for me to accept.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? It is a major disappointment of the phone, which I have so far loved. If anyone can provide me with some advice or let me know if they have had the same problem it would be good to hear from you,
Thanks,
Clayton

Hi Skacase22,
I have since been to the Apple store to ask for assistance and spoke to 3 members of staff, all of which have never heard of this problem. In actual fact, they all said they don't know many people who use Game Center. They had a play around, and suggested I ensure that both players on Wi-Fi, and that I have the latest software as well as the latest update of the games I have tried using.
I have done all this but still no luck - they suggested the only other thing to try would be to restore the phone to its original state. I will try that tomorrow, and let you know if this solves the problem.
It is a bit surprising at how little can be done, I was told that this was not a problem with the phone so there was not much they can do, it was more of an issue with Game Center, which is down to iTunes - and therefore there was nothing they can do. Has anyone got any advice on who I would contact to help with this problem?
If anyone has had this problem, or is able to offer any advice it would be much appreciated.
Thanks,

Issue with Game Center Accounts

I believe this was posted previously by richardgraham90, but i am having an issue with game center. It seems that i somehow have two active game center accounts under one apple ID. I have been using one ever since i got the itouch 4, and just a few weeks ago game center asked me to create another account? im not sure why, but now whenever i open games it asks me to log on to game center, as if my previous game center account isnt working. my old account had all of my freinds and achievements on it, and this new account has nothing. i was just wondering if it was possible to delete this "secondary" account that was somehow created on my apple id. this is a very annoying glitch and game center will not stay signed in to my previous account. if anyone has any ideas or fixes regarding this, that would be extremely helpful. thanks

My account @ game center was working perfectly until suddenly i noticed a pop-up message kept appearing as i play "Hay Day" which says cannot connect to Game Center. As i log in to GC this msg appears: "Could not connect to game center service."

Can anyone help me? Thanks...

PS. If anyone knows how to work Facetime & iMessenger on a jailbroken iOS 5.0.1 (9A405) openline using gevey sim technology, it would also be a big help as I abandoned the thought of how to make it work...
Please try to make it as un-techie friendly as possible
Thanks

If still having issues...
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Has any of this been tried?

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 Game Center issue

I have a version of Game Center that doesn't have "requests" tab at bottom toolbar even though I've updated to latest iOS version. And it "won't allow me to play multilayer on (my) device." Any suggestions. Is it a setting I need to change somewhere? Help

TS1398 Game Center connection issue

I am unable to connect to the Game Center servers after updating to Mountain Lion. Anyone else having the same issues?

I found a video of another user for you on youtube : http://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_872211&feature=iv&src_vid= oBFeX3UbCZ4&v=eEVXZS_q6i8#t=22s.
He put the file I just talked about in my previous post on his desktop and the connection worked again. It's just a backup of the file in case of a problem but you can delete it safely if you haven't change its content yet.

HT4314 Is there a system-wide issue with the Game Center. I cannot get past the spinning dots/loading part, my game says I'm not signed in, and I am connected to the Internet.

I have been using the Game Center to track my wins for some time (months). Suddenly, my game tells me I'm not signed in and I cannot get the Game Center to open.

I have two yahoo accounts and I know as they 'improved' their servers I had periodic outages. It'd work fine on my webmail on my computer, webmail on the iPad, but not via the mail app. And it was stuff on their end. It may be a case of wait and see and you may need to eventually remove/readd the account on your iPhone.
When the issue is on their end, unfortunately there's not much for users to do beyond wait it out or find work arounds.
