Games Center settings problem

Hi, I can't get into the settings in the Games Center to change any details, it just hangs for a bit then says "saved" and goes back to the main screen, any suggestions?  iPhone4
Many Thanks

Here's a little demo for you:
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.Timer;
class Junk{
  Junk(){
    JFrame f = new JFrame("Color Test 1.0");
    f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    myPanel p = new myPanel();
    f.add(p);
    f.pack();
    f.setVisible(true);
  public static void main(String[] args){
    new Junk();
  class myPanel extends JPanel implements ActionListener{
    BufferedImage bi;
    Color[] c = {Color.BLACK, Color.BLUE, Color.CYAN,
                 Color.DARK_GRAY, Color.GRAY, Color.GREEN,
                 Color.LIGHT_GRAY, Color.MAGENTA, Color.ORANGE,
                 Color.PINK, Color.RED, Color.WHITE,
                 Color.YELLOW};
    Graphics biG;
    int myDelay; //controls period of change for timer
    int iColor;
    Timer t;
    public myPanel(){
      myDelay = 500;
      t = new Timer(myDelay, this);
      iColor = 1; //start other than Black
      setPreferredSize(new Dimension(300, 300));
      bi = new BufferedImage(300, 300, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
      biG = bi.getGraphics();
      t.start();
    public void paintComponent(Graphics g){
      g.drawImage(bi, 0, 0, this);
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
      if(iColor>(c.length - 1)) iColor = 0;
      biG.setColor(c[iColor]);
      biG.fillRect(50,50,200,200);
      repaint();
      iColor++;
}Play with myDelay and try it on various speed machines, I think you'll see it's the same on each.

  • 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.

  • Game center ios7 problems (achievements out of sync)

    There are many serious bugs in Game Center for iOS7.  None of the deficiencies of GC on iOS6 were addressed, and new crashes, hangs, and other bugs were added.  It's as if Apple couldn't care less that games are the single biggest category of apps selling all those iPads and other iOS devices.  But for this post, I will focus on one issue in particular.
    Game Center reports inconsistent achievements across my many iOS + Mac devices.  When I win an achievement once, I expect and demand that GC actually credit me for it permanently.  In many instances, the achievement shows in GC on the device where I won the achievement, but it does not show on GC on any other device or computer.  Note that I'm NOT talking about viewing achievements within a given application, I'm just talking about GC itself.  This is NOT a problem of an individual game, it is a problem with the GC architecture.  When I see a GC notification pop up that I've won an achievement, I expect that achievement to actually show in GC, both on the current device, and on every other device.
    This is not a problem with replication lag.  I've tried waiting for days to see achievements appear across devices -- they don't.  I've tried force quitting GC and every game on the system, then re-launching GC, only to see exactly what I saw before -- different scores on different devices.
    There are even inconsistencies on a single device.  Different screens within GC show different scores.  Some of these problems resolve themselves over time, as if different parts of the GC app rely on different caches, and those caches refresh on different schedules.  I can forgive some replication lag, provided everything eventually replicates everywhere.  But sometimes, the discrepancies never go away, and GC permanently reports results that don't make sense.  Looking on the achievements page for a single game, I often a set of achievements and a total achievement score which just plain don't match, days after having won the achievements in question.
    This is also not caused by offline achievements.  GC is so abysmally poor at handling offline achievements that it deserves its own post, and I won't go into the details further here, other than to say that I no longer play GC games while offline.  My device of choice is a wifi iPad (the last model with the large cable connector, updated to run iOS 7.0.2), and I always make sure I'm connected to wifi before playing any GC games.  And by making sure I'm connected to wifi, I mean positively confirming that I can reach the web and check email before launching my game.  Despite ensuring that I'm always online when I play, achievements still do not replicate.
    This is also not caused by game bugs.  Apple made a terrible design decision to not treat achievements like gold -- or even to treat them as important as email.  Email is never lost.  Achievements are frequently dropped.  A game should not need to be implemented to re-register achievements, even if they were won offline.  In any case, the point is, this bug has nothing to do with any individual game.  I can fire up multiple iOS + Mac devices and see different scores within the GC apps.
    My question is, how do I fix this?  I can find no way to force game center to resync with the master achievements database in the cloud.  I can't even find a way to send feedback directly to the GC team, or open a support topic directly about GC.  (I would be extremely surprised if Garage Band were more popular than Game Center.  Yet Garage Band has a dedicated support section, whereas the word "game" doesn't even appear anywhere on Apple's support communities topic list.)
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Oh my god.
    I have the same issue and im about to leave IOS and go Android.
    Im a huge gamer on the iPhone and got 19k+ achivement.
    When IOS 7 came the GC have not been working correctly ever sence.
    I have a huge OCD with achievements and need the achievements synced with GC.
    For every 7.0.X update im SURE there will be a fix for this but nothing.
    I am very dissapointed.

  • Game center multiple problems

And I don't exactly enjoy repeating my achievements on all three devices
    Another issue is in a few games I had achieved few achievement before setting up gamecenter account but now only achievements I have got after setting up the account are seen!

Any help would be appreciated! thanks

  • HT4314 Is there a way to change the game center settings?

    My game center isnt showing a requests tab, is there anyway to add it?

    Hi gaxoxo,
    The Game Center "Requests" tab may be hidden if you have Restrictions setup on your iPhone 4S. Specifically, there is a restriction for "Adding Friends".
    iOS: Understanding Restrictions (Parental Controls)

    You can choose to restrict features within Game Center:

  • Game Center Password problem

    For some reason when I did an update I was logged out of my Game Center account. When I try to log in again it won't accept my password. I don't want to create a new account because I will lose all of my saved data. I have tried to retrieve my password, but it won't accept my question prompts either. Is there any way to reset or recover the account or password?

    Reset did not help for me.
    When i try to request reset by email or answer security questions, i'm prompted for a birthdate, i enter it and am told "The authentication information provided does not match our records. Please verify your personal information and try again." i KNOW it was entered correctly on account and on my many many attempts to recover the information.

  • Can't change my Game Center account settings

    After a few tries I noticed my friend never receive my GameCenter invites.
    So I wanted to check my Game Center settings but I have problem, nothing can be change.
    I don't have any 'done' button on the top right corner, the only button I have is 'cancel' on top left.
    When I hit 'modify the account apple Id' nothing happen except the control scrolls up.
    I waited for iOS 5 to see if the problem was still there, unfortunately it is :(
    I have an iPad 2.
    Anyone experienced this issue or have an idea on hos to fix it ?
    Thanks a lot

    I finally found a workaround
    See https://discussions.apple.com/message/17099906
    I suppose you are french like me, so basically, switch your system to english in Settings, configure Game Center, and switch your system back to French.

  • I have multiple devices, an iPhone and an iPad, and would like to have the same Game Center setting on each device. I have game I have invested a lot of time into, and if I have to replace my iPad Id like to make sure the settings transfer.

    To piggy back on my question, I would also like my Game Center settings to be the same on my iPad and iPhone so I can access the same game. Right now they are different, although the sign on and password to both are identical. Thanks in advance....

  • Multiple game center accounts - ios 7.0.4

    I have an iPad 2 with ios 7.0.4 and my wife has the same.
    We enjoy playing a few of the same game together and would like to be friends in the games.
    When we first set up her iPad, we just used my apple id for the setup.
    I am now unsure how to decouple her ipad from my ipad while still keeping one Apple ID for purchases.
    In particular, i ran into the following problem.
    I created a new Apple ID for my wife to use to login to game center. It allowed her to login and specify a new nickname. However, when i went back to my ipad, her nickname showed up in my game center. When i looked closer, this is what i saw
    My iPad: game center settings showed my Apple ID email but showed my wife's nickname for game center
    Wife's iPad: game center settings showed wife's new Apple ID email and showed her new nickname for game center, but had the points for my game center profile
    How do we setup her iPad to use her Apple ID for game center but use the primary Apple ID for purchases?

    I have a red "1" showing I have a request, how do I accept it? I have my list of friends, I scroll down and see the list of recommendations (which doesn't tell me they are playing my game), but I don't see where to accept the request sent to me.

    I cannot reinstall GC because it's a native iOS app.  I've tried closing the app itself, along with the Settings app and restarting my iPhone several times, no dice.
    Any advice?

    Thanks very much to the other victims of this defect in iOS for sharing the fix which worked for me too.
    But how absolutely rediculous and pathetic that we should have to reset all setting and then go back and re-enter all preferences to fix this problem. This is far short of the quality expected form Apple.
    Flaws of this kind are exactly what causes corporations to fall from the top of their fields, and if not corrected to become obsolete. Are we seeing a glimse of things to come here?

  • 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:

  • Two Game Center Accounts on One Apple ID

    Hello,
    From the looks of things I'm the only one experiencing this issue and it's really starting to bug me out unfortunately. There's an APP that I use on my spare time. When I first installed the app it was registered under my Apple ID and Nickname "San Huevon". For some reason I got bored of it and eventually a few days ago I got hooked on the urge again. Only this time when I went back in it asked me to load my profile or create a new one, so I created a new Nickname "SanHuevon" technically speaking but still registered and logged in through my original Apple ID. After a few days of playing I loaded the app and accidentally clicked on "load profile" it loaded my old profile and now I've lost all in-app purchases that I had purchased in my second profile. I've tried changing my Nickname back to the second one which was "SanHuevon" without the space and it says it's already taken. I've been unsuccessful at this, whenever I contact Apple Support it's as if I'm talking to another country?
    If anyone has gone through this and can shed some light I would greatly appreciate it, although I'm sure I'm just out of luck on this one.
    Thank you all in advance for taking the time to read this.
