How can I restore my original game center account to my iPhone after an update?

I just updated my phone to the latest ios thing. It deleted everything off of my phone, so it was brand new. Like, it could have just come out of the box. I finally got my contacts and music back, but 1. none of my apps will load 2. my gamecenter account won't let me in. I tried logging in with my old username and password, but it wants an apple account and it won't work for mine. How do I restore my progress in games, as well as the apps? Can I just restore my phone to the way it was before the update?

  • My two iPads share an Apple ID.  How can I create a separate Game Center account so they can play each other?

    My two iPads share an Apple ID.  How can I create a separate Game Center account so they can play each other?

    1. This is a year old post.  Things have changed, the answer is no longer accurate due to how the OS functions now.
    2.  You can't have a second Gamecenter account tied to the same Apple ID, because the Apple ID is the game center account.  They are not separate things.
    3. The OP said they had 2 iPads, which means they can use a different Apple ID for Gamecenter on the second iPad.
    4. You can still creare Apple ID's specifically for game center without changing them for the other services on the other devices.

    I have the same issue.  Young children who cannot get Apple ID's but we all want separate Gamecenter accounts.
    You need to get Apple ID's for them.  They aren't getting them, you are. You can manage these new ID{s yourself. You can even make sure they have no credit card and are not associated with any other service on the device. So essentially they are Apple ID's for GameCente only.

  • How can I retrieve a forgotten Game Center account?

    I have a Clash of Clans account and I'm playing it for about 2 years. It was level 97 and it's currently in town hall 9. I'm afraid that I will lost my game if my phone gets broken. That's why I want my account to be linked to a different device, but I can't do it because it's asking me to log in first to my Game Center account. How can I retrieve my Game Center account? I just changed my Apple I.D. when Apple updated it's IOS to IOS 8, because it required me to do so. But when I wanted to log in my Game Center account it asks me to log in in my game, but it kept on saying that my game is already attached in another Game Center account. What am I suppose to do? Please help me. I don't want to lost my game that I played for years now.

    Howdy kanereyes,
    In order to use the Game Center settings and progress from that game, you will need to log in to the Game Center account you have been using with it. You can change Game Center accounts on any device using the steps in this article -
    Using Game Center on your Mac or iOS device - Apple Support
    Specifically -
    Sign in to Game Center
    Open Game Center and sign in using your Apple ID. If you don't have an Apple ID, select Create New Apple ID. If you need to sign in with a different Apple ID, follow these steps:
    iOS: Go to Settings and tap Game Center > Apple ID > Sign Out. 
    OS X: Go to the Me tab and click Account > Sign Out. 
    When you sign in with a different Apple ID, you'll see different scores, achievements, and friends.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • HT1326 How to change to a different Game Center account

    How to Change to a different Game Center account

    It will only effect GameCenter. It will not effect other apps and things on the iPod.
    You can change the account you are signed into by:
    iOS: Tap Settings > Game Center.
    OS X: Click the Me tab in the Game Center app and click on your Account.
    Note: Please note each Apple ID has its own associated scores, achievements, and friends.

    Firefox didn't sync my bookmark to my account???? WTF. i reinstall my windows but i thought ff synced my bookmarks. .. how can i restore my bookmark from my account?????

    Sorry. Sync isn't really intended as a backup medium as you were trying to use it for. It isn't meant to be a storage "cloud". It's purpose is to keep Firefox bookmarks synchronized across multiple Firefox installations or Profiles - so all your bookmarks are the same on each device / Profile.

  • How do i make a new game center account

    how do i make a new game center account

    If you are logged into your old game center account on your device, follow these steps:
    1.) go to settings
    2.) scroll all the way down until you see the game center tab and click on it
    3.) you should see an option to change your profile name; click inside the box
    4.) type in your desired profile name and then it should either give you an option to save or if you exit out it should save by itself. To check, just repeat the steps up until #3 but don't click the box. You should see your new game center name.
         Hope I helped!

  • How can I sync my notes from the account "on my iPhone"

    how can I sync my notes from the account "on my iPhone" using Mobile me

    The most straightforward way (assuming your iPhone 3GS is running iOS 6, which it should be) is to use iCloud to house your contacts.
    Then it would be trivial to have your contacts synced and maintained between your MacBook Pro and your iPhone.
    P.S.:  Sorry, I said contacts but meant notes.  iCloud would work for both.

  • How can you retrieve a forgotten game center password?

    I need help! My 8-year-old son set-up his own separate account/nickname for Game Center. Now he can't recall his password. Because he is so young, his account  had to be piggy-backed with an adult's account. How can I retrieve his password? He's very upset at the prospect of having to start all hs games over.
    He had a nickname, too.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussion Forums! This is your first question, right?
    Game Center isn't needed for any of your son's games to work. I don't think a 8 year old needs leaderboards or achievements. You can play without GC, but you can also try this approach by Cosmic Ray. Read the full discussion with the link below.
    Hello everyone. I was having the exact same problem. Forgot my password and was unable to sign back into my Game Center account. I just figured out how to get back on, using the same Apple ID.
    On Game Center sign in screen, just click "Create New Account." I entered the exact same email that I had used before, and same personal information. It alerted me that the email address was already in the system and if I wanted to use this again. I clicked "yes." After clicking the "Agree" button, my previous Apple ID was active again and I was able to sign in.
    Hope this helps. Good luck!
