How do I delete Game Center from iPad?

How do I remove an application from my iPad? Let me explain. I know you hold your finger (or stylus) on the application and after a while all applications wiggle and if you push a circle that appears with an X on the top left of the application, and the application vanishes. My problem is that this does not always happen. Sometimes the circle with the X does not appear.
Let me explain further. I did the software upgrade today to version 4.2.1 and an icon appeared with all my other applications called "Game Center". I have explored the contents of that icon and I am not interested in it at all. I hate to have an icon cluttering my iPad, particularly if it is one I did not create by making a mistake. When I hold my finger to "Game Center", eventually applications wiggle and the circle with the X appears in all of them except in the one I want to remove, "Game Center".
I will be very grateful if someone tells me how to remove "Game Center". Thanks in advance.

Yes, you explained how to create a folder, but your explanation did not work for me. Perhaps 'Game Center' is not an application? Let me explain.
I never use iPod, and now I have Game Center, which I don't use. After you posted your suggestion, I pressed 'Game Center', waited until all the applications wiggled, and then I dragged 'Game Center' to 'iPod'. No folder was created. What happened was that the iPod application decided to avoid the Game Center application and no matter how insistent I was, they did not merge or create a folder.
I guess I just have to live with those applications -if they are called applications as I'm not sure of this since they don't behave as the majority of applications- Apple insists I exhibit in the iPad. I hope we will not gather one of the unwanted ones in every software update.
Thanks again for your reply and your patience.

  • How do you stop game center from loading, How do you stop game center from loading

    iPhone 4 _ iOS7
    I have never used Game Center. However, most times when I open a solitaire game that I purchased on iTunes having 0 to do with Game Center, Game Center (obnoxiously) loads and asks that I join or login or whatever. Altough I hit cancel, that is not sufficient. I have found no means in Tools to disable Game Center.
    Is there no way to stop Game Center from loading??? (behavior same in both OS 6 & 7)

    The me.com website is not designed for or intended to be accessed by iOS devices. Apple provides support in iOS or seperate Apps for accessing all aspects of MobileMe except for the Accounts section.
    Use MobielMe as intended and you'll have no problems.
    See: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1673
    Even if you use a different browser to get access to me.com on iOS, you'll find most of it is unusable.
    Other websites that present you with the mobile version have been programmed to do so by their developers. They specifically look for users accessing from 'mobile' devices and switch to the mobile site. Many such sites provide a link to go back to the 'full' site, if not, there's not a lot you can do except use a browser that can pretend not to be a mobile browser.

  • How do you delete game center without deleting the data from the games?

    Our family has 4 apple products all assigned to one apple id.  When my son set up his game center account it link all of your games together.  We have tried many times to delete it without any luck.  Is there any way to delete in with out wiping out his data and purchases from the games?

    Game center can not be deleted.  Move it to a folder for unused apps.

  • How can I transfer game data from IPad under one Apple ID to IPhone under another?

    I have been playing Jetpack Joyride for nearly a year on my father's IPad 2 with his Apple ID. Now I have an IPhone 5, which is working under my Apple ID, and I don't want to start all over again. Is there any way to transfer my progress?
    P.S. I tried using Game Center, and it oly syncs highscores and achievements, not my in-game money and completed missions.

    Unfortunately there's no way to do this unless the game has a username and password that you sign in within the game format. If Apple allowed users to use different apple IDs and get the same purchase how would they ever make money?
    Each purchase made on apps is associated with the Apple ID it was purchased under... they cant' be transferred or used by another Apple ID.

  • How can I stop Game Center from opening every time I finish a game?

    I despise Game Center and don't want to use it.  Every time I finish a game of Real Solitaire, Game Center opens and bothers me about not logging in.  This is on an iPad 4/128gb.  I never had this problem until I got the new iPad.  Is there any help, or am I simply going to have to tolerate this unwelcome, unwanted intrusion?

    You can also use the settings in Image Capture to set which devices open/not open specific Applications.
    Open Image Capture from the Application folder and connect the camera or iphone. Once it is detected, you will be presented with an application opening list at the bottom left corner where you can select what happens when that device is connected including iPhoto, iTunes or none. Each device can be configured differently.
    You may also have to go into the FinePix settings and see if there is a setting in that Application to turn off it automatically loading every time the camera is connected.
    Hope this helps

  • How can you delete iOS 8 from iPad, it is using too much memory

    how can i delete ios8 from my iPad? since i downloaded it my iPad is slow, pages sometimes get caught in endless loop, and is taking up all of my storage

    If you haven't installed it yet, settings, general, usage, populate the whole list and you should be able to remove the installer. (last I read you could delete it, with iOS7 the installer was not able to be deleted)
    If you've already installed it, Apple does not support downgrading. If you'd like to go into specific issues, maybe people here can suggest some fixes or work arounds.

    How do I delete photo albums or photos in photo albums from IPad 2? 

    If the photos that you want to delete are in the Camera Roll, just tap on the photo that you want to delete, then tap the trash can in the upper right hand corner and select delete. If you are in the thumbnail view, tap on the curved arrow icon in the upper right corner and then tap on the photo or photos that you want to delete, then tap on delete in the upper left part of the screen.
    If the photos that you want to delete are on the iPad from a previous sync with iTunes, you have to sync to iTunes to delete them. Deselect the photos in iTunes while your iPad is connected and then sync and the photos will be removed from the device

  • How do i delete cloud songs from ipad on my iphone 4

    how do i delete songs on my iphone 4 they have a cloud next to them i tryed pluging it into i tunes they dont show up no matter how many times i sync. i just want them gone

    From your iPod, go to
    Settings -> Music -> Show All Music
    Switch the Show All Music switch off
    so that only the music you've downloaded onto your device will be shown.
    Note :
    Music that has played from purchased will be downloaded.
    Settings > general > usage > music and swipe to delete all music from your iPhone 4. After that it should no longer show up when "show all" is turned off.
    Thx

  • How do I delete Game Center Data on a mac?

  • How do I stop Game Center from logging me in EVERY TIME I open a game app?

    And who is using my username and password to log me in? I believe I have read all of the term, policies, and agreements and Apple makes no claim? I open an app associated with Game Center and I get a popup "welcoming me back." I open the Game Center app and log out. I remove both Game Center and associated app and then open the same or any other app associated with Game Center and I'm logged right back into Game Center "without my consent." I say without my consent because nowhere does it state that I relinquish my rights to my username and password giving rights to Apple to use as it deems appropriate. Someone please help me on this...it is driving nuts!

    Unfortunately I am not given that option. Apparently (when I signed up for it like 2 years ago because Real Racing app would not remember me if I did not register) I agreed to the terms when I first signed up and it just redirects me to the Apple Support Site front page. This is just ridiculous! And the funny this is that games run so much better when Game Center is disabled and everything an app associated with Game Center Crashed it was because of Game Center.
