How do I disable game center in macbook pro

A couple of  apps I downloaded, a casino slot, want the game center to become involved.  I do not want to have anything to do with the game center.
Other games e.g. solitaire card games do not cause the game center to pop up.  How do I disable this?

Thanks, I tried that and it did not work.  It never showed up in the login items. 
The strange thing is that went the game comes up the game center slash opens but you cannot
enter anything into the boxes including 'cancel'.  There must be a bug somewhere.  I will cancel that game and get another and try it.

  • HT4314 How do I disable game center's "welcome back" popup messages or disable game center entirely?

    Iphone 5, iOS 7.0.4
    Ok, this seems obvious but how do I get rid of this welcome back popup? Every time I open a game this redundant "welcome back!" message pops up taking up a good quarter of the screen and frequently causing me to die. I can't tell you how many times I've opened a game like Sonic the Hedgehog 2, only to die immediately because I can't see my character while he's covered by a big "welcome back" message. Of course, when that's the last life left and I end up having to restart the whole level, you can see how it might be way more frustrating than it's worth.
    So, I've excluded game center from the notification center stuff, I've set it to "no notifications" (which shouldn't matter since it's excluded) and still it pops up.
    I signed out of game center too because i'd rather enjoy my games than be frustrated and able to share the scores.  Now it just has a pop up at the beginning of every game asking me to sign in, which is just aggrivating in a different way, plus now I I don't have the ability to use the game center. I read here that once signed out there is a button to disable game center, but that doesn't seem to appear in iOS 7. Is there a way to disable it without jailbreaking my phone?
    Thanks!

    May not be Game Center but something in Solitaire...whcih Solitaire is this, there are so many?
    I have Real Solitaire, ver 2.5.1 and it has in the window when you win that you are not signed in to Game Center but never says anything else about Game Center.

  • How do I disable game center?!?!?

    Other threads seem to indicate that it's possible to disable game center by way of settings > general > restrictions but if that ever existed it's gone now.  Any thoughts?
    On that subect I have a simple basic solitaire game (Real Solitaire) that I'd like to play but I can't because the game center sign in pops up and I can't get past it.  The developer's web site is down...
    I do realize this is for help and not complaints so I will not comment on my feelings about being forced to deal witn something I will never, ever use

  • How do I disable AirPlay on my Macbook Pro

    I don't understand how to disable AirPlay on my macbook pro. It keeps asking for a password...In which i never set! Now my garageband is soundless and a pop up keeps coming on my screen asking for the password.

    You had to have set up a password when the machine was first purchased. Registration will not let you get past it when you boot up the first time. You'll have to reboot holding down the Command and R keys at the same time, select Recovery Partition, and in the menus at the top there should be an option to reset password.
    More about recovery partitions is at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

  • How do I disable Game Center in ios7?

    Hi there.  I know this question has recently been asked, but I can't seem to find a solution to our particular problem.  My 8-year daughter wanted to play Early Bird HD on my iPad and when she started the game, the ios7 game center login screen appeared, with no visible option to cancel out of it.  I refused to let her sign on to Game Center, because there's no reason for my 8-year old to be part of that community.  Has anyone out there encountered the same issue since downloading ios7 and does anyone know how to prevent that screen from appearing?  Without a way to disable it/cancel out of it, my kids can't play these games anymore. 
    Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks so much in advance!

    fYou don't. Apple seems to consider Game Center participation mandatory and there is no way to disable it.
    The most you can do is use an ID that's not your real Apple ID. I use a secondary ID for my Game Center because I didn't like the privacy violation either. Pick a nick name, pick an e-mail. If you don't have an 'extra' one, sign up for a hotmail or something and use that.
    In the settings you can disable multiplayer games and invites, so that will help a bit.

  • How do I disable Game Center prompts in iOS 8.1?

    Every time I go to open a game, Game centre loads up and it prompts me to sign up for an account.  I don't want one!  Any idea how to disable this?
    Thanks.

    Game Center stops asking after you've rejected the invitation about three times (per game).

  • 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...

  • How can I disable Game Center from iPad

    2 problems:  I can't log into Game Center. It doesn't recognize my Apple ID or password (after resetting the password) . 
    I Want to stop Game Center from popping up every time I play a game.
    suggestions?

    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 I disable iMessage on my MacBook pro?

    I have purchased a MacBook Pro for Christmas and whilst viewing different applications I couldn't close the message application unless I typed in my Apple id password. Now, I am recieving iMessages at not only my iPhone and iPod but my mac too. How can i disable this on my mac??? 

    I just figured this out, yay! You need to be on your laptop to do this. Open the iMessage app, then look up at the top left of the screen on your laptop and it should be the apple icon, "messages", File, Edit, View, History, etc. Click on "Messages", then click on "Preferences", then click on the accounts in the box on the left - because a pop-up will open after you click on "Preferences". I was unable to remove the accounts, but I was able to uncheck all the boxes and disable the accounts. Voila! Mission accomplished.

  • Can't log into Game Center on Macbook Pro

    I recently updated my computer to Mountain Lion. So today i tried to log into my Game Center account and its saying that its not the right information. Tried loging in on my iPod and it worked perfectly! I used the same id and password i used to log onto here.
    I already tried:
    - opening the chess application from the Launchpad and signing into Game Center from there.
    - changing my password
    - turning my wi-fi off and then back on.
    PLEASE HELP !
    by the way, you can't see my e-mail but its there !

    Update:
    We logged in to the Admin account, changed the password on my user account, which has admin priveledges, and we still can't log in.
    This happened in Snow Leopard before we upgraded it to Lion, so I don't think that's the cause.
    We tried creating a new user account and it's happening on that account too. Both the IT guy and I are baffled. What could possibly cause OSX to do this to user accounts?
    I joked and wondered if we should test the keyboard itself.

  • How do I disable auto-caps on MacBook Pro 10.6.6

    *I hate autocaps!* When I want a cap, I'll hit the shift key.
    Autocaps runs system wide on my MacBookPro5,4. It's a nightmare for passwords. I never know when it's giving me a cap or not. Also, in things like the terminal it will cap a command that can't be cap'd, like "ftp - Open."
    If I decide to edit a sentence I get "This."
    Autocaps causes me so many more keystrokes than it would ever save!
    I just don't want it and I've searched high and low and there is no preference or control for it anywhere.
    Also, I have friends with MacBooks who don't see this behavior on their machine!

    I searched as well and found nothing. Are you sure you don't have any third-party software installed that might explain that behavior? Check the "Login Items" list of the Accounts panel of System Preferences.

  • How can i install windows games in my macbook pro

    I m a game lover but since i've macbook pro,i haven't played any game on my macbook...so guys please tell me how can i install windows games to my macbook pro.

    As eww said, that computer isn't specifically made for gaming. To get advanced graphics in a game, your computer needs what is called a "discrete" graphics processor, or GPU. This means a seperate chip that processes graphics. In Apple laptops, these are only found in the 15" and 17" MacBook Pro. It is not common to find these in laptops in general that are not expensive and high-end. What you have in yours is an "on-board" or "integrated" GPU. This means that graphics processing is done by a small portion of your main processor (the Intel i5 board). This takes away a portion of primary prossessing and dedicates it to graphics. This works perfectly find in most scenarios, but video rendering, gaming, and 3-D graphics tend to suffer. Most high-end, modern games require discrete GPUs to run at full quality these days.
    As far as running Windows 7 and Mac OS both, yes you absolutely can. If you install Windows 7 via Bootcamp (this would require you to have a Windows 7 CD), when you turn on your computer it will default to opening up in Mac OS. But if you hold down the Option key (bottom of the keyboard next to the Command button) while the computer is booting up, it will ask you if you want to open Windows or Mac OS.
