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

Hello there, Laddus.
The Knowledge Base article you were referred to us from actually has the steps you're looking for to troubleshoot your issue.
Using Game Center
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4314
Along with troubleshooting by logging out and back into Game Center, as it recommends, the following "Additional Information" might prove helpful:
If you are having difficulty logging in to Game Center or staying connected
Verify that you are connected to the Internet.
If you are unable to create or sign in to your Game Center account from within a game, try creating or signing in to your account using the Game Center app.
Try signing out of your Game Center account, then sign back in. If you can't sign in to your Game Center account with an Apple ID, try resetting your password or using another email address. To manage your Apple ID account, go to My Apple ID.
When using a Wi-Fi connection, verify that your Wi-Fi router is configured for Game Center.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

  • HT4314 Game Center and Apple ID issues...help!

    Hello.  My son has 'lost' his Dragonvale game and is completely distraught.  I have three kids that all have their own game center accounts, but I
    don't know how to get back into his.  My apply id goes to one of the other kids accounts.  I know his gamecenter nickname and gamecenter password, but I
    don't know how to access with this info.  I know his game progress is still out there because he is 'friends' with the other kids and they can see his game.
    How can I get him signed back in?
    Thanks for your help!

    HI Friend,
    Game Center shares some information of your game, like the scores. But I believe Game Center cannot save the game progress. If the Dragonvale app has been deleted before, all game progress has gone.

  • 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.

  • Game Center issues on iPhone 4 - Won't connect/log-in

    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."
    If i try to make a new account this msg appears: "Game center account services are currently unavailable. Please try again later."
    I've tried reading forums and yes i tried resetting my phone, triple checking date and time but still I can't fix this issue.
    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

    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    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 Game Center Not Working

    My game center stopped working about a month ago on my iphone 5! It won't load on games and if i open the game center app by itself, the only thing that happens is that it shows that it's loading but i cant do anything and it never loads! Anyone know what to do?

    Hello there Charlieizguirre,
    There could be a number of things causing the issue, so here are a couple resources to try and resolve your issue.
    First this article about troubleshooting the iPhone.
    http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/phone/#section_1
    Second, you may want to sign out of, then back into the iTunes and App stores. This article named iOS: Changing the signed-in iTunes Store Apple ID account found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1311
    "Changing your Apple ID account
    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores, then tap the Apple ID signed in.
    Sign out of the current Apple ID account and then sign in with another account"
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • HT4314 Game Center difference I-Pad to I-phone

    I tried to sign in to HayDay on my I-phone and now my I-phone shows level 1 and my I-Pad shows level 31.  My hubby sees me at level 1 on his I-pad.  Is there any way to fix this? I probably messed it up and lost my game.  My cloud storage is full so no recent backups on the i-pad.

    Sorry for this long thing, but hopefully it helps.
    Have you tried closing the application from the multitasking, then restarting your phone? This could solve the problem. Sometimes our apps just get exhausted and need to restart in the same way our phones need to.
    Have you tried logging out and logging back into game center? This can reset game centers information, which should reset friends as well. This can be found in settings>game center
    Have you verified your apple ID? Since you're on here I'd guess thats a yes but just in case you haven't go here: https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    Is your iOS up to date? sometimes servers get upgraded with the updates so older iOS versions might not be compatible in silly small ways (like Game Center not displaying friends).
    The other issue could be related to an error my own phone was having. Basically I couldn't add friends (whether I was sending the request or receiving it) or play multiplayer on game center. In that case the issue is in the iPhone/iPad/iPod software itself, which is something we'd all expect (at least I would) when a company creates a new operating from scratch. In this case what's happening is your game center is responding to the iOS restrictions found in your settings menu (even though restrictions are disabled).
    To fix this problem
    go to settings>general>restrictions
    Enable restrictions and choose a password you'll remember in 45 seconds
    Scroll to the bottom where you see the section labeled "Game Center"
    Now flip the switch on both Multiplayer Games and Adding Friends so both switches are green.
    Scroll back to the top and disable restrictions
    So let me know if you try any of that and let me know if any of it works.

  • HT4314 Game center will not recognize that I play any game center games.

    Game center will not recognize that I play any game center games. Also, my friends can interact with my game saves, but I cannot, because they do not appear in the "friends/neighbors" window when I play. What can I do to fix this?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

  • Game Center issues. Please help!

    I recently changed my Apple ID email to my gmail one because my other one got hacked. After switching it over everything ran smoothly except for my Game Center profile which would work occasionally, but now every time I try to sign out and sign back in my old Apple ID account keeps reappearing and I don't know why. Have shut down my iPad numerous times, but nothing has been working. Please help!

  • HT4314 Game Center Problem

    There isn't a catagory for this, but... Game Center games don't show up for me. None of them, not my friend's or mine. (Yes, I have used these games multiple times before) Help? (I wasn't sure where to ask this ^^)

    I am having the same problem and I also have an iPod 2nd Gen.  When I sign into Game Center it shows my profile, how many friends I have on game center, the number of games I have and my achievements.  When I tap on the games app all it says is "Find Game Center Games" it doesn't list any of my games yet when I am playing the games the little icon on top of the screen always says "Welcome back, geew66" whenever I open a game.  I finally got around to calling Apple to find out why this is happening.  They informed me it is a glitch on their end and I needed to plug my iPod into my computer and give them remote access to my iPod to fix it.  After doing this, the guy on the phone then informed me that in order to continue I needed to purchase extended warranty (or whatever it was that he called it) for $99 for 1 year and then he would be able to fix the glitch.  Needless to say, I didn't pay them the $99 and my Game Center doesn't work.  I just figure that if it is their glitch to begin with, why should we have to pay that kind of money to get it fixed.  Any suggestions on how to fix this problem without the huge expense would be greatly appreciated.  I am not at all impressed with the money hungry customer service I received from Apple.

  • HT4314 Game Center & Newsstand -- any way to get rid of these?

    With the latest version of iTunes, previously independent apps are now automatically going into Game Center and Newsstand (e.g., Word Warp, Economist).  I don't do interactive gaming and just want to access my news and games directly without the extra layer (and the intrusive Game Center message when I'm playing a game).

    Thanks.  How inelegant of Apple.  Hope they'll change this in an update to the IOS.  In the meantime, will move Game Center and Newsstand to the last page of my apps and read NYT online and not via the app.

  • HT4314 Game Center randomly signs me out

    On a regular basis, Game Center randomly signs me out. There are no interruptions and my Wi-Fi connectivity. It just randomly forgets that I am signed in and will not allow me access to the server while I'm trying to access my games. I'm constantly having to go back to the game Center app and re-sign in. Does anybody have any ideas about what I can do to fix this?
