HT4314 How do I change the Game Center login name...I've has issues with getting GC to align my iPad game to the iPhone correctly.

I have been playing a game on the iPad (called D.S.F) & then wanted to link it to my iPhone with Game Center.
The problem is when it tried doing it...It asked me to choose a game name on the iPhone and I used the one I was using on the iPad but it didn't like as it said the name was taken.
So I set another name up and then thinking I could simply change the required name in DSF game settings to align the game but instead the game fully reset itself and I lost the existing game levels I was on the iPad.
After uninstalling the game on both devices & reloading them a few times, I established that when I turned off Game Center and reinstalled the game on the iPad then I got the game reloaded picking up from where I was initially.
The short of this blurb is that somehow I need to change the Game Center name for the game I'm playing so it links correctly and I'm not sure how to do that.
It's the name in Game Center that's linked to the iPhone new game that is the problem and it's the one I need to correct.
Any advice?

Go to start menu
Type REGEDIT into the search
Select find under the edit tab
Type the exact name you wish to correct
correct every entry by clicking on the entry> and then clicking edit>select modify>then correct only the portion of the name you wish to correct> then click ok> go back to edit and click find next> repeat the process for each entry in the registry until the screen says finished>restart windows and plug in your ipad. ENJOY

    You can create up to 3 alias addresses but you have to do this on icloud.com from your computer browser.  This article explains how: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.  Also, incoming email to an alias address will go to your current iCloud inbox so it really isn't a separate account; just a different email address for the same account. 
    Each iCloud account only has a single iCloud email account.  If you really want to set up another, you would need to add a secondary iCloud account by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, then entering a different Apple ID to create the account.  You can then turn on Mail to create the new account.  Mail in secondary accounts, however, is fetch email, not push (which is only supported in the primary account).

  • How much costs change the iphone 5 retina screen?

    how much costs change the iphone 5 retina screen? i'd need know it, my retina screen is broken

    Apple reportedly now will replace the screen in an iPhone 5 for US $149. Availabllity of repair services may vary by country, and I'm not sure if other models of iPhone also can be repaired, so call Apple Support or visit an Apple Store and ask for information. For other problems Apple at this time does not at this time repair iPhones, but will replace the entire iPhone for a flat fee. If you have AppleCare+ coverage, the cost will low; in the US it's $49. If you do not have AppleCare+ on your iPhone, see the Service Pricing section here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/service/faq/
    There are independent iPhone repair services that may be able to do the repair for less than Apple's out-of-warranty charge. Do a web search for "iPhone repair". Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPhone serviced by an unauthorized shop, all further warranty and support from Apple will be voided.
    Regards.

  • I merged my Apple ID accounts on my iPhone and iPod...how can I change the iPhone Apple ID account so that the iPod and iPhone has there own

    I merged my Apple ID accounts on my iPhone and iPod...how can I change the iPhone Apple ID account so that the iPod and iPhone has there own?

    I think I understand what you mean. You were asked if you wanted to merge the contacts with your iCloud account. Contacts take up very little room and are probably not the reason that your iCloud is full. If you're now backing up two devices to iCloud rather than one, that will indeed take up more room.
    You cannot undo the contact merge. You can go to Settings>iCloud on either device and see what categories of stuff you're backing up and make selections. You can also purchase more iCloud space there.

    I have two ipods in my house that were set up under the same email.  I have since assigned two different emails.  How can I change the game center account so that is not shared by both ipods because it is for two different users and they are not happy?

    By "game center account", do you mean Apple ID?
    If so, you can change it.
    1. Tap settings and navigate to iTunes and App Stores
    2. Tap "Apple ID" and then tap "Sign Out"
    3. Log in with a different ID.

  • HT5312 How do you change the email address used to send security answers?

    How do you change the email used to send the security answers you have forgotten? I have changed the alternative email adress in Name, ID and Email Addresses but this does not change the email address in the Password and Security section.

    Jus what do you want to accomplish? The Apple ID email address is used for variosu thing onthe iPod like:
    - For purchasing media. Srrings.iTunes and App stores. Sing out and sign into anoterh account
    - Settings>iCLoudl for iCloud account
    - Settings>FaceRome for Apple ID and where You can Be Reached At email address
    - Settings>Messages for Send And Receive email address.
    - Maybe for Game Center
