I can't sign into game center and the app store?!

Hi
I have a mac book pro which is about 1year and 2months old and I recently purchased and dowloaded the new mac osx mountain lion using the app store. I followed every step and agreed to all the terms and conditions. However now i cannot access the app store and I cannot sign into game center.
Firstly, when i open the app store it says 'cannot connect to the app store' but somehow it can tell me that there is an update available. I have never had the problem before.
Secondly, with game center I can open it but when I type in my apple ID and click sign in nothing happens.
Help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi, bamboo64. 
Try closing all open applications in multitasking and power cycling the device.  Once this is done test the results.  If the issue persists, I have included a couple troubleshooting articles that I would recommend going through.

If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.

  • Can't log into Game Center and can't play certain games any more

    So I was trying to log into Game Center, and the system gives me this:
    To make things worst, now whenever I try to play Battle Supremacy, the app just keeps trying to switch to Game Center, which is already a dead end, and this is getting SOOOOOOO annoying. Help, please?

    Do a backup.
    Quit the application.
    In Finder hold down the option/alt key while selecting the Go menu item. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.gamecenter.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
    Restart the computer, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
    If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer ones.
    If you want to make your user library permanently visible, run the below command in Applications/Utilities/Terminal.
    chflags nohidden ~/Library/
    You will need to do that after any updates.

  • Can't sign into game center

    every time i try and sign into game center with my apple id, it says my apple id has not been used before, which is true. So i go through the steps to create a new game center account, but when i get to the part where you make your username there is nowhere to create a password, so i click next, but it says i must make a password. I try again, and the same thing happens.  PLEASE HELP ME!!!

  • TS1368 Can't get into updates section in the app store on my iPhone

    I can acess the app store on my iPhone but when I click on the updates tab it says "cannot connect to the iTunes store" which is weird because I can still download apps and search them.... Can anyone suggest how I can fix this?

    Try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if it then works.
    If that doesn't solve it then what has worked for some people is going into Settings > General > Date & Time and change the date to a few months (or maybe more) in the future and then re-trying

  • Ipod game preview and the app store

    i started browsing itunes, in particular the ipod games. i noticed that there is a "preview" button for some that plays a little QT video of the game play. i'm wondering if there will (in the future since i didn't see an upload option for it currently in itunes connect) be support for this in the app store...

    Yeah, a QTime vid would be nice. They can link to our own website if they're worried about the bandwidth.

  • I recently changed my Apple ID primary email address and now I can't sign into Game Center. It recognizes my new Apple ID but it keep trying to force me to create a new Game Center nickname when I want to keep my old one. How do I fix this?

    Just as the title says. How in the world do I fix this?

    To migrate your data to a new iCloud account go to Settings>iCloud and turn off all synced data (contacts, calendars, etc.), when prompted choose to keep the data on your phone.  After everything is set to off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Next, create the new iCloud account on your phone and turn on syncing for contacts, calendars, etc again.  If prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload your data to the new iCloud account.

  • Why can't I sign into Game Center on iPad Cocoa error 4097 appears

    Why can't I sign into Game Center on iPad Cocoa error 4097 appears

    I have the exact same problem. I can log into Iworks on my macbook but when I tried to share my numbers doc to iwork on my ipad (first generation) it gave me the same error.  Do you think it has something to do with icloud? 

  • Almost everytime I sign into Game Center or into a game itself my iPad goes back to desktop. Does anyone else have this problem?

    I'm having a lot of problems sometimes signing into Game Center, or when the game itself is loaded I will click on something and it pretty much crashes and goes back to desktop! This is very annoying. Just not sure why this keeps happening. Does anyone else have this problem and know what the cause of it may be?

    My guess would be you don't have enough memory available to run the games that you are trying to play. This is not supposed to happen in iOS - but I have seen too many instances to believe that the iOS can handle it properly all of the time. My suggestion would be to close all apps in the recents tray, reboot and start over again and see if that helps.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    The problem could be something else software related and restoring the device might help, but I would start with this and see how it goes.

  • 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.

  • Problems signing into Game Center account

    Whenever I try to sign into Game Center on my iPad with an account I've been using for a few years now, it suddenly asks me to create a nickname and sign the terms agreement and then it says my nickname and account already exists. This isn't on the create a new account page; it's on the sign in page, and it won't let me actually log onto my game center account. Can anyone show me what to do?
