Multiple Game Center accounts from one Apple ID

I have 2 Game Center accounts on my apple ID, which I set up on my IOS 5 devices. When I updated to IOS 6, I could no longer get onto one of my accounts. There is no place to log on using your nickname, only your apple ID. On my wife's account I can see myself there as a friend and I cannot seem to access the account though. I have read a few reviews about this but they seem a bit outdated now that IOS 6 is here. Can anyone help?

Im having the problem too, I want to play Clash of clans with my brother but when ever he tries to play, hes me;(
CAN ANYONE HELP US!!! PLEASE!!!

  • Multiple Game Center accounts in one Apple ID

    Is it possible to have more than one Game Center account under one Apple ID? My wife and I share an ID, but want different accounts so that we can play each other. It must have been possible because we were somehow doing that before IOS 6. If I log on using the apple ID I am in my wife's account and I can see me there as a friend, so the account is there. I just can't access it. I really want to challenge people, with the Game Center update! Please help.

  • Can I have multiple Game Center accounts with one Apple ID?

    My wife and I use the same Apple ID but want to have individual game enter accounts. Is this possible? Or does my wife need to set up her own Apple ID? Any one got any ideas?

    After 2 hours worth of searching with no answer, I decided to run a test and it worked. This is what I did to have multiple Game Center IDs on iOS7. (People responding may have over looked this detail because they assumed it was obvious, but it wasn't)
    Answer: you MUST have multiple Apple ID accounts, however, you use the main one to log in to SETTINGS > ITUNES & APP STORE.
    1. I deleted the Alternate Email Address associated with my account
    2. I created an entire new Apple ID with this email address
    3. I login in to SETTINGS > ITUNES & APP STORE with my original Apple ID (credit card on file)
    4. I login to Game Center, iCloud, etc... with my kid's NEW Apple ID
    So purchasing still goes under our shared account and game center, iCloud, etc... go under my kid's Apple ID.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    An apple ID is an account. If your family require that their contacts, calendars etc are separate from each other, they all need their own Apple ID (account).
    iCloud is a different service from iTunes, you can all use different Apple IDs for your iCloud service, would use the same ID for iTunes, thereby being able to share your music, apps, books, TV shows and movies et cetera.

  • HT5622 Two Game Center Accounts on one Apple ID

    I have two Game Center Accounts on one Apple ID. How do I switch between the two?

    Hi,
    Unless you can find a way to delete the Game Center account you don't want, I can't think of any other way to solve your problem. 
    Hope this helps!

  • HT4314 How to create several game center accounts using one apple id?

    I have both ipad and iphone. How can i play with my wife/son via game center?

    varjack:  I guess we're just talking about semantics at this point.  What I was saying is:  you absolutely can have multiple accounts in Game Center and still use the same Apple ID to sign in / make purchases across multiple devices - which I think was what the OP was asking.  I would call them "Game Center accounts" instead of Apple IDs because you never actually log into your device using those accounts - only Game Center.  What you are saying is that they are also Apple IDs.  Either way, the terminology is confusing.
    Suffice to say:  the OP can have multiple accounts through Game Center - one for each device - but still keep the "main" Apple ID for making purchases and sharing apps across both devices.  To do this, make a new account in Game Center for the second device.
    Luisno9:  If you're asking is it possible to merge the data from the two accounts, my guess is no.  If you're asking how to log in using only one account excusively, you could try deleting the second account (if that's possible - I haven't tried), although I'm sure you'd lose your place in the game.  Finally, if nothing else works I'd suggest only opening your apps using the same method each time to avoid the problem.  Sorry that's not more help!

  • Why do i have two game center accounts on one apple id and how do i log into the other one

    One day while i was bored i started up a game but all of my progress items and everything that i paid for was gone and it was the same in all of my other game center related apps. After a long chain of emails with the maker of the game he stopped being helpful but we figured out that i have two game center accounts but only one apple id. So how do i log into the account with all of my data?

    Get a separate Apple ID for one of the phones. Or turn OFF iCloud contacts synching on the one you do not want contacts to synch.
    Settings>>iCloud

  • Can I have more than 2 game center accounts with one apple ID?

  • HT4314 Multiple game center accounts with on Apple ID

    We have 3 i touches at our house. My son went to add a picture to his Game Center account, and now can't get into his account, because it asks for the ID and so on. Using the Apple ID, it defaults to my game center account, and since it only asks for the Apple ID, not the Game Center Name, how can I differientiate between the three?

    Surely we don't have to create new Apple ID's for children?? Also, if we can no longer have multiple user names on our Game Center accounts, as we have done for years, we had 3 users, myself and my 2 children. How can we transfer their exsisting achievements etc linked to their own user name over to a new iTunes account? I know I don't want them having their own account, this is not very family friendly at all!! Please fix this, as I know there are a lot of people complaining and some have spent quite a bit of money on their childrens user name and now they can no longer access...

  • How can I move a game center username from one Apple ID to another?

    I've tried to do this but it doesn't seem possible. For instance, trying to choose the username from another Apple ID you own correctly tells you that it's already in use. However, logging in with the Apple ID that has the username you want and trying to change the Apple ID tells me that the Apple ID I want to move the username to already has a username even though it doesn't because I'm at the stage of choosing a username in that other account. In this case I get the error message: "This change is not allowed because that Apple ID is already in use. You can try again using a different name or leave your Apple ID unchanged."
    I read about one potential solution to this and that is changing the username you want in the Apple ID you no longer want associated with Game Centre, thereby releasing it and then quickly try to grab it again in the Apple ID you do want it on. I'm a bit nervous about trying this though because I do like the username enough that I'd rather stay with the existing Apple ID than risk losing it.
    Has anyone tried doing this and had success? Maybe Apple blocks you from using a username for a period of time after it's been associated with an account, so I'm not sure I want to do this.
    I wish Apple would just let us consolidate Apple ID/accounts and give us more control over our accounts (including the ability to close old/redundant Apple IDs)! It's a cause of endless frustration for so many people!!!

  • Two Game Center Accounts on One Apple ID

    Hello,
    From the looks of things I'm the only one experiencing this issue and it's really starting to bug me out unfortunately. There's an APP that I use on my spare time. When I first installed the app it was registered under my Apple ID and Nickname "San Huevon". For some reason I got bored of it and eventually a few days ago I got hooked on the urge again. Only this time when I went back in it asked me to load my profile or create a new one, so I created a new Nickname "SanHuevon" technically speaking but still registered and logged in through my original Apple ID. After a few days of playing I loaded the app and accidentally clicked on "load profile" it loaded my old profile and now I've lost all in-app purchases that I had purchased in my second profile. I've tried changing my Nickname back to the second one which was "SanHuevon" without the space and it says it's already taken. I've been unsuccessful at this, whenever I contact Apple Support it's as if I'm talking to another country?
    If anyone has gone through this and can shed some light I would greatly appreciate it, although I'm sure I'm just out of luck on this one.
    Thank you all in advance for taking the time to read this.

    Hi Jamesdwills,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    If you are using the same Apple ID on both devices, the Game Center profile should be the same.
    Check out this information from the iPad User Guide.  Try signing out of the Game Center on both devices and then sign back in with the correct Apple ID:

    Edit your Game Center profile (tap your nickname)
    Get friend recommendations from Contacts or Facebook
    Specify which notifications you want for Game Center. Go to Settings > Notifications > Game Center. If Game Center doesn’t appear, turn on Notifications.
    Change restrictions for Game Center. Go to Settings > General > Restrictions.

  • Move Game Center profile from one apple ID to another

    Hi,
    To access my game center profile (achievements and challenges etc...) I have to remember to login to an old appleID I don't use anymore for anything significant except game center.
    My other appleId (which is my iCloud account) has everything on it, all apple services and iTunes purhases etc.. has no game center profile on it.
    I would really really like to move it form the first apple ID to my iCloud one so I just sign into one appleID for everything.
    Any help on this would be much appreciated, promise!
    Many Thanks,
    Jonny
