Can't access game center using nickname from second account

I have two Apple IDs associated with two different e-mail addresses. I set up a game center account with one address and another account with the second address and different ID. After my ipad had to be reset following a crash during the upgrade to ios7 I have been unable to access one of my game center accounts with most of my games on it. Is there any way I can log into the game center just using my game center nickname. I have tried a number of options given on different forums but the message I get when trying to use my old nickname is that it has already been taken.

Hey Aldy,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your Apple ID. I would be concerned about this too, and I have a couple of suggestions for the issue you are experiencing with your account.
It sounds like you are not getting the email to reset your password. If you have a rescue email setup for your Apple ID, the reset password email will be sent there and not your Apple ID email address:
When you provide a rescue email address, all future security emails, such as password resets from iForgot, will be sent to the address provided.

Danke für gute Ratschläge

I made an Apple ID for my daughter and her installed the Ipod
Now I had to reset the device to factory settings and I can not remember the password, nor the exact wording of the Apple ID.
I only have the Game Center Nickname.Kann so I find my ID again?
Thank you for good advice
Is there a way to find my Apple ID Name if I can't remember it?
Yes. Visit My Apple ID and click Find your Apple ID. See Finding your Apple ID if you'd like more information.

I can't view game center games

I can login to game center but i can not see my games. I used to be able to see them ok. Now alot of my games won't load properly. I have reloaded games etc, but nothing is helping. Help.

get your game center account set up, then go to the Real Racing app and start it up. You should get a little game center pop up at the top of the screen saying "Welcome back (your username)". Then Real Racing should appear in your games on Game Center

Downloaded IOS 7.1 and now can't access Game Center or friends list in the games I play on ipad. What is the fix?

I downloaded IOS 7.1 on my ipad. Now I can't open Game Center or access my friends lists in the games I play. My ipad is about 3 years old. What is the fix?

Swiping up from the bottom of the screen with four fingers did not bring up the app preview. A single press on the home button still brings me back to the home screen, but a double press of the home button does nothing following updating to 7.1 Given that, when I added a software home button as suggested by DIAVONEX, I found that all of the apps WERE still open! So thank you DIAVONEX, and you should be careful, bobseufert, as your information was inaccurate.( I did try turning it off and that didn't change anything. ) I don't really want a software home button on my screen, but I guess I will use it until either there is another update to resolve this glitch or someone else identifies a quirky setting that I inadvertently activated...

Hello there, is there any way i can log onto Game Center via just my Username as i have forgotten the other details (I made the account when i was 11 - I'm now 14 and have a bad memory)

The Question says it all really.
Is there any way i can log onto Game Center via just my Username as i have forgotten the other details (I made the account when i was 11 - I'm now 14 and have a bad memory)?
I remember my Username on Gamcenter but due to the recent update of iOS7, it is only letting me Sign in through my APPLE ID - which i have forgotten over time. I wish to recover my account recently because I remember purchasing Gems on the game 'Clash of Clans' and I wish I could restart playing the game.
Many thanks for taking your time to read and answer this question.

Can I play Game Center Games with other family members sharing one Apple ID

I have several IOS devices sharing the same Apple ID that my sons and wife use. I have set up a game center account using that ID and can find no way that we can play head to head games on those multiple devices against each other using that one Apple ID login, even if I create multiple Nicknames. Am I missing something?

An Apple ID is just an account that uses an email address and password. It does not have to be tied to iTunes. You can create one here. Create one each for your sons and wife.

Can you transfer game center to a different apple id?

Hi,
does anyone know whether it's possible to change the apple id associated with game center on an ipad - when I go into the account settings, I can change the email associated with it, the name, nickname, etc. but not the apple id... Does anyone know whether it's possible?
Thanks, M

Game Center nickname password question:

My daughters each have their own nicknames for Game Center on their iPod Touches. Each nickname has its own password. My youngest can't remember her password.
Since I updated her iOS, I have to log her back into her Game Center account. Is there a way to retrieve her nickname password without resetting my Apple ID password? Since they are minors and don't have email addresses, they are all on my Apple ID. Resetting my Apple ID doesn't seem to work, and it's the only thing Apple seems to want to do. I can't find a way to contact Game Center directly.
Any other ideas?

Is it possible to delete my game center nickname?

Is it possible to delete my nickname in game centre and use it in another Apple ID?

Certainly! To change your nickname:
1. Open Game Center, and tap the "Me" tab on the bottom.
2. Scroll down and tap your Apple ID, then tap "View Account."
3. It might prompt you for your password; enter it.
4. Scroll down to the Nickname bar. Here you can change it to anything!

Can't change Game Center settings on a french iOS (maybe other languages)

I just spent a fair amount of time with the support concerning a serious bug in Game Center on a French system, I think it is worth sharing.
Summary:
On a french system, one cannot edit game center settings (country, emails, and more importantly, confidentiality — If your profile is public, you can't switch it to private)
Steps to Reproduce:
Setup iOS in french
Go to Game Center
touch the mail address (it has to be already configured)
choose to view account
Try using one of the following actions
change email address
confidentiality
country
Additional note : there is no Save button on the upper right corner
Expected Results:
A view controller should be pushed in the current navigation controller
Actual Results:
The view is simply scrolled to top
Regression:
I think this bug is present since first releases of Game Center
Workaround :
A solution to perform changes is to switch the system to english and when done, switch it back to french.

Thanks for sharing, nice tip

Can two separate Game Center users share the same Apple ID?

Two people share the same Apple ID on their separate iPads. Now want to start getting into games and compete with Achivements. Can they have separate Game Center accounts using the same Apple ID?
(similar to how they use the same Apple ID with FaceTime, but are able to use different email addresses for video calls)

Creating a new iTunes account does not remove any purchases made on a different account.
If you want to create a new account : iTunes: How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes
Or if you will want to use it in the stores and don't want to give credit card details : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method
Or if you are not currently logged into an account in game centre then you should have a 'create a new Apple id' link at the bottom of the login screen in it.

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.

Can I change Game Center account that is linked to clash of clans

HI so when I first got the game Clash Of Clans i was just
messing around with it and linked it to my parents game center/iTunes account unknowingly. Well now that I have actually gotten to like the game and such I want to like it to my own iTunes/Game Center account. So basically I want to change the current Game Center account that it is linked to, to a my
own game center account but I do not know if this is possible
or how how to do it. Would I have to Call apple or supercell?.. Please help thank you

It looks like you have multiple Apple IDs (which are linked to Gamecenter). Try putting each of them one at a time in Settings>Gamecenter and loading COC after logging into one. Or if you have both devices, you can open CoC on the old one, you can use the option to transfer your village to a new device (I'm assuming you know where that is...you are a th8).
