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?

  • 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. 
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    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 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!!!

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • HT5312 why can't I sign into my account and add a rescue email so I will be able to redo my security questions? I have been unable to buy anything from Itunes because it's asks me for security questions that I don't remember what I put

    why can't I sign into my account and add a rescue email so I will be able to redo my security questions? I have been unable to buy anything from Itunes because it's asks me for security questions that I don't remember what I put in the first place

    1. Because if you could, someone who breaks into your account could do it as well.
    2. You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

    Why can't I sign into my iCloud on my iPad but can on any other devices i.e my I phone and I mac

    What App are you using to log in, Safari?
    You cannot access icloud.com from an ios device in a browser. They have individual apps (find my phone, mail, calendar) to access those services from an ios device.

    "An error occurred during activation. Try again." Why can I not sign into Imessage?

    Hi,
    You stated earlier that you had already deleted the "madrid" .plist with no effect.
    Can I check you did this with the app closed down or at least restarted the app straight afterwards ?
    If you did that close the app if open and access the ~/Library/Preferences  folder again.
    This time delete com.apple.imessage.bag.plist 
    This item stores the Apple server used for your Login to the iMessages server and contains a date/time reference.
    Restarting the app after deleting this file will make it reconnect with the iMessages servers in a fresh manner which my solve things.
    It may sort out any date/time issues with the stored date.
    Messages is one of the app that Apple have "Sandboxed".
    This means that some of it's operations are held away from other apps to prevent one app bringing down several others.
    This is turn means that the route or path used by the app to Read and Write to the various .plists is different to the direct placing in ~/Library/Preferences.
    The Path is ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.iChat/Data/Library/Preferences
    Mostly the items in here are then Aliases that point to the actual originals in ~/Library/Preferences.  However there are exceptions.
    You can copy and paste the Path above in to the Finder > Go Menu > Go to Folder dialogue box to access this folder.
    Once there use the Finder's View Menu > Show Path Bar.
    This adds a collection of folders across the bottom of the Finder window.
    Right click on the Preferences folder at the right hand list of the Path.
    Chose the Get Info option.
    In the Info panel scroll to the Bottom.
    Your Shortname should appear (with (Me) as well) and you should have Read and Write Permissions
    If you highlight this and then use the Cogwheel type iCon it should reveal you shortname again but in Greyed out form which mean you Own the File/folder
    Repeat this for each containing folder until the Library item on the left (you don't need to do the Little House  icon one)
    You should have Read an Write Permissions and Own all of them.
    Can you confirm this ?
