  • Cannot add friends in Game Center with child account

    I have two child accounts with their own iPads and unable to add friends in Game Center other than the family group owner.  All restrictions have been turned off in settings and Game Center profiles are setup as public and allow invites.  I would like to friend my two child accounts together so that they can play together.  Is there some restriction for child accounts in Game Center?

    Nevermind...after some more searching I found this, it worked!

    Scroll down until you see the instructions for the Terminal commands, and remember that you need to hit the control key to make the commands work, NOT the command key!

  • I can't add friends on game center on my 5S

    I have recently switched phones, from iPhone 4 to 5S and everything have been good. However today when I tried to add a friend on Game Center I couldn't. It says something about 'can't add friends from this device' and I have no idea why. Also my friend tried adding me instead but I didn't get the request. Please help.

    i tried that that several times in the beginning, but then I finally figured it out ! I had to go to settings then to restrictions , in restrictions I needed to allow Game Center to add friends, but then I just decided to turn all restrictions off in general . glad that's over and done with ! Now it works !  Thank you for your response though!

  • Can't add friend on Game Center

    Heey,
    I just got an iPhone 6 plus and I'm trying to add a friend on Game Center to play games against her.
    Unfortunately I tried to add her through her username, e-mailaddress and iCloud-address but she did not recieve an invitation.
    She either tried to add me through my username, e-mailaddress and iCloud-address but did not recieve an invitation.
    This is really annoying and can't find a working solution on google.
    Thank you very much
    Greatings,

    So I guess Apple Moderators don't really appear on these discussions much to answer questions. Good to know I suppose considering I have the same problem. I have never been able to add a friend request to anyone on Game Center and there is no option for support on the app itself.

  • HT4314 Why can't I add friends in Game Center?

    In Game Center, my friends screen only shows a-z, recent & leader boards. No + to add friends. Why? What am I missing?

  • Can't add friends in Game Center

    HI!  Our doughter has  iPod touch 5th gen. She has a child Apple ID account which we used to sing in to Game Center. She can use multiplayer option but can't add friends from her contacts. When we go to friends button she gets message: allow iCloud contacts in settings. In restrictions adding friends is allowed and on iCloud contacts are on. Tryed to turn off the iPod several times. Please help!

    I've just realised that before getting your reply, but thanks for the confirmation!
    It's strange how all these people on Facebook say "add me!" but they don't give you their Game Center name and so you can't add them!

  • I cannot log into the game center as I forgot my password and am not able to reset it.

    I cannot log into the game center as I forgot my password and am not able to reset it because I keep getting the error that the info I submitted is incorrect.  If I ask for an email message, it doesn't come thru but friend requests are received on that same email.  If I use my second account, I can't use the same nickname and all my info is lost.  Any suggestions?

  • I cannot receive invitation from game center

    I could send invitation to friends in Game center to play games (Fruit Ninja) online together, but I could not receive the invitation from them.
    I have already open game center in notification center, and the Wifi connecting is OK.
    But I have denied the "notification pushing" from game center at the first time I use this app.
    I am wondering how to solve the problem and play games with my friend online.
    Thank you

    i rececently switched to a 5 AND added one for my daughter on her own number but same apple id. i dont have her phone nearby to see what she may have possibly changed.

  • How can my wife and I be friends in game center if we use the same Itunes account?

    How can my wife and I be friends in game center if we use the same Itunes account?

    You can set up multiple accounts in Game Centre, sign out and create new account. You just need a different email address from any existing Apple ID's and a new password. You can still use the old account for purchases.

  • Why do I get constant Game Center notifications when I'm playing games? Seriously, if there isn't an easy way to turn off gamecenter, I'll be switching to a Microsoft phone at my next upgrade. I don't want this garbage popping up while I play my games.

Seriously, if there isn't an easy way to turn off these notifications, I'll be switching to a Microsoft phone at my next upgrade. I don't want this garbage popping up while I play my games. What a worthless, obnoxious piece of junk. Apple, stop ignoring your customers!

    How is Apple ignoring their customers, exactly?  If you don't want Game Center, why did you sign into it?
    Sign out, launch an enabled game.  Game Center pops up, close it, launch the game again, it pops up, close it again.
    Now it doesn't pop up any longer.
    All as documented.

  • I cannot connect to my game center account October 31, 2013. It's said that "Could not connect to game center server"... is the Server down? could it be fixed quickly

    I cannot connect to my game center account October 31, 2013. It's said that "Could not connect to game center server"... is the Server down? could it be fixed quickly I play Clash of Clan and I really upset when this problem happen @@!

    This happened to me as well. **Warning: The following steps will remove all network passwords from your phone and you will have to re-input them.  Unfortunately, this is unavoidable**
    To resolve, I went to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings and accept the Reset Network Settings option.
    Afterwards, I was able to log into the Game Center without a problem.
    Cheers.

    and go to the setting on iPhone, i don't know how?
    Thx for answer

    I had restrictions turned on for the kids.  I turned it off.  Went to GC and it opened and I could log in.  I went back to settings and turned the restrictions back on.  Worked for us!
