Can't login to Game Center!

I decided to try Game Center, as I have never used it before. I entered my Apple ID and password, a pop-up came up telling me to make a profile and to hit continue to set up an account. It asks me for my location (UK), I hit Next, and it asks me for my D.O.B, and I enter it. When I hit next, it shows "loading" and then goes back to the original screen. I have not used Game Center before, so I don't know how it works. Any ideas on why it won't let me and how to fix this? I have tried resetting my password, but no luck.User uploaded fileUser uploaded fileUser uploaded fileUser uploaded file

I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 5.0


I also had the same problem where entering my Apple ID and password would just get me into an endless loop of the Location (country) page and date-of-birth page.


justin291's solution worked for me. Here's what I did...


1) I downloaded a free game app that works with Game Center...Run, Run, Chicken v.1.1

2) I opened the app, then closed it. When I opened it again, it asked me if I wanted to use an existing account or create a new account for Game Center. I chose to use an existing account.

3) I entered my e-mail address (in my case, my Apple ID) and password.

4) I had to verify the Location (country) and date of birth.

5) Then I went right to the terms and conditions page, and upon acceptance, I got to the Game Center set up. I completed the set up.

6) When I opened the Game Center app on my iPhone, I was able to get into Game Center without any sign in problems.


Hope this works for you.
