Q: Game Center is blank screen after iOS 7.06 update.

I installed the new security update on my iPad, and now Game Center is just a blank screen. In Settings, the app info screen is also blank, with the little spinner going. Because Game Center nips broken, I can't log into my favorite games. Can anyone help? Did this happen to anyone else?

iPad 2, iOS 7.0.4, iOS 7.06 applied

    Hello Krudin,

     

     

     

    I'd recommend signing out of Game Center, force closing any open apps, then restarting your iPad.

     

    You can sign out of Game Center at the following location:

    • iOS: Tap Settings > Game Center.
    • OS X: Click your Game Center account on the Me pane, and then View Account.

    I have this same issue after updating to iOS 7.0.6.  Game Center is a complete white screen.  Cannot sign out of Game Center from "Settings > Game Center" either.  All that shows up in Game Center settings is my Apple ID and the spinning wheel.  Tapping my Apple ID here (to sign out) has no effect. I even tried resetting my Apple ID password to trick it into failing, but no dice.

     

    Restarting/resetting my iPad does NOT resolve the problem.  The only temporary solution is to reset all settings:  Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.  It's a temporary solution as the problem returns in a day or two.  Very frustrating, as reconfiguring all settings with that frequency, just to access Game Center, wastes even more time than playing the games I can't without Game Center.

     

    I don't know if there is an application compatibility issue, they all seem to work after resetting all settings...  It all started happening after upgrading to 7.0.6...  Looks like a lot of people are having this issue, though for some it started after upgrading to earlier versions of iOS 7.

     

    Hmmm...

    This option is not working for me.  In settings and game center, when I tap on my account name it gets frozen on that screen.  ??  I force quit and turn off and on and same thing keeps happening.  SO frustrating and Apple won't help??????

    I don't know if this helps anyone, but I find if I go to Settings - WiFi- Forget this network, and then reconnect to my Wifi it will reconnect to Game Center and all my games start working properly again.
