It is English.

Had my CC linked to both my iPad and iPhone.
Had to restore and setup iPad has a new device.

On loading CC account on iPad its a new account
Still got my account on my iPhone

How do I get it back on my iPad.

Both are signed into game centre on same Apple ID on both devices.

On iPad if I go to manage only options are link iOS device or link different device

I have the same issue. I a have an iPad 3 #1 account, a Galaxy 3 cell phone #3 account, and a Galaxy Tab 10.7 #2 account.
I had no problem linking the iPad to the android cell but the android Galaxy Tab would not link to either of the other 2 devices. I sent a ticket and a few days later the other 2 devices had access to all three accounts (nice), however the original account on the Galaxy Tab was no longer there and was replaced with a new account. Its better than it was but still can't link all three devices. Hope they can help.

This is so obvious it shouldn't even be a question.

You had them set up your ipad as a new device. So link it as a new device. You now have a bonus third account.

Sadly it ain't that straight forward. I already have one pointless account linked from my phone originally. Under my managed devices on my phone I don't want another with no option to remove them.

Then you're the one causing the issue. Either link it as a new device, or deal with a support ticket. Make sure you include the words "operator error" in the subject line.

it isn't an operator error to have pointless accounts that you cant remove from your managed devices.
so basically everytime you restore a device and choose set up has new you are forced to add another new stupid account to your managed section. that's kind of dumb

Nobody is forcing you to use the extra accounts. And they are stored on Gree's servers, not your device, so it's not like they're really causing you an actual problem. You just don't want to look at them so you're not doing what you need to do in order to link your device back to your game centre account. Tell me who you're going to blame for that if it isn't completely on you.

don't get me wrong I can see where your coming from but IMO its down to Gree to sort a better way to do it or make it possible to delete these redundant accounts.

out of interest what happens if I set my phone has old device and ipad has a new device.
