@vintageI had a similar experience with AB Seasons and found Rovio to be really terrible in providing assistance. One of the things I lost was Mighty Eagle. One would think that would be a simple fix for Rovio, but it’s been something like 3 months and all I get from them is that I should contact Apple for a refund of my power-up purchases. Since the purchase was made 5 years ago, it’s not likely I’m going to get anywhere with Apple.

@vintage@zackvoyager – Thanks for the very detailed explanation … but now I feel I must be living in another dimension!
While I don’t have/play Epic, Transformers or Go! I do have AB original and Star Wars II. NEITHER of these games have a “map” appear when I open them. The only “buttons” that appear are the gear wheel on the left (prefs for power ups/sound and info) and the arrow button on the right (awards/stats/FB and Twitter).
There’s a shopping cart button (obvious usage) and a profile button that leads me to a registration screen for Rovio. HOWEVER, when I try to register, I’m told that I’m already registered. ???
Something tells me that THAT might be the problem??
Just don’t know how to fix it!!

@vintageRed head? Totem pole? okay … I’m really lost now! Where do I find these things?
vintage
@vintageOkay, so I went to the Rovio website on each of my 2 devices and logged in. Poked around a bit – didn’t see anything that would tell me Rovio knows I have more than one device (not that it matters!).
Checked all my Settings on iPhone and iPad and really didn’t see anything that asks permission (within the Bird apps) to backup to iCloud.
Downloaded Rio HD version from the App store and had it installed (the one I’d copied over from my iPhone had no scores). When I opened Rio, there are STILL no scores …
Clearly I don’t know how to do this!!
Could one of you kind folks talk me through it like I’m a 4th grader?

@vintageSo, I take it that you mean I must log in to my Rovio account through their website? It’s confusing because when I open any AB game (either on iPad or iPhone), I get the Welcome screen with my user name that I’d registered with Rovio, so I figured that I was all set there.
Okay then … guess I’ve got a couple of steps to take and will report back on my success. thanks to @killerkea and @neomerlinmagic for your help.

@vintageSorry to barge into the conversation, but I need help in sync-ing my AB games between iPhone 5s and iPad Air.
Have been playing multiple AB games on the iPhone for years and only JUST got the iPad a couple of days ago. I cannot figure out how to SYNC between the two devices so that I can play on either.
Tried “restoring” my iPhone back-up to the iPad and received SOME levels of SOME of the games, but not all levels of all games (and yes – the backup was recent – in fact, it was performed in prep to ‘restore’ to iPad).
So, what’s the secret?

@vintage@AMslimfordy Re uploading screen shots of Mirror World images: I’m on board. I’d already uploaded the 3 shown below but am willing to do others, as agreed upon by @karen68 and @mvnla2.

@vintage@admins I’ve uploaded 3 random images from Mirror World as seen on my iPhone 5S. These photos are at full scale – that is, what you’re seeing is exactly what I see on the iPhone screen. Birds on queue are difficult enough to see in “normal” levels and virtually impossible in Mirror World. I usually go through one course just to see how the bird behaves then try to remember for the next few tries.

@vintageWhen I hit the X to reject a mission and am told it will be available in (is it 20?) minutes, I usually click away from AB Space to do some other task. What I’m noticing is that, when I return, no time has passed from the “count down” … in other words, because I didn’t keep that Missions window open, the clock stopped until I opened it again. Is that any else’s experience?
added: Just did an experiment where I kept the Missions window open and walked off – had dinner – returned 45 minutes later. EACH of the 3 missions Hour Glass windows show minutes counting down from around 15 minutes! Does this mean that when the countdown gets to zero, it resets if one hasn’t selected the mission?

@vintageDon’t know if it’s platform-specific, but here’s what you do:
1. First, make sure it’s been at least 8 hours since your last carbonite melt started (otherwise, you will not see a ‘Claim” icon).
2. Open SW2 and once it goes through its opening credits, etc., you should see a glowing “Claim” where the carbonite reward is.
3. Hit the Claim icon then quickly close down the app.
4. Wait a few seconds (when I’ve been too hasty, the cycle got interrupted) then open the app again. The Claim icon should be glowing again.
5. Repeat ad nauseum, depending upon your tolerance for mundane things.
Good Luck!

@vintageToday’s effort yielded 5 Padmes, 3 Vaders, 3 Jango Fetts, a few battle droids and other, less powerful characters. Not a bad haul when killing time before dinner.

@vintageThink it has something to do with my internet connection. Sometimes, I notice that the log-in lags a bit … that’s when I show up as a Guest. For the most part, I get pretty bored after going through the cycle 10 to 12 times anyway. Have rec’d some pretty nice “rewards” so I guess I’m okay with things as they are. Thanks for the info on your strat.

@vintageGlad I found this thread and thanks for info on the “bug.” But the bug has a bug …. after opening/closing the program a dozen times (when the rewards were just getting juicy), the next time I opened, I was greeted with “You Are Signed in as Guest” (rather than my login name) with no Carbonite melt nor Swap Characters at all. (And Zero Coins).
Closed the program again and reopened … it recognized my true identity this time ;) but I was back to getting lesser-ability “rewards” when I claimed the Carbonite.
This happened a couple more times.
Well, guess I’ll pursue it when I have a lot of time to kill …. like sitting in the dentist’s waiting room or something.
