Sony PlayStation® 3 (60 GB) Console Logo

Previous owner login information-Playstation 3 60GB

I bought my ps3 used two years ago. I'm just now getting used to internet capability. When I try to login to the Playstation Network or other programs that require valid email address and password, it always shows the previous owner's info. I try to put in own email address and a password and it always says "invalid email address and/or password". I'd like to get more involved with online programs like the Playstation Network but I can't. I've changed the user info but that doesn't help me login. How do I replace the previous owner's info with my own so the ps3 system recognizes me instead of the previous owner. Thanks.

The only way to do this would be to completely restore the PS3 system so that when it next turns on it asks for your information.

Hope this helps

I bought a used PS3 at a pawn shop. How do I sign up for a PlayStation Network account if the system only says sign in and has the old users email address in there.

From Google:
"From the top level of the PlayStation 3 Home Menu, go to Settings > [System Settings] > [Restore Default Settings]. Once you select [Restore Default Settings], you will see a list of settings that will be restored. Scroll through them and press torestore the settings.Jul 20, 2017"

If you search Google for: "factory reset a PS3" you will find only 1,920,000 other results.

Enjoy!

I had a problem with my router and it had to be reconfigured. When I try to connect to the internet with my playstation it asks for a username (email address) and a password. What password is it referring...

this is your plastation network online information you signed up for when you first went online to play video games, shop at there store ect.

If you forgot this information go to this link, and you can get password reset being you forgot it if you know what email you used.

I tried Calling PS3 support today because of login issues with Playstation Home and no one answers the phone, now there are login Issues with my PSN account.My Connection is working!!!!!!, so dont give me that bs story that my router might be set up wrong! I have internet on the PS3 and at 100% connection. I'm getting fed up with Playstation and hope they can refund my money that I spent on a program that does not work.

I bought My playstation 3 a year ago, now it won't read any discs

Hi,
This is a common problem on the ps3 unfortunately and is caused by a faulty blue-ray drive. Unit will have to go back to Sony for service.

You should try a DVD cleaning disk first to be sure that dirt on the laser lense is not causing the issue

However if this fails and you are confident with electronics there are several videos on YouTube showing how to replace the drive if you choose to order it and do it yourself.

See an example below.

Hope this helps. Please remember to rate my answer. Many Thanks

My ps3 keeps freezing up. i bought it less than a year ago

Does your PS3 have the latest update? If you don't have your PS3 connected to the Internet you will need to go to the Sony website and download it to your computer. From there you can burn it to a CD or a Memory Stick to transfer the install file to the PS3. Here is the link to the 2.52 update...
