I have a problem, just bought a new ps3 slim, before that i backup up all my save files and other data using the backup data utility in the ps3, so now when i back it all up to my new ps3, some of the save files arent there, like heavy rain and the saboteur games which i'v played for like countless of hours are not there in the backup file. As far as i know theres two methods to back up save games, one is done manually (triangle + copy) and the other is with this backup utility. So is there anyway i can get it back ?
and also the psn game sharing, its stated that i have used 30gb of the hd but i cant see the psn games i bought via game sharing thank you |

QUOTE(shahreza2000 @ Oct 16 2010, 11:10 PM) its so obvious u gonna lose data on that, inc those psn games shared and copy-protected files. Some savegames might not work too. Its not advisable to backup from old ps3 and use it to restore on new ps3... it doesn't work properly. but if your ps3 has ylod then you cant really use that transfer utility from old ps3 to new ps3, so for that shared psn games i'v been buying from buyers here like (terion...) theres no way i can get them back right ?the best way to transfer data 1 to 1 is using the data transfer utility, from old ps3 to new ps3 (same fw too) on LAN network. i hope u've deactivated all the psn accounts in ur old ps3, so that u can use it in new ps3. i just expected all my save games to be backup up without any problems, i mean isnt that the essential thing you want backup utility to do and even that is missing a few games like "The saboteur" . Played it for like weeks and now its all gone, really f'ed up This post has been edited by spax: Oct 16 2010, 11:52 PM |

QUOTE(shahreza2000 @ Oct 17 2010, 12:28 AM) if u want to get those shared games (like terion), you have to deactivate the account he's given to you. If your ps3 ylod before deactivation, all is lost. You have to rebuy them again. yea i'v already sold it, the psn games i dont mind buying again, but those save games take time and effort to get it,other savegames (some are fine due to tied only to psn id) and some are copy-protected, meaning it will stick to only your old system signature. the backup utility is meant for the existing system, not for transfer to the other system. the only way for you to get all copy protected files are to do what i've suggested, data transfer utility. If you can get ylod ps3 revive for temporary, deactivate all psn id in that system, and transfer all into the new ps3. Ylod ps3 to revive is 50/50 chance. heres where you can vote for sony to change their policy http://share.blog.us.playstation.com/ideas...ame-save-files/ and thanks shahreza2000 for the help |
