I just got a Vita, Enso etc all set up. I made a new PSN account recently just for trophies. But lately I can't sign into the PSN whether from the website as I did when I created it, or the Vita. On the website, it always times out. On the Vita, it insists the password is wrong (possibly a default error that assumes the user's wrong). Previously, the website would say the password was wrong. Request a reset, and it's like "You can't use your old password" (What?). Circular. Seems there's a database disconnect. If the PSN is gone, will there be an alternate server to sync trophies to? Or any solution to this?

You'll have to create a devive setup password in security settings to log in. This is necessary for all vitas and PS3s going forward as the account password will say it's incorrect even when it's right due to how Sony set things up.

Thanks for the quick reply. If the server ever comes back up, I'll try that.

Sure, no problem. Hopefully, the server issues will be resolved soon.

I've done 3 sets of 15 "Move the person to the right row" anti-bot puzzles and then nothing happens. So frustrating. Why's this device thing necessary anyway?

It's supposed to create a password to use to sign in on vita or ps3

They're getting really descriptive here. I'm tempted to try Tech Support. This level of customer service is criminal.

It's definitely strange! Maybe try a different browser? I usually do it within the playstation app, and it works without issue or try again after some time, perhaps there's still an issue with the servers that hasn't been resolved yet if that fails then yeah I'd contact tech support to see what's going on.

Finally got it. Device password was the thing. Seemed to be firewall issues or something. Or just bad luck. Think my trophies are glitched though. I'm Lv30+ after only 1 Platinum? That shouldn't get me past Lv3 if I remember right. Did the algorithm change in the last 10 or so years?

    I just recently picked up a n64 from a garage sell, and looking to mod it and add a HDMI port to it. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3548173115...044&customid=4f3038da73b61afddf7e5e90f4153856
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'd like to find a power strip and HDMI selector built in 1 unit, so I can select which game system I want, and will switch to that hdmi, and power on that plug/power supply only, so don't have all game systems powered all the time, but can't find anything like. May just have to make something myself.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Maybe start a kick starter page and sell them, yea right. Big N would prob C&D me, not anything Big N related, but just because that's what they do nowdays. Then come out with they own in a year or so.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nice. Which operating system are you installing?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, windows 10 and some linux distro like linux mint
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    dualbooth
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Yeah, I'd recommend having another OS just in-case you want to play games.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least Linux doesn't contain spyware than what Windows has.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, cuz of lag?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No. Whenever you use the internet on Windows, Microsoft collects personal data and installs bloatware that isn't necessarily needed, such as Edge.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Speaking of which
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ,
    I recall @impeeza mentioned some trick about not having bloatware when installing windows where you set up your country to "world" or smh like that

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Yes, you can debloat the operating system, but in some cases for me it just reinstalls them.

    I also recall my brother downloded a "non bloated" version of windows 11 on his pc

  • impeeza @ impeeza:
    @Xdqwerty yes, when you are installing Windows on the first steps you are asked for your current location, you MUST to select «international» so no bloatware is installed, because the bloatware is location based. if this night I have some time I will setup a VM and take screenshots.
