F.A.Q.
I can’t connect to the PlayStation Network. What to do?
The inability to connect to the PSN servers is a typical bug that has affected all Sony consoles since the PS3. The cause of the problem may lie both in Sony servers and Internet connection issues.
To fix the problem, check the Internet connection settings on your console and restart the device. In case you use a Wi-Fi connection, reboot your router. If the system still shows an error when entering PSN, then most likely, Sony is conducting technical work on its servers. So, try reconnecting to the network a bit later.
How to fix the Dualsense firmware update error?
When you turn on your console for the first time, the system may prompt you to update your controller. If you missed the update for some reason, you still have the opportunity to install it. Follow these simple steps:
- Connect the Dualsense controller to your PlayStation 5 with a USB cable, reboot the console, and install the update.
- Keep the gamepad turned on until the end of the installation.
- If the PS5 still refuses to update the controller, reset the console to factory settings.
How can I transfer my PS4 data to PS5?
Errors often occur when trying to make data exchange between consoles with a LAN cable. Therefore, it’s better to use a FAT32 USB drive. Finally, the last and most effective option is to transfer your data from PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5 using cloud storage. But in this case, you need to subscribe to PS Plus. So, reset the console to factory settings in the “Safe Mode” and download your data from the cloud storage when setting up the PS5.
