how do I set up a 2nd PS3 - Blu-ray Forum

Chris60119 · 03-20-2011, 05:27 PM

I want to be able to down load everything I already paid for on my new PS3. What do I need to do?

u can use a usb drive (that's what i did) and copy everything onto the stick and dump the stick onto the new one.

or u can use an ethernet cable (i think) and link the 2 together and move stuff that way.

PlayStation Network --> Account Management --> Transaction Management --> Download List

Everything you have downloaded so far will be there and available to re-download.

You can't move PSN content with a USB stick. Only game saves, photos, videos (not purchased on PSN), and music.

top right of PSN is an icon called "download list". Go there and re-download everything. Takes seconds to click on everything.

Obviously you have to sign in with the same ID of your old machine. You can do this for 5 machines apparently.
