Video activation error - thoughts? - Blu-ray Forum

So in my place, there are 3 ps3s currently.

Long story short, there's the first: the family unit, the second, my own: a 120gb slim, and third, a brand new 320gb for myself again. I did a data transfer from 120gb to my new one, and plan to sell the old girl off. All three ran my psn id at some point. Additionally, my sibling has a psp, which has held my id. All 4 units in total have downloaded both video and game content from psn.

Everything went great with the data transfer, all my games work fine, however when I went to activate video content, I get an error:This PS3 system cannot be activated. This content cannot be used. 1 PS3 systems are already activated for your account. To activate this system, you must deactivate another PS3 system.

I went back to the other two ps3s, and deactivated them. Even completely reformated the 120gb (gonna sell it after all). Both gave confirmation for deactivation complete. Went back to the new ps3, got the same error. Deactivated video on the psp....same error....

Am I missing something here?
