Trophy Save File Error Caused By Changing Password/Login

Warning: Changing your PSN email or password via the PS3's XMB account management tool will corrupt your save files! Sadly, PlayStation 3 Firmware Update 2.53 does NOT resolve this issue.

PS3Freak6354d ago

This is extremely irritating as for over a month now, i havn't been able to play several games. Including, GTA4, Pain, Pixeljunk eden, Wipeout HD, Far Cry 2, and Resistance 2. Even though there are multiple forums out there full of people with this problem sony has seemed to fully ignore it. I'm gonna have to call them soon threating to supply every person with this issue a 360, my treat. Then maybe they'll pay more attention :P. Anyone else here encounter this issue?

ezcex6354d ago

can't you change it back to the way it was before? maybe it will work then. I remember when I made a new account and with a new name and copied the save files over from old to new, it wouldn't let me play some of them.

butterfinger6354d ago

Oh well, lol. The problem is real and PS3 gamers need to know what's going on. It seems like this is nothing a quick FW update couldn't fix, but Sony must first agree to take it seriously. It's unfortunate that it has seemed to really come into the light after the latest FW.

thebudgetgamer6354d ago

and i changed the password a bunch of times and nothing happened

:)

PS3Freak6354d ago

It got approved because the other time i tryed to post it, it was just a forum post i was linking too.

Beleive me the first thing i tried was to change to back but it didnt do anything. Maybe it has something to do with certain ps3s. IF you look up some forums via searching "Ps3 error 80022d11" on google you will find that lots of people have this problem.

IdleLeeSiuLung6354d ago

Wow, that is a serious error. How the heck do you get corrupt files?

If I get a Yellow Light of Death, at least I can get it fixed. I get a corrupt savegame and I'm f**ked! Got to go backup my savegames...

Bubble Buddy6354d ago (Edited 6354d ago )

This is happening to some people. Happened to me. It will say you've "copied this file from another person".

If you want a fix, save all your data on a usb stick. activate your account, delete User, make a new User, link it to your PSN, and viola. Works for me for LBP. Do it on your own risk. Never tried it for other games since LBP was the only one stuck.

I've done this multiple times after trophies have launched. I think you just have to be unlucky.

Sharingan_no_Kakashi6354d ago

I JUST CHANGED IT THIS MORNING!!!!!!!! I HOPE MY DATA ISNT GONE I HAVE TO GO CHECK IT NOW.

PS3Freak6354d ago

I don't understand why people don't seem to beleive this is true. I'm telling you RIGHT NOW, go and search "PS3 error 80022d11" on google and you will find MULTIPLE forums full of people with this issue. Do your research before you discredit me.

JD_Shadow6354d ago (Edited 6354d ago )

They aren't saying that you're completely BSing this, but you're not considering all the facts here, and that this may be more of an isolated case than this article is making it out to be. They're also talking about their own experiences and that it hasn't affected them just yet.

If this IS factual (no reason to believe it isn't and yeah, people might want to make sure they're not underplaying this before saying their piece), then I hope Sony fixes it soon, but I think your overreacting over what the comments are saying here.

Marceles6354d ago (Edited 6354d ago )

It might be true, but the post makes it seem like no PS3 owner at all can change their PS3's password unless they want corrupted files. That's why everyone in this thread is running around like a chicken with their head cut off...you should at least make it clear that it doesn't happen to everyone.

GarandShooter6354d ago (Edited 6354d ago )

I changed my email address from a Yahoo address to my ISP address without a problem. Freak, what model do you have? I have a launch 60GB console, and was wondering if it was a model(s) specific issue. I appreciate the heads up, even though I've had no problems.

A little off topic, I did the same thing on my 360, and all is ok, but I still have to use my Yahoo address (which no longer exists btw) to access xboxlive.com. I checked on xboxlive.com and the email address they have listed is my ISP address, but I still have to use the old one to sign in. Anybody else experience this, and is there something I'm missing?

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle1d 5h ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde8d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy8d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga9d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit9d ago (Edited 9d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer19929d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga8d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac8d ago (Edited 8d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman8d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger8d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box9d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion8d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv729d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent759d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit9d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz1499d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning779d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
