Yeah, it's kind of unacceptable.

Any locked saves can only be restored onto the same system. Unlocked saves will copy as normally.MemoryofMaggot said:PLEASE DO. I'm right behind you on this.
Quick question about backing up saves...I think I remember hearing that if you use the backup utility to back up your PS3 saves, it will also copy LOCKED game saves, is this correct?

Hylian7 said:Who knows? I started my undergrad Computer Science degree, and we learned how to make an if statement to determine a leap year within the first three weeks of my intro to programming class. It was in Java, but still, if this is something people are learning in intro to programming classes, how did they screw this up?!
BobTheFork said:ok, got the BR drive out, but not seeing what the CMOS battery looks like, any one help?
Im not syaing it's gone but could it be placed in a differant spot then the system they tried this one. I really need a picture here because there's no battery visible at this point at all.Valkyr Junkie said:No battery means your PS3 would forget what time it is every time you unplugged it, which doesn't happen. Keep searching.

can't play offline games either. If it was online games only i wouldnt give a shitDipswitch said:I noticed this randomly on my phat 80GB model last night. Didn't really impact me because I intended to watch a movie, but I did spend a few minutes troubleshooting it before giving up. Just checked and it's still porked.
Not a big deal for me personally, but I can imagine folks who use their PS3's to play online regularly aren't happy.
Nope, they won't take it in if that sticker is removed, that's how they know if it's been opened or not, which voids the warranty. Most consoles have a sticker like that that leaves the word "void" over everything after you remove it. I used to work in a Mom and Pop video game store and we had rejected a few Xbox 360s that were trying to be traded in because that sticker behind the faceplate was gone.Cruzader said:OT: Hey is this easy to do, clean up the inside I mean? And since you removed the sticker, would Sony still take it in for repairs if you sent it to them or no?? Thats what's stopping me from doing so. But Im sure I'd rather save that $150 and save for a Slim if mine died.

Will try, thank you.Yeef said:Any locked saves can only be restored onto the same system. Unlocked saves will copy as normally.
In order to transfer over locked saves you have to use the transfer utility to hook the old PS3 up to the new one. I'd recommend bringing an ethernet cable with you to Best Buy and having them do the transfer there rather than trying to restore a backup.
Leave it off until 8PM Eastern or so. If it doesn't automatically fix itself by then, there's no reason to leave it off. You'll be just as screwed as the rest of us.Norwegian Wood said:I haven't turned on my PS3 for a while, i guess it wouldn't be a good thing to turn it on now would it?

Shos the correct time and I can play games with trophies.
gofreak said:Well, at least that seems to be the first official acknowledgement that it's a clock bug, and not a PSN issue.
Dreams-Visions said:cool.
I'll say, "a majority", then. and I'm certainly inclined to believe that the minority who are experiencing no issues aren't because of a special set of circumstances (like their PS3's being off for awhile or some such).
there is no manufacturing subset of fat PS3's that are immune.

We hope to resolve this problem within the next 24 hours. In the meantime, if you have one of the above listed models, we advise that you do not use your PS3 system, as doing so may result in errors in some functionality, such as recording obtained trophies, and not being able to restore certain data.
It's elaborate to get to the battery, but this looks like a 20gig(should be about same as 60gig?). http://www.llamma.com/PS3/repair/PS3...y_tutorial.htmBobTheFork said:OK then, thank you.
Mine is different. There is a huge plate under my BR drive, and I can't just take the corner off. It must be different becaue when his drive came out, there was no plate there. It covers the whole bottom half
has nothing to do with PSNLM4sure said:Who are the idiots at Sony just waiting around to see if it fixes itself? This is unacceptable. I guess this is what you get with a free online service. You can bet Microsoft would be trying a bit harder to resolve such an issue since people are shelling out money to use their service.
