If you plan on selling your PlayStation 4, here’s how to reset it by deactivating your PSN account and deleting all of the files on the console to put it back into factory condition.There are only a couple of things you need to do in order to completely wipe your PlayStation 4. You first need to deactivate your PSN account from the console so that the new owner can login using his own account, and then you’ll need to completely wipe everything off the hard drive, which will put the software back into a state just like it was when you first pulled the PS4 out of the box for the first time.
Step One: Deactivate Your PSN AccountDeactivating your PSN account from your PS4 won’t completely delete your PSN account–it’ll just disassociate your account with that specific PS4. It’s sort of similar to turning off Find My iPhone and signing out of iCloud on an iPhone that you’re selling.From the main screen on your PS4, hit “Up” on the controller and you’ll see your latest notifications.Hit “Right” on your controller until you get to “Settings”. Select it.Scroll down and select “PlayStation Network/Account Management”.Select “Activate as Your Primary PS4”.On the next screen, “Deactivate” might be grayed out, which technically means your account is already deactivated, but just to make absolutely sure that is, you can activate it and then deactivate. Step Two: Wipe Your PS4Now that your PSN account is deactivated on your PS4, you can completely erase the console, which will delete everything from it and put it back into factory condition.From the main menu on your PS4, hit “Up” on the controller and you’ll see your latest notifications.Hit “Right” on your controller until you get to “Settings”. Select it.Scroll all the way down and select “Initialization”.Select “Initialize PS4”.You’ll have two options: “Quick” or “Full”. A Quick initialization is just that–it quickly wipes all of the data, but not very securely.

So someone with specialized software could recover any of that data.A Full initialization wipes all of the data securely and prevents anyone else from recovering the data. This process can take several hours, though. It’s best to choose the Full initialization.Once you choose one, select “Initialize” to confirm the action.Then, hit “Yes” on the next screen to confirm again.Your PS4 will reboot and the process will begin. Again, this will take at least a couple of hours, even if it says there’s less time remaining at the beginning.After it’s complete, the setup guide will show up on the screen, where it asks you to connect your PS4 controller to the console using a USB cable.At this point, you can turn off the console by pressing the power button on the PS4 unit until it beeps. From there, unplug it, pack it up, and prepare it for selling.
Doesn't look like you can do that. Kinda stupid imo if you wandted too. I mean, sure getting more space is kinda cool. But going all the way and be like 'Hmm, Let me just delete this Add-on for. How to Delete Add Ons. Browser add-ons can add a lot of functionality to your web browser, but too many can really slow things down. Some add-ons are actually dangerous and a threat to your personal information. Removing add-ons that you. In the library, going into the my add-ons menu, it says they're still installed. This is correct, when you delete a game it deletes all the files for that game that are installed, other. Or your PS4 is doing things no other ps4 does.
This is somewhat unrelated, but maybe just related enough to get a response here?I logged onto my PS4 a few days ago and noticed that Resogun had an update automatically downloaded and installed (I'm assuming while it was on standby).I, being curious and nosey, decided to see what would happen if I hit 'Options' on the update. I saw a 'Delete' command, and instead of backing out, I mistakenly confirmed the delete, and apparently no longer have the update.Now, I can't seem to find the update anywhere and the PS4 hasn't notified me it's re-downloaded or re-installed the update at all, and going to the Store did nothing.Any suggestions?
(FYI, I have no idea what the update did, and Resogun runs without any issues currently, but if there are any fixes / updates / new stuff, I want it back ).

Im downloading Battlefield 4, but my connection was really bad some minutes ago and I believe that was the reason why the game update failed to continue.That said, the game itself is still being downloaded, but the game update is not anymore.How can I add the patch to the download list again??Also, if my internet connection fail in the middle of the download, I have to start all over again?I think these lack of download options is the major problem in the system, functionally saying. =/Hope in the next firmware update they add options to pause / supend (in case of a connection problem) to the downloads. Thats basic stuff.
How you do restore your licenses from the system menu?Also. Just ckecked the system storage management, and it says my Knack digital download is 29gb / 35gb. Why isnt that completed?
It finished to download and install yesterday at night. =/ My console was all the night and day in standby, and in the notifications menu theres nothing to download for Knack.Will I have to download it all again??That 'download' thing in PS4 is getting me on my nerves!!Edit:Nevermind. In the game menu it says that is still downloading it. But oh my god its taking long!Still.
My BF4 game update failed to download, and I dont know how to add it again to download list. Will it be avaiable when I try to start the game?Im still too lost at all these new features and system!
