This video was abit long so if your reading this just connect cable go to settings on ps5 *make sure they are both connected to the same wifi* then once on settings go to system then data transfer and click continue and the rest is history (use common sense)
@@hitchy0755 Mine was 99+ for 450 so i plugged in the lan cable but nothing changed so i had to stop it and restart with the lan cable plugged in and boom down to an hour and change.
@@LiGhTfOoT_ thank you for you reply, it doesnt ask you to verify but it does give you the option to put a verify code, forgot my old email pass long ago your reply swept some anxiety away :>
Cheers for the quick and clear info. I am not a big gamer, so was a bit lost until watching this info video. Thanks again, took 2 minutes to download the stuff stored on my ps4
Thank you so much. This was so much simpler. I’ve been trying to do it wirelessly and not only would’ve taken 24 hours but I kept getting an error. I was even going to come & ask you what I should do for the ones that are greyed out but he even answered that lol Hopefully I don’t get an error message this time
If you guys are doing exactly what he does, there shouldn’t be an issue. Buy the latest Ethernet cable CAT5 and up works fine. Both PS4 and PS5 are connected “together” with the Ethernet cable, connect both consoles to the same Wifi, start system data transfer, follow the prompts. You must be logged into the Same PSN on both consoles. You must update firmware’s on both. You must not turn off the power to both consoles (no sleep/Energy mode allowed)
Hello can you help me? When i try to transfer my data to ps5 they said there's nothing can be transferred data use another console select console whith data you can transfer to ps5
So that still be the ps4 version on ps5 console right? How do I have my ps4 version data and transfer to a same game but ps5 version? Or I just have to restart the whole on ps5 version?
It never ended up recognizing it. I had to redo it over wifi. I know the cord works though bc I use it with my pc. The transfer process was difficult for me lol
So I'm confused the PS5 is on the ethernet but the PS4 is on Wi-Fi when did be faster if the PS4 would be using the ethernet cable to transfer the data
If you are NORMAL human being with terrible Internet, then do not prioritise your WiFi over your LAN. It just makes you go through the whole process only for it not to complete the transfer. DO NOT USE WiFi unless you live in Silicon Valley.
So... what happens if you have BOTH consoles connected to your internet hub through ethernet cable?!? Everyone talks about wifi... but I plan to have both consoles wired to the same internet hub... will this work the same as being direct connected?!? I mean, both consoles will be connected to the same Playstation account except they are both using wired internet vs wifi... so it should technically be the same as connecting them both together, right?!?
I’m not sure if this will work for me or not. My husband and I have separate psn accounts. The ps4 NEVER lets me login with mine. Always gives me the new account screen. Even after he logged out AND deactivated the ps4 as his primary console. So I have game saves I’d really love to transfer over to ps5 but I’m getting thwarted every way I try. I tried a USB but ps4 wants me to login for that too. It’s like you can’t transfer anything if your not logged into PSN but ps4 doesn’t allow multiple accounts. My god, it was so much easier with memory cards back in the day.
You blug the ethernet cable and you didn’t choose ethernet cable transfer option...???? I want to use the ethernet cable not the wifi ..they give you both option..should you choose the Ethernet option instead..??
@@owensarah7460 yo, I didn’t plug it in and I think it’s for the best not to, I ran the transfer overnight (so I left on both consoles) and it’s all good now; so personally I wouldn’t take the risk
FOR PEOPLE OF THE FUTURE : I also had this thought and went the other (more daring) route. I plugged the lan cable into my ps4 and connected it to my ps5 and the ps5 recognized the lan cable and the download speeds are definitely going faster now
Why the Ps5 not fully transfer the data in games? I transferred 2k23 Golf and my current golfer on PS4 was not transferred . It took me to a new golfer without my name. I am not overly impressed with the PS5. I really don't notice much difference in graphics.
Does not work. After the PS5 recognizes the PS4 and I continue there is no list of games to transfer. It only shows two options Data Transfer ot games and apps both of those are all or nothing? I cannot just transfer just one game etc?
@@crofty_92 you can either plug one into each(provided they are both connected to the same router) or you can connect one Ethernet cable from the ps5 to the Ps4
I had to stop the transfer because i needed to go somewhere but it now its grayed out even tho tales of zesteria would not play the save data im trying to get tales of arise to work on it as we speak Also whatever you do wait until its really done with getting version 1.05 to get on there i didnt qait because the ps5 said ready to play im now waiting for that and the add ons to be downloaded
I keep trying this and it says at the end of it there is some data that can’t be transferred from my ps4 and it just deletes the transfer and makes me start over what do I do?
Why do you have the ethernet cable plugged in to the ps5 and nothing on the other end? Surely the way you are doing it is "wireless" I would think to do it via the cable you'd have to ug the other end in the ps4
Mine said 99 plus hours for games 5 hours for saved games what the hell are you sure your supposed connect with wifi not lan I have the lan cables and wifi dongles both connected
i hate this. i wish there is another way bc my playstation 4 power button is broken and i went to get it fixed and they said i need a whole new ps4. so i can’t transfer my data to my ps5 smh🤦🏾

Thx my guy! Saved me a lot of time!
This was a bit much to read😂 easier to watch the video my guy.
@@BlakeMundt Okay whatever ur more comfortable with
man of culture
From 24h download time to 30 min, worked great
A year late but i just fid a 300gb transfer in 40 mins instead of 99+ hours

It's worth it to note that you DO NOT need 2 tvs to do this. Just switch between the 2 hdmi connections on your TV.
Does signing into the ps5 ask you for verification?
@@guildarts381 if I remember correctly, there was a step for two Factor authentication, but I believe it was optional

Can I transfer PS4 to PS5 using external HD ?
@@willowflowerchild that’s what worked for me! I used one for it and it worked fine :)

this helped me immensely, i wasnt sure how to do this and yours was the first video i clicked on, so it helped a huge amount, thank you
Mine says 99 hrs to download. I got so annoyed that shut everything off. I did this process , simple instructions but none of my game transferred.
You went a bit fast for me and assumed PS5 familiarity on the part of the viewer but I got there in the end thank you.👍
Did you connect the other end of the pan cable to your ps4??? Looks like you just left it unplugged
Thanks for your help because I got my PS five today at midnight Christmas day
THANK YOU SO MUCH THIS HELPED ❤️❤️
But what type of ethernet cable should I use??
this worked perfect for me and super fast, thanks a bunch!!
Do you have to restart the transfer once you connect the Lan cable? Or can you just connect it in the middle of transfer and it’ll work?
Hello can you help me? When i try to transfer my data to ps5 they said there's nothing can be transferred data use another console select console whith data you can transfer to ps5
Can I put the ps5 on rest mode or do I have to leave both consoles on
Do i need 2 monitor?!
What about transferring data from PS4 to PS5 with different accounts? Is it possible?
Quick question When transferring games does it use up data or is just storage?. I ain't got unlimited wifi that's why 😢
So that still be the ps4 version on ps5 console right? How do I have my ps4 version data and transfer to a same game but ps5 version? Or I just have to restart the whole on ps5 version?
I'm plugging in my ethernet cord but it's not recognizing that it's plugged in? I tried to plug it in while it was already transferring. Is that why?
did you ever figure out if that’s the reason why
It never ended up recognizing it. I had to redo it over wifi. I know the cord works though bc I use it with my pc. The transfer process was difficult for me lol
This was so overly complicated compared to Xbox I hate it. Thanks so much
What about downloaded game? Will they transfer no problem?
cable LAN used type Stright Cable or Cross Cable ?
Is there any ways to data transfer if your ps4 button doesn’t work or broken
Does this method take less data from my network service?
Quick and easy, many thanks 👍🏻
Can you plug in the lan cable half way through the transfer
That’s what I’m wondering. Did you ever figure it out?
So is there a way to start the transfer over because i already started it
Couldn’t figure out why my data wasn’t transferring and every video I looked at didn’t help until I found this one. Thank you so much for the help
So I'm confused the PS5 is on the ethernet but the PS4 is on Wi-Fi when did be faster if the PS4 would be using the ethernet cable to transfer the data
If you are NORMAL human being with terrible Internet, then do not prioritise your WiFi over your LAN. It just makes you go through the whole process only for it not to complete the transfer. DO NOT USE WiFi unless you live in Silicon Valley.
So how do I do it I have a lan cable but it’s connected to both for the data transfer because they both need to be on the same network
Thanks you , worked great . Much appreciated
When you sign into ps5 does it ask you to verify? Or does it just sign you in?
Do they both have the same acc
If you transfer data are all games ps4 version or they become ps5 version ?
Your a life saver dude 😢
ty man, nice to see the whole process
do i need to have 2 monitors to do this ?
Hi what type to Ethernet cable you recommend
Bro thank you so much man
Do you need a lan cable because I don’t have one and it’s taking so so long?!?
Yes, transferring your data from your old PS4 to a PS5 is a helluva lot faster using a LAN/Ethernet cable rather than doing it via Wi-Fi
Does this transfer accounts too?
So... what happens if you have BOTH consoles connected to your internet hub through ethernet cable?!? Everyone talks about wifi... but I plan to have both consoles wired to the same internet hub... will this work the same as being direct connected?!? I mean, both consoles will be connected to the same Playstation account except they are both using wired internet vs wifi... so it should technically be the same as connecting them both together, right?!?
We have 300mbps download speed by your method, took 8 hours.
No. I don't think it's the same.
Did it work
I was transferring my data and I accidentally turned off my ps4 can something happen to my ps5 because of that
Dumb question, after my PS5 restarts and the PS4 data is downloading, can I put my PS5 in rest mode?
I’m not sure if this will work for me or not. My husband and I have separate psn accounts. The ps4 NEVER lets me login with mine. Always gives me the new account screen. Even after he logged out AND deactivated the ps4 as his primary console. So I have game saves I’d really love to transfer over to ps5 but I’m getting thwarted every way I try.

I want to use the ethernet cable not the wifi ..they give you both option..should you choose the Ethernet option instead..??
If same wifi network but different channel since ps4 fat only support 2.4ghz, still works?
Hey bro, I’m currently transferring data and I didn’t start it with a Ethernet cable, but I found one. Is it safe to plug it in during the transfer?
Have you figured this out yet bro? I'm wondering the same thing

Totally safe to plug in during transfer. Ps5 recognizes connection in 30 seconds or less. If not just use pause all option and resume again.
My ps5 doesnt recognize my cable is it possible that mine is not working or is too old for the system ?
Will accounts in the ps4 get transferred too?
Yes
is playstation plus required to do this??
Why the Ps5 not fully transfer the data in games? I transferred 2k23 Golf and my current golfer on PS4 was not transferred . It took me to a new golfer without my name. I am not overly impressed with the PS5. I really don't notice much difference in graphics.
Do we gotta plug a Ethernet cable into the wifi box?
Thanks!!
Can't transfer data some code comes up but the games and apps worked, any idea
what if I already started the transfer with no cable ? Can I still stop the transfer and restart it with a cable ??
I'm wondering the same please let me know if you figured it out. Thank you
@@owensarah7460 did you figure it out?
Did y’all figure it out yet ?
@@SeanGoWin i waited it out then the download failed so I just went to Walmart and bought a cable and it downloaded in like 20 mins
How do u transfer data from an extended storage device ?
Stop using on ps4. Unplug it from ps4. Plug into ps5. Tell ps5 to use it.
Can I put it in rest mode for the ps4
Does not work. After the PS5 recognizes the PS4 and I continue there is no list of games to transfer. It only shows two options Data Transfer ot games and apps both of those are all or nothing? I cannot just transfer just one game etc?
Is there any way of doing it without pressing the ps4 home button mines broken 😭
Does it work if my ps4 is in safe mode
Thank you ⭐
Do I need an Ethernet cable plugged into both or just the ps5
I need the answer to this too, did you ever work it out?
@@crofty_92 you can either plug one into each(provided they are both connected to the same router) or you can connect one Ethernet cable from the ps5 to the Ps4
How am I suppose to do this if I got to have it plugged in ps4 and ps5 but I also gotta plug it in the internet box?
Wifi
Does it transfer youre library aswell?
If you can wait 9999 hours, yes
So do I get the ps4 controller off y it’s transferring the data ?
What I'd the ps4 internet inside the console is bad?🤷♂️🤯
Can u put ps5 in rest mode y it’s transfer data
I had to stop the transfer because i needed to go somewhere but it now its grayed out even tho tales of zesteria would not play the save data im trying to get tales of arise to work on it as we speak
Also whatever you do wait until its really done with getting version 1.05 to get on there i didnt qait because the ps5 said ready to play im now waiting for that and the add ons to be downloaded
I keep trying this and it says at the end of it there is some data that can’t be transferred from my ps4 and it just deletes the transfer and makes me start over what do I do?
Ever found a solution? Having the same problem
Will the data still be on the initial ps4?
Yes, the data will still be there.
What if don’t have the ps4 is there still a way to transfer the data
The save data would have had to be uploaded to the cloud or a USB.
No way this guy called his internet connection Mr beast 😂😂
I'm going crazy here my ps4 power button does not work!!!! Is there another way to do this?
Did u find a way?
What if I can't remember the password to my Gmail...
What happen when is only one screen
It won't connect at all pls help me im so frustrated
Why do you have the ethernet cable plugged in to the ps5 and nothing on the other end? Surely the way you are doing it is "wireless" I would think to do it via the cable you'd have to ug the other end in the ps4
He said he plugged it in to the ps4 first
Mine said 99 plus hours for games 5 hours for saved games what the hell are you sure your supposed connect with wifi not lan I have the lan cables and wifi dongles both connected
It’s putting my ps4 into rest mode not restart
I don’t see data transferring only the games but I see data transferring on the ps4 that’s all idk what to do
I see it now it’s taking 99+ hours bro why
What if I just want to play online and don’t care about the data do I still need to do it
Mine ps4 doesn't say transfer
Why’s mine still say 74 hrs 😵💫
My ps4 won’t beep and now I can’t transfer data
ME TOO BRUH
Does it use data
No, it uses milk...
I don’t have Wi-Fi.. I’m hard wired… what now?
thank you
Rock and Stone! thanks
How about 4 terabytes
My ps4 not beeping bruh
Bro this got me pissed waited 3 days almost was finished today i get home from work just for it to say an error happened and it cancelles
It won't locate my ps4
Something tells me he's not good with passwords
i hate this.
i wish there is another way bc my playstation 4 power button is broken and i went to get it fixed and they said i need a whole new ps4. so i can’t transfer my data to my ps5 smh🤦🏾
You can use a usb key to transfer your data.
My Power Botton stop worked
Didn’t work.
So i need 2 Monitor or tvs to do this ?
