Thanks, it was short and to the point. Sometimes when we search for videos like that, people they try to tell their life stories for 15 minutes before giving you a simple demonstration.
You are an amazing person. Short and sweet video, straight to the point. My favorite aspect is how you read the other options. I don’t know how to explain it, but keep it up.
So, after data transfering my PS4 Games and Data to my PS5, is it then fully safe to initialize the PS4? (Want to double check since I'm gonna be selling my PS4 soon and I don't want to make any mistakes to my data.)
It didn't. I just transferred everything to the PS5, and initized the PS4. Everything on the 5 was alright and my brother is selling the 4. (Even though nobody is buying it...)
@@donew1thita11 he has like a wii or wii u im not too sure and he has another one that broke down recently, it was an xbox, I think it was a 360 but idk, he also likes spending time with me and since i was getting a ps5 anyways i just gave him the ps4.
I am updating to ps5 (hopefully) today and want to give away my ps4 once I’m happy with the new console. Thank you for this concise explanation of how to de initialise the old console. Much appreciated.😊
So I just got a ps5 and want to sell my ps4 but if I factory reset my ps4 does this mean my whole account will be deleted? So like that I won’t be able to play with it on my ps5?
not sure if you will answer this, but if i were to factory reset my ps4 before selling, and i try to sign onto my new ps5 console will i still be able to log into my psn account?
Nice and super quick straight to the point! Thank you, very helpful. A definite like (👍🏾) and just because you're so straight to the point I'll subscribe too 😀
Thanks dude, was selling my ps4 because I upgraded. Definitely don’t want no corpo rat knowing how I spend my Eddies it would be a gonk idea to sell it with all my data
I did exactly what you said. But now I’m trying to get back into ps4 ! It says to Push the ps button on my dual shock controller! But it won’t connect to controller now! Why???? I reset controller and also unplugged the ps4 for 20 minutes and still won’t connect to my controller. I used a different usb cord. Still no luck! I tried my other controller ! Same thing!!! Please HELP!!!!!
Does psn account has any connection on this? Like, I thought I have to delete my psn account as well before selling my ps4. Or maybe just full factory reset is already protected enough
If u reset ur ps4 will u lose ur games on ps5 after transferring tho bc I'm thinking of reseting my ps4 bc I have ps5 but I'm worried I might lose the data on my ps5 considering it's from the ps4
Can I still do this without a password or signing into PlayStation network? My dad made my account and won’t help me recover the password… it’s really frustrating because I’d like to fully reset it so I can continue playing with a new account.
So I’m not selling my p4, but I’m giving it to my little sister . She can have all the game but I want all my saved data . Is there a way to do that ??
Can i recover all of my data to my ps5 if i do this before i buy mu ps5? Because i need to sell my ps4 to buy the ps5 i still want to have my old saves games and trophies???
I bought second hand and the previous PS4 owner's user profile was still there when I bought it, so I cannot deactivate his account and he can no longer be contacted. When I do a Full initialization / reset, will it remove also his user profile on the console and automatically deactivate his account on the system?
Ive heard that a basic factory reset will still leave some account info on the system if you had a PS Plus account? Is this true & how do you remove all of that too?
I have a question, I have a PS4 and a PS5 with the same account, but I want to keep the account only on my PS5, now if I set back the PS4 to ‘factory settings’ will it delete the account on the PS5 too? would be cool if anyone could help.
Once I get to initialize, it says I need to log into two accounts on it. One is mine, but one is not and I can't log into it. How do I complete the process without having access to that account?
I had to fully rewrite mine because it wasn’t showing the screen but when you do that can you sign back in to your account of the email and password or no
Who else watching this becuase you're going to get a next gen console and want to sell your old one

I agree 👍
Thanks for this,i just sold my PS4 so i could grab some games for my PS5,it felt kind of bittersweet but i had no use for it anymore anyway
So all your data on the ps5s still there?
@@sneakysandle I’m trying to find out the same thing lol
@@jayyardee6328 yeah it stays on there
My wife got me a PS5 you're right I have no use for the PS4 anymore but I'm keeping the games
Great video thank you for not holding me hostage for 20 mins , keep up the good work
Great video right to the point no messing around! Keep up the good work.
Bro thanks for getting straight to the point and making it easy
I saw the 11+ minute video on my feed and it seriously pissed me off. Thanks for keeping it simple.
thanks im surprised factory resetting takes that long tho i thought it was simple
I already have a ps5 where i play on and my data is on but if i factory reset my ps4 will it still be ok my ps5 my data ?
Really good question I’m wondering the same
Anyone else here because you about to sell this legend.
So, after data transfering my PS4 Games and Data to my PS5, is it then fully safe to initialize the PS4? (Want to double check since I'm gonna be selling my PS4 soon and I don't want to make any mistakes to my data.)
Did it affect it?
It didn't. I just transferred everything to the PS5, and initized the PS4. Everything on the 5 was alright and my brother is selling the 4. (Even though nobody is buying it...)
Do you do full or quick
Thank you for being thorough, yet brief
I did the same thing and the entire process took over 8 hrs. Had a buyer waiting til the next day.
Me to
Thanks man, I'm exchanging the PS4 for a PS5. Short and right to the point.
So it won’t effect your ps5 since ur deleting all ur data?
yeah just make sure it’s already transferred on cloud or saved on hard drive
Im giving my ps4 to my cousin because he needs a somewhat newer console, i just got all my data to the ps5, thank you for the help!
What does he have

After you did this initialisation did you keep all your data on your ps5? Did anything change on there
@@hoganscastle1023 I already had switched my data to ps5 then deleted ps4 data so it did stay
@@RedNarrowBird nothing changed all good
This video helped me reset my PS4 when it was bugging out thank you so much for this video easy and straight to the point 😁
was your PS4 also not reading applications correctly, and crashing in the middle of one that it can sort of read?
@Cast-Carnival my ps4 was doing that 2 hopefully this will work
Thanks dude short, simple, to the point

Super helpful. I'm buying a PS4 from a work colleague, and wanted to know how to do this.
If I do that will I still be able to connect my account to another ps4 or ps5 console and have all my data?
Did u find out yet cause I’m reselling to get a ps5
So I just got a ps5 and want to sell my ps4 but if I factory reset my ps4 does this mean my whole account will be deleted? So like that I won’t be able to play with it on my ps5?
not sure if you will answer this, but if i were to factory reset my ps4 before selling, and i try to sign onto my new ps5 console will i still be able to log into my psn account?
Yes ofc
Awesome quick video. Wish all help videos were like this!
You will still have your data and games when you log in on your ps4 right?
very easy, quick, informative, and to the point thank you
Will the account deletion affect the ps5 if you do this?

Thank you very much for your outstanding video, I'm 82 and I needed it. :)
If you have a ps5 or another ps4 and you log in the same account that you deleted will all the stuff stay or no?
If I delete all my data from my ps4 will I have my users still on ps5 ?
No
Nah
Can't sign in don't remember associated email..will this fix that I can just start over?
Simple and to the point. Thanks!
Does it restore the PS to the OG system or does it maintain all the PS updates that you've gotten over the years?
Does it reset the software version as well or keep it current??
Thanks PS4 for a 9 year run easily top 3 console of all time😢
I did this when I sold my ps4. I had a fortnite account with all the og skins. Will I be able to sign into the account on my pc?
Does this affect if you got ps5 and did the cross over
Excellent. TY so much. Any idea how long the entire wipe will take?
thanks for the help. im trying to sell my old ps4 and this was a big help!
So after you fully wipe everything and start it back up again, does it show the setup system like select Wi-Fi and create account etc
Yes i think so
@@-.-8337 I think so? are you 100% now after 2 months have pass 😅
Great on how to mate.
Very informative straight forward tyvm.
Just wondering this won’t delete all my uncles accounts because he gave me this so I could sell it but his accounts are still there. Thanks.
Thanks dude, was selling my ps4 because I upgraded. Definitely don’t want no corpo rat knowing how I spend my Eddies it would be a gonk idea to sell it with all my data
THANK YOU MISTER I LIKED 😂❤
Will initializing in safe mode also deactivate all accounts?
Great video , thank You so much . We’re giving our PS4 as a gift and this was what I needed 👍
Thanks man quick and easy to follow
Will this work even after you've put a 2tb hard drive in it?
One question, a guy gave me his ps4 if and his profile is still on that ps4, so if i do this will he loose his account and purchases?
So say I bought a ps5 and I want to sell my ps4 will it reset everything
If you do this and you have your data from ps4 and you transfer the existing data from ps4 to ps5 will your ps5 still have the data from the ps4?.
I did exactly what you said. But now I’m trying to get back into ps4 ! It says to
Push the ps button on my dual shock controller! But it won’t connect to controller now! Why????
I reset controller and also unplugged the ps4 for 20 minutes and still won’t connect to my controller. I used a different usb cord. Still no luck!
I tried my other controller ! Same thing!!!
Please HELP!!!!!
Does psn account has any connection on this? Like, I thought I have to delete my psn account as well before selling my ps4. Or maybe just full factory reset is already protected enough
The initialization shouldn’t touch your PSN account. I was literally playing on my PS5 while wiping my PS4 and I had no issues.
If u reset ur ps4 will u lose ur games on ps5 after transferring tho bc I'm thinking of reseting my ps4 bc I have ps5 but I'm worried I might lose the data on my ps5 considering it's from the ps4
It won’t. And you can transfer all your PS4 data to your PS5 when you first set up your PS5. It ain’t that deep.
I want to ask if in the middle of full reset power goes off does it damage the system software?
Yes
Nice short and sweet! worked amazing! Thank you!
Can I still do this without a password or signing into PlayStation network? My dad made my account and won’t help me recover the password… it’s really frustrating because I’d like to fully reset it so I can continue playing with a new account.
If i do factory reset on my ps4 pro would i lost all the game that i bought from the psn store?
So I’m not selling my p4, but I’m giving it to my little sister . She can have all the game but I want all my saved data . Is there a way to do that ??
Will this delete your account if you have another playstation
If i have converted my ps4 account over to my ps5 and wanna sell my ps4 and delete the data will i retain that same data on my ps5
When I delete it all, will it give me back the same storage?
Thank you very much, quick and to the point, new sub
This guy helped me a lot and thanks for that
What if i have already logged into my account on ps5 will it delete on that aswell?
Good video. Had to reset my uncles ps4. Couldn't remember his password 😮
Can i recover all of my data to my ps5 if i do this before i buy mu ps5? Because i need to sell my ps4 to buy the ps5 i still want to have my old saves games and trophies???
Thank you. This safed me some time!
Is the system software will still the same?
So how do you get all your data back on another ps4 after selling the other one?
Awesome video and the information given was on the money. Thanks sir 🙂
If i do this will my account on my ps5 get deleted aswell?
I wanna just use my ps5 will my psn account delete and all my data be deleted if my ps4 account is deleted?
What a perfect video. Kudos to you 🙏
Does this delete account? Because I want to sell ps4 but i want to keep the same account on ps5?
As long as you remember you PlayStation account login. You should be fine.
I bought second hand and the previous PS4 owner's user profile was still there when I bought it, so I cannot deactivate his account and he can no longer be contacted.

yes, it will have you log in with your playstation account info

Thank you. This helped a ton. Selling the ps 4 so I can some credit for ps5 so I can helldivers 2
It doesn't delete your account right?
No it doesn't delete your PSN account.
If I do full can I stil play on my ps5 with the same account on 4?
Once I get to initialize, it says I need to log into two accounts on it. One is mine, but one is not and I can't log into it. How do I complete the process without having access to that account?
Now when i sell the console to other person can he still play some of the games that i have purchased?
Does this delete from your ps5 or just ps4
Should just be ps4
I had to fully rewrite mine because it wasn’t showing the screen but when you do that can you sign back in to your account of the email and password or no
Yes you can
I am selling my ps4 but can’t see screen due to HDMI issues. How did you erase the account without seeing screen? Plz n thx
@@okalibre3951 you will need a new HDMI cable, if you can't see the screen you obviously wont be able to do anything
