Had to re-accept terms and conditions on master account. Subaccount cant play.

This is more of a question, not a statement.

Today my PS3 told me this:

"You must ask the holder of the associated master account to help you sign in."

So naturally, I go to the amster account, log in, and sure enough, there's a revised terms and conditions that I must now accept. I accept. Then I update my system just to be safe. Upon returning, it says the same message as above whenever I try to log in to my sub account. If I go to the master account PlayStation@Network button/tab/thing, there's settings I can change for that specific account, but there's no button for Sub-Accounts. I know that the account I checked that on was the master account because it was the only account able to actually log in to PSN.

So what can I do? I'm contemplating backing up my PS3 and just creating a new master account. But I don't know if I can use the PSN-ID that I use on the stuck sub account on a new master account. If there's an easier solution someone could enlighten me to, I would be highly appreciative.

Hmm. I guess it did turn out to be more of a statement, didn't it?

Well, I know that it's possible to delete the user that has the master account, but I fear that all other sub account users will be removed too, subsequently removing all your save game data. That's why I proposed backing up everything first, then removing all the user accounts. I'm not sure whether or not this would require me to make an entirely new PSN ID account, which I'm not willing to do.

I'm having the exact same problem. it is frustrating

I was having the same problem too. I called customer service and there was a message saying the Playstation Network is down. So, hopefully it will resolve itself when the network is back up and running.yomesbucs

any news, mis amigos?

Your going to most likely wait for ANOTHER update to fix this.

If this problem is as widespread as I'm predicting it is, then hopefully there will be an update soon.

The dam thing gave me lag. Before this re accept crap my online games were running fine now its all **** up.

YAY!!!! I just got my sub account to work again!!!! It turns out that it was linked with the master account on my very first ps3 and i happened to remember my old password and sign-in id for it. I'M SOOOOOOOOOO HAPPY!!!!!

But when you're creating a new account, you must select "use an existing account" and not "create new user".

Ah. Ok I can try that. The only thing I'm wary about is whether or not my save data from my original user will carry over, which I'm pretty sure it won't. If I create a new user and accept the ToS again, will my original sub account work again?

Well that method didn't work. I still don't know what I should do. I'll probably end up calling Playstation technical support. And I don't want to sound racist, but if I get another Indian tech support guy I will hang up and re-call them until I get a fluent English-speaker.

Wanted to know:

Is it possible to back up all game saves and move them to another user on a PS3?

Eventually I'm going to want to have an account with master-privileges. And I understand that would involve making a new account as 18+ years old.

I don't REALLY mind letting all my trophies go, but I don't want to lose all my game data from my original user sub-account. Therefore, I wanted to know if I could transfer/copy game saves (for example, LBP2 costumes, level progress, created levels, etc.) on to a different user.

Hi guys can someone please tell me where I can Re-Accept the "Terms Of Use".

Thanks
