    Can't access anything off of flash device on PS3, any idea what I'm doing wrong?


    I move what I want from my PC to my flash device, put the flash device in my PS3. Both in the main PS3 menu before you put in a game and once in MLB09, I choose the option to access stuff off the flash device and it says stuff like "there are no tracks" if its music, or "there are no items" or something like that if its rosters. Has anyone else encountered this ever, and how did you fix it? Would love to preview Knight's classic rosters before its finished. Thanks.

    Are you verifying the copy took place? Have you looked at the flash drive and its contents on your PC using Windows Explorer to make sure the contents are correct?

    Are you copying the correct file? I know for Knights roster you dl his Classic15 file, unzip it so you have the PS3 folder on your desktop and then just drag that to your drive.

    Make sure you are looking under Game selection on PS dashboard for storage device. It should show the flash drive. Click that and you should see the name of the file - Classic15.

      Oh okay, so I stop opening the file when I have the folder that says PS3. I was opening it the whole way thinking that the PS3 couldn't access it if it was still in a folder. What about music? Any idea why it might be saying "there are no tracks"? Thanks for the game info though that was the part I was more concerned with.

        I am not sure about the music thing as I don't put music on the PS3...

          I think if you put your music in a folder titled "AUDIO" and then if you put it on your ps3 and it says "there are no tracks" then click the triangle button and click on show all folders and it should show up. It's something like that because I had the same problem when I tried music the first time.

          ...and hate that I'm loved for the exact same reasons."

            Yes, I believe in order for the PS3 to view folders you have to copy the actual "PS3" folder onto it. Should fix you right up.
