Can I copy all of my saves files from my old PS3 account to my new account by copying the entire save utility? Or do I have to copy each save file individually?

If you have an external USB drive (or a large enough flash drive) you can use the backup utility to back up the entire PS3, otherwise I believe you have to backup each save individually.

Are you talking about the user accounts from the XMB? I think you'll have to copy them over individually.

Individually I believe.

Some games, Warhawk, Burnout, Devil May Cry 4, etc are tied to the PSN name, so they can't be moved, but others do them one by one just to be safe.

Thanks everyone. I will just do them individually, this way I can pick and choose which saves come over.

Are you still getting a new HDD?

Might want to hold off till you get the new HDD and back up utility the stuff you want.

I will eventually get a new HDD for the PS3, but for now I think I am going to hold off a few months until I really need to get one due to no extra $$$$$$.
