    Can't find your school in game -- Dev Response

    If you are having trouble finding your school in game:
    If you are searching for your team in game using your X360 Gamertag or PSN Network ID as "Author", and your team is not showing up, your team was probably created using your EA Web Persona, instead of your X360 or PS3 Persona.

    To find your team:
    You should still be able to find your team by searching by the other fields.

    1. In the game, select "TeamBuilder", then "Search Schools"
    2. Set the "Author" field to "Any"
    3. Go to the "School Name/Nickname" field and enter your school name
    4. Select "Search"
    5. In the search results, find and download your team

    If you have created a very common team, it may be difficult to find your team with the above steps. You can still find your team by temporarily renaming it, fixing the name, and then updating the school.

    1. In the web app, edit your team and change your team name to something unique.
    ---1.b For example use "My App State" instead of "Appalachian State"
    2. Wait. It may take a few minutes for your changes to get updated in the search table.
    3. Use the instructions above to find and download the team with the new name
    4. On the web, edit your team, and change the name back
    5. In the game, go to the "Manage My Schools" menu.
    6. Find your school, select it, and select "Check for School Update"
    7. Select the school again, and select "Update and Save School"

    IMPORTANT NOTE: We are currently working on a fix that will let you migrate a team from your Web persona to a PS3 or X360 persona. If you currently have a team that you want to move to a different persona, you can either recreate it manually, or wait until we apply this fix.

      I think the initial idea was to use Web as a go between for people who their teams available for both Xbox360 and PS3 users and it just blew up in their face.

        As far as I remember they did. Adam was on here a few weeks ago and brought up the issue with XBox/Microsoft and their restrictions. He stated that they were trying to work around it or work on it. It's mainly a Microsoft issue. This was one of the reasons why I decided to go with the PS3 version over the 360 one. EA isn't perfect, but I don't see how this is completely their fault. My two cents.

          i still cant even figure this out. they say there is a way to change your EASW persona to an xbox 360 one, so i followed their steps. i went to easw, signed in, went to edit bio, new persona, and entered in my xboxlive gt and it says "sorry we cannot find any information on your gamertag"

          seriously wtf

            well ea developers cant notify customers on a forum site. they needed to advertise this in teambuilder so ALL the customers could see it. and of course, they didnt. so it really is their fault.

              Fair enough, that is a valid point. As with anything, if their are restrictions they should be put out there for all to see. You're right.

                well thanks. I mean i can understand that they can make mistakes, but just let me know before i waste 2 weeks of my life making these teams. nothing is really that time consuming except for the rosters, which i really really dont feel like doing again.

                            I shouldn't have to be patient to make something I pay $60 for to work. I will not be picking up NCAA 10 this season. EA has recieved my $$ for every NCAA since 93 and now I am too disappointed.
                            Gaming hard since 1988

                            I have won like 25 Super Bowls in Madden so I am kinda a big deal.
