Update on PSN Password Reset Process

We temporarily took down the PSN and Qriocity password reset page. Contrary to some reports, there was no hack involved. In the process of resetting of passwords there was a URL exploit that we have subsequently fixed.

Consumers who haven’t reset their passwords for PSN are still encouraged to do so directly on their PS3. Otherwise, they can continue to do so via the website as soon as we bring that site back up.

    Hmm I see, well I guess thats kind of cool.

  • @ 6. I’m not spamming the system. I said “first” and then proceeded with a comment relevant to the topic. Therefore, do not suggest a ban of my account if I am not causing any problems. Mr. Seybold, is there any update as to the status of the PSN password reset? People should have changed their passwords earlier when the service was rolled out again.

  • Basically any yahoo with a blog can post rumours and pass them off as fact with no recourse whatsoever. Don’t believe everything you read, esp on the internet!

  • yea, is there still people in the us whom need to reset there passwords?

  • ARGGG! DARN IT I WAS WRONG! SONY! WHAT IS GOING ON! (pihew) sorry SONY but that

  • @gy nasty,you sound like a little ungrateful nerd. Go trade it, trust me you won’t be missed.

    I is always CAPITALIZED, you really dumb down your post trying to sound so smart yet forgetting what they taught you in 1st grade. So Sony I was hoping you could tell me why the overall ranking on the Socom 4 website doesn’t match the overall ranking on the game leader boards? I’m 598 on the website and 1,914 on the game leader boards. Which is correct? Also funny thing, I tried to look up the players that are in the top 10 on the game leader boards but couldn’t find them on the website leader boards.

    Are you going to allow the people that play 1-3 games to get a good K/D so they show up in the top ten stay there? Shouldn’t the ranking system be more than just about someones K/D? Some guys are in the top ten because they played 1 game and went 9-1 so they have a spot in the top ten. Then you got people that have thousands of kills, a good K/D and good win percentage that should have the top spots. What gives? On a side note thanks for getting the Network back up, it’s nice to be able to play games with friends and family that are out of state and that I don’t see often enough.

  • 28 days btw

  • 51st !! AWESOME

  • Open to everyone, but don’t be a jerk.

  • Jerometheknight

    Please get the Playstation Store back up, thanks!

  • zaqwxsecdrvftbgyhnumjikkolp is what i should have made my user name but….. too late now, eric out!!!

  • IF Sony cant get there act together with the PS Store then we are going to boycott The PS3 system. There is no point in waiting for somthing, even when you constantly lie to you consumers. so far there are 58 ppl ready go turn there Ps3 back in and the number will rise. We as a ppl are tired of waitin listing to ur lies giving us crapy games just to shut us up and be content. LOL o no turn on the PS store and u wouldnt have no more problems but u keep talkin and updating stupid games over n over n over again wats is ya’lls problem really. SONY SUCKS BOYCOTT TIME. TURN ON THE PS STORE OR YOUR GONNA DECLINE IN SELL DRAMATICALLY

  • @ Zoryu_of_Setsuna

    If you had read my comment correctly you would have noticed that the orgininal comment is from May16th, not from today. (comment 59)

    If you had read down just a bit further (comment 62) you would have noticed I took the time to explained it in greater detail.

    This is the second time you have tried to make me look foolish on these blogs and I’d advise you to cease addressing me in any way.

    i created an account back in 2008, the one im using now. It was on my first ps3. That system got stolen and i didnt have a ps3 til about june of 2010. I used the same account when I purchased the playstation im using now. You don’t ever lose your account unless you personally have it closed. I’m not quite sure how to go about doing that but anyways ive had this account on 2 ps3s for over 3 years. just saying.

  • OK!! no problem, just make sure to do it fast

  • I KNOW THIS IS OFF TOPIC, BUT WHY DO YOU GET TO PICK WHATS IN THE WELCOME BACK PROGRAM DURING THE PSN WAS DOWN. WHY CANT THE PLAYERS IN THE GAME PICK WHAT KIND OF GAMES WE INSTEAD. WHAT IF THOSE PEOPLE ALREADY HAVE THOSE GAMES, OR WE DON’T EVEN LIKE THE GAMES OF CHOICE??? IF THEY ARE POPULAR GAMES (AND IM GUESSING THEY ARE) THEY’RE ABOUT 50$ EACH AND WE CAN PICK TWO OF THEM RIGHT? SO WHY CANT YOU GUYS JUST GIVE US 100$ WORTH OF PSN CREDIT AND THEN WE CAN PICK WHAT EVER WE LIKE?!?!?!?! HONESTLY I LIKE THAT YOU GUYS ARE DOING THIS, BUT IT JUST SOUNDS LIKE YOUR TRYING TO SAVE MONEY BY LIMITING US TO GAMES YOU GUYS ALREADY HAVE. IF IT WAS REALLY A WELCOME BACK PROGRAM IT WOULD BE A MORE VARIETY OF GAMES OUT THERE. I AM AND STILL WILL BE A PS3 FAN JUST EXPRESSING WHAT I THINK. =/

    @GYNASTY (179)
    You go right ahead and boycott the ps3, it’s your loss. I’m sure there are MILLIONS of people that are content with waiting patiently for the store to come back online. We can live without it for a little while, just be happy the network is up and running so you can actually play online and stuff. Quit whining about the store and grow up. Your threats really wont affect Sony, it’s not going to make them work any faster than they can. You have to understand that there is a lot of work going into the restoration of all the PSN services and they are doing their best to bring them up safely and efficiently. What good is putting the store back online when its not complete yet, it’ll have so many bugs and you’ll be right back on here [DELETED] about that. So chill, play some games, go outside, have fun. Live life.

  • I logged out of us.playstation.com and i have rest my password and it wont let me log in :(

  • @GY_NASTY: That was the funniest comment I’ve ever seen. Thanks for the entertainment during these dark times.

  • @192
    ur right and i have been thinking about this since they announced the welcome back program

  • everyone oughta just be glad that sony is even offering anything free, as they dont realy have to but are trying to make amends for lost/downtime, people here should be glad that they have even took the time to get things going at all, but no you have all theese whiners going when are we gonna get our free stuff, like i said just be glad they are even offering anyhting and quit crying about it!!

  • its not letting me log in the website

  • @norcalbwlr, It does state on your right hand side BEFORE you post, No using the comment section to be “first”. I assumed that meant putting “first” on the first post, which you clearly did not follow the rules, or did not take the time to read the rules. And here I am not following the rules either. On topic: I hope this isnt going to be a ongoing thing, PSN up, PSN down.
