Restart your PC4<\/h2>\n

You have to restart your ps4 to get rid of this problem. Firstly, shut down your system, take off all the plugs from the ps4 console and wait for some time. Then, after waiting for some time, you need to plug in again into the system and then restart the device. See if the issue is solved or not, if not, try the next method.<\/p>\n

Note the error code<\/h2>\n

Once, you see the error in front of you, the next thing that you need to do is to jot down the error code and then goggle it to find the reason behind it. Once you find the reason behind it, follow the steps given therein to get rid of the issue.<\/p>\n

Use Safe Mode<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Press the\u00a0Power<\/strong>button to turn off your PS4. The indicator of the device will blink for a moment. When the indicator is off, the device is turned off successfully.<\/li>\n
  2. Press the\u00a0Power<\/strong>button and you can hear one beep. Don\u2019t release the button. Just hold it for about 7 seconds and you can hear the other beep. Then, you can release the button.<\/li>\n
  3. Connect the DualShock4 controller with the USB cable and press the\u00a0PS<\/strong>button on the controller.<\/li>\n
  4. Select option 5:\u00a0Rebuild Database<\/strong>. Then, you can scan the disc ad create a new database for all the content. That is, all data on it will be re-organized.<\/li>\n
  5. However, if the\u00a0Rebuild Database<\/strong>feature doesn\u2019t work, you can then use option 7:\u00a0Initialize PS4 (Reinstall System Software)<\/strong>\u00a0to have a try.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    After you have initialised PS4, the next thing that you need to do is to go the official site of the PlayStation and download the best version of it from it.<\/p>\n
