How do I enable game content on PS3?

If, however, when you try to play the content and a message appears indicating that system activation is required, you must manually activate your system. Sign in to PSNSM on your PS3\u2122 system. Select (PlayStation\u2122Network) > (Account Management) > (System Activation), and then follow the on-screen instructions.

How do you access downloads on PS3?

Select (PS Store) > [Start] > (Options) > [Download List]. Select the game that you want to download, and then select [Download]. Some games cannot be copied from the PS3\u2122 system to your system, or cannot be downloaded using your system.

Can you still download content on PS3?

Unlike the PS4 and PS5, buying games on the PS3 has a number of inconvenient restrictions: You must buy games via the console itself, not a Web browser. You must preload the funds you need into your account. You can download a game only from its store listing, not via a Web browser or app.
