Sign in and out on the PSN network: how it works
You can log in and out of the PSN network at any time. By registering, you as a Playstation Plus member have access to the online mode of your games. You can also visit the Playstation Store and communicate with your friends.
Registration in the PSN network
- After starting your PS4, log in with your user account as usual.
- Now press on the directional pad or with your left stick upwards.
- Then navigate all the way to the right to the menu item "Settings".
- Then press "PSN" and select "Register". If you are already registered, go to the next step (5). Otherwise you have to enter your login information such as ID and password here.
- Now all you have to do is activate your PS4 as the primary PS4 system. After this you will be asked immediately after the 4th step. Answer the question with "Yes".
