(PS4) Change Sub Account To Master Account

[@TheCodester1113]

UPDATED VIDEO FOR YOU ALL! (PS4) CHANGE SUB ACCOUNT TO MASTER ACCOUNT (UPDATED VIDEO AT 4K 60FPS): kzbin.info/www/bejne/bHW3k5-dqbKNbK8

[@brentfritts9385]

Please Help- Situation: I have 2 Machines and 5 Users. User 1 has set the Primary PS4 as Machine 1 and stays with them. However, On Machine 2 Users 2, 3, 4, and 5 have no + Accounts. User 1 has told everyone that it is wrong to ask him to set his Primary PS4 as Machine 2 so that Users 2-5 can share the Benefits and play as a Family (Mainly because "When you have to take away from someone else for everyone to enjoy something, its wrong.") Question: If I set up a Family Account. Will it work across 2 Machines? and can User 1 Share their + Access though the Family Options to Machine 2 (So that Users 2-5 may also have + Benefits)

[@shadowninja71693]

that option ain't there anymore, sony has updated there settings

[@TheCodester1113]

I know, if u read my other comments and seen the date of this video, you wuda read I said there has been at least 4 or 5 updates since this video and they might have moved it to another location on the system. Some people r saying it's in the parental controls now... so go there I guess..... I don't have my PS4 right now cuz I'm buying the PS4 Pro in a couple months so I cudn't tell u where exactly so I'd go with what the others were saying. Try parental controls area

[@shadowninja71693]

ps4 pro? why make another console so soon, i can tell this one is gonna be more crappy then the last one, it take way more time to program it

[@TheCodester1113]

Shadowninja71693 2 reasons... 1, Virtual Reality is supposed to be better on the more powerful system. 2, the graphics and processor speed are upgraded so PS4 games will look so much more superb than the original PS4: blog.us.playstation.com/2016/09/08/ps4-pro-the-ultimate-faq/ I can care less about 4K movies with no 4K movie drive since I download all my movies to my computer anyways... but it WILL support 4K games later on and upgrades all current PS4 game graphics and frames per second. Therefore, helping my main gamingcanbefun channel so much more. Gotta go without playing the new Battlefield 1 which is gonna suck but at least on November 10th, I'll have the PS4 Pro, Battlefield 1 and Call of Duty Infinite Warfare with the MW1 remastered included with it by that time. I'm a fan of both BF and COD. I don't prefer one of the other although I do play COD more. Thanx to my fans and subs, they help pay for my new things by just watching my videos. LOVE getting paid to make videos on youtube :D

[@shadowninja71693]

TheCodester there is something i want to know about getting paid on youtube that i was unable to get a answer for, am i able to use a pre-paid credit card to use on youtube to earn money

[@TheCodester1113]

Shadowninja71693 R u saying use it as in paying to get paid? U don't pay anything. It's like a job. U don't pay to get a job do u? lol. To answer ur question, if u go with regular google.com/adsense which is what youtube will redirect u to after u r eligible for monetization (make money off ur videos), u connect ur bank account n link ur social security number n stuff to it and u have the option to get paid by check in mail or directly to ur bank account. However, if u wanna make money off playing n recording (and video editing if u know how which I reccomend) then go apply for a network once u get so many views on ur channel. I'd say at least 300-1,000 subs minimum before u go apply for a network. Once ur in a network, ur views n money making plans will increase SO much more faster. Plus with a network, they'll pay ur earnings to ur paypal and u can get a free business paypal debit card from paypal. So when u get paid on ur youtube channel, u can literally use THAT card to go buy things. It's a mastercard debit card from paypal u can get. So yes, but idk anything about using a credit or debit card u already have without first being able to transfer the money from ur bank or paypal first. This is how I'm able to preorder the new PS4 Pro. My fans and subs r LITERALLY buying me a new PS4 by just watching my videos. lol.

My account with credit card info is the master account and i have another account with ps+ (2 accounts total) and the option doesnt op up. it just says my main account is a sub account and the other one with the info is master. its so dumb. can someone help?

[@TheCodester1113]

Orvin it IS stupid. u gotta sign into the master to transfer money to the sub account. They did this so parents (master) could give their kids (sub) money and the kids can't just take money from their parents whenever they want.

Okay so I’m new to PS4 and I was setting up my PS4 and it said I should join PS4.

Wait if u do this, let's say one account has ps plus and is sharing it on the sub account, will this stop that sharing or not?

[@TheCodester1113]

Long as u have 1 account that has PS plus, the rest of the accounts should be able to play online. As far as I believe, but I also believe that account that has ps plus has to have the system activated under his/her name first. Otherwise, youd have to get ps plus yourself anyways

Nvm, figured it out

[@onceagainentertainment583]

If you make a sub account can you transfer game saves ect from the master account to the sub account?

[@TheCodester1113]

well yeah... If ur asking if u CONVERT it like I shown in the video to continue using saves then yes. Creating a whole another account with new email address and such? no, cuz itll give u issues like on ps3 saying u don't own the game save and trophies will be disabled n yada yada yada. All this does is let u use the social apps on the ps4 and record gameplay from the ps4 itself sharing to twitch, youtube, facebook, sharing trophies to facebook and be able to add credit cards instead of buying ps cards for ingame dlc content or digital game downloads. In other words, anything u can't do on a sub account u can do now once converted to master.

yes you would have to pay for ps plus because if you just made your own account a master account without paying your dads account would become a sub account

I think the other dude that answered ur question was confused by ur question. Yes, but only if that master allows it. For example, the master can set a monthly spending limit of 10$... If there's like 100$ on the master account, the sub still, can only spend 10$ of that a month if the master set a monthly spending limit of 10. So? If there's no limit, then yes...
