I cant get themes on my ps3. You can download custom ones and then put them on your ps3. So i download them and go to put them on the ps3 and it says that it cant find the themes. It isnt the flashdrive because i have used it before soooo. What do you thnk it is.?

Help would Help.

Hmm, it has to be the right file, you may have to extract it if its in a .zip file. I don't really know what else to tell you.

Well how do you extract a zip file on a mac. I havent really researched it.

But most of them are .p3t filetype

Oh, if they are .p3t files then they should be recognizable to the PS3, I don't know wht to tell you, but I will try adding a theme to my SD card(for my camera) and if that works I will try to help you out.

When you put them on your flash drive create a folder called PS3 then inside that folder make a folder called THEME then put the .p3t file in there!

Shorter terms: /PS3/THEME/file.p3t

Then in your XMB go to settings then themes then pick a theme option then click Install at the top and it should pop right up!

Hope this helps

Edit: Also I get all my themes from themeurps3.com
So go check them out!

Captain - I had this problem the other day - turns out the folder names are case sensitive (at least that was my determination) - did you get it working yet?

...and...what site do you think has the most themes to choose from? It's getting almost as bad as finding MySpace layouts, ha ha...

really - I should have mentioned this sooner - the easiest way is to use a site such as allps3themes.com from your PS3 browser, one click and it's downloaded and in the right place to select from the theme menu...

The PS3Court 2.0 will offer a downloads section with a bunch of PS3 Themes in it. Just an FYI. As for how to get them to work - to be completly honest I've never tried!
