Answer 1

1). To transfer you'll need this:

2). All PS3 are online compatible;
3). First dump your musiv on jump drive or something like that. Make sure you name folders there Video and Music (so PS3 can see them). Transfer your media to PS3 - insert jump drive (or external HDD, PSP, etc), choose on your PS3 music ar video icons - you'll be able to see your jump drive under. choose it, choose which media yoiu want to transfer - hit Triangle -> Copy.
Happy holidays! :-)

Answer 2

PS2 Games Saves

After purchasing the USB drive needed, go to Memory Card Utility (under the Game folder). Then you select the memory card you have already put in (PS ONE CARDS DO WORK!!!) the card should appear as the top icon in the list. Simply click X and your on your way. After copying the card, you will need to assign it a slot. (there are still only two slots.) you can changeout the slots for different memory cards to load your game, for example if you have five memory cards you can put a PS2 one you are about to use and a another one you may use later in slots one and two.


Music and videos
Simply take a jump drive, external hard drive, etc…hook it up to the USB port on the front and then you--

Goto to view under music, or video, or photos, scroll down to the drive you've hooked up hover over it then push Triangle(notX) then select display all (view all)(press X) and it will show everything on the jump drive or external harddrive. Then either listen to or view the music, video, photos or copy to the ps3 hard drive directly.

If you have a psp you can also use that to move files from pc to ps3.
