Mr_Freaker Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 My PS4 has shown problems with inserting discs. Yesterday it worked perfectly to insert and reject a disc, but today it ceased to function completely. I've installed all updates and rebooted the database in safe model as countermeasure but they don't work. However I can't insert any disc. It doesn't make any effort to accept any disc. I can be mistaken but it's like the my console is in "disc reject mode". When I look into my disc tray thingie, I see two little gray/white pillars preventing the disc to be inserted. I assume that these things push the disc out whenever required. However this is just a guess. Anyone an idea to fix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Javro_07 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Did you try Eagle's post in the following thread? Seemed to work for a few others on there. http://community.us.playstation.com/t5/PlayStation-4-Support/FIXED-quot-PS4-won-t-accept-discs-quot-issue-fixed-at-home/td-p/42737701 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malfuras Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Had this trouble yesterday. It was like trying to insert a disc with one already in. I turned off and on again and it seemed to sort itself out. Have you managed to get yours working yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AARCT1C Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 I'm having that exact problem now, my PS4 won't accept discs. It's like it thinks there's a disc already in there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trokator Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I had the same problem and I saw this tip in a video that helped me. Close your ps4 and unplug and when you turn it back on normally you got the small blue light on the front of the ps4 that blink. While it,s blinking try to insert the disc, mine have accepted it all the time. Hope its help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jollybrah Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I also had this problem come back after the update, I suggest pulling the plug out and leaving it for a couple minutes. If that doesn't work, try reinstalling the software update or rebuilding the database, do this by holding the power button down until you hear 2 beeps and then pick what you want!

DrBloodmoney Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 That can happen if you remove the disc while in rest mode with the game suspended. Do a full reboot and it should reset Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AARCT1C Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 It weirdly started working a few days ago, I didn't even do anything different. Oh well, glad it works :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AffectatiousDonk Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I have had this problem on and off for a few months last year before it started to get quite bad. I know in Australia if you return it to where you bought it they will exchange it providing it was within a year. I found that by buying a stand and having it vertical the problems have vanished and been working fine for months now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AARCT1C Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I have a vertical stand for mine, I also recommend investing in one to everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
