VenlafaxineHead Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 So, I got my Vita about 2-weeks ago and while I do like it, I'm extremely irritated with constantly getting stuck on the "Preparing to Download" screen. You're left with no option but to power off your system and start it up again in order to do anything. The first couple times this happened I was really concerned I got a defective device or something... then I did a google seach and it looks like this problem has been going on for over a year!!! Really? Anyone else have this issue when trying to download games from the psn store? Are they ever going to fix it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Lilith Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Yeah, I have that issue sometimes. I just reset the system and try again, usually it lets me actually download that time. Still annoying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VenlafaxineHead Posted September 6, 2013 Author Share Posted September 6, 2013 Yeah, I have that issue sometimes. I just reset the system and try again, usually it lets me actually download that time. Still annoying. Same here... it seems like it happens a lot though. I mean, I've only had my system for a couple weeks and have been stuck on that screen about 20 times already. This seems like a major issue that should be dealt with. The fact it's been going on for over a year is really disconcerting to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, I usually have this issue after playing first some games (e.g. check ecolibrium or Toro's Friend Network) then downloading a game in PS Store... I wish they fix it in next patch(es) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skateak Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 It happens to me often but works the 2nd time. I have seen a Sony employee acknowledge the problem on the PS Blog so hopefully it gets fixed soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
