    Just spent two hours messing with this...what a pain in the nuts. Just goes right back to the QR screen everytime. EDIT : Solution is to create a PS account first, then you can sign in. Sorry guys, yt is ghosting all my replies to y'all.

    Thank you for making this video. My fiancée was very frustrated when she was unable to sign into her PSN Account. Solution 4 worked for us. Like you said there must be some kind of glitch. Sad that there isn’t a patch to fix it so that people don’t have to deal with this.

    I was having the same problem with entering the generated password and getting the QR screen over and over. I generated a few then revoked them when they didn’t work and generated another and still didn’t work. Finally I revoked it, waited like 30 secs and generated another time and this time it worked. Make sure not to generate a ton of passwords and not use them, try and just do it once and use that, hopefully somebody will be helped by this.
