Ejecting the Disc can be done in two ways with the first one having to be manually using the eject button, which is located below the power button on the PS4 when it is lying down flat horizontally. To clean a dirty disc, use a lint-free cloth and wipe from a straight line from the inner circle to the outer edge.
Now, insert the cleaned disc back into the PS4 again to see if you are still getting the same CE error code as before. You can also try out other PS4 game discs or Blu-Ray movies to see if the problem is limited to just the videogame or if there really is a problem with the Blu-Ray drive.
Usually this error occurs after the PS4 system has already recognized and approved the external hard drive. So, the external hard drive is working fine on PS4 until this error happens. This will hopefully restore its original performance and resolve the issue.

Lovely work around of cleaning g the disc and re inserting … It worked thanks for the amazing suggestions. Not sure if you still have this issue with your PS4 but I had to go to settings, account management, then restore licenses and it fixed this error for my PS4. I hope this is helpful. Should i replace the whole blu ray drive? This error is occuring with a digital game and only with that specific game, i can download and play any other game so im confused as to the root of my problem.
Now play it and check whether it causes the same problem or not. I wanted to install the game shadow of war again after I had removed it from my ps4 a while ago but now that the game has been installed again I cannot start the application and I get a message that the disc is dirty or damaged while there is no scratch or dirt on the disc. I removed the game and downloaded it again had no effect, I also started my ps4 in safe mode, and restore database unfortunately without success.
Apparently the game was not uninstalled correctly the first time, and this what causes the whole issue. I am afraid that you need to reinitialize PS4 in order to be able to play the game.
I downloaded an update for call of duty black ops 4 and right after the update the system updated the software to the most recent version as well, the first time clicking on the game after the updates, the system loaded the first screen and it showed that the update downloaded.
However, about seconds into the screen it brought the message,. My question was that should I back up all of my data for the application to the online storage and then reinstall the game? Or is there anything else I could do that would save the time and having to back-up and reinstall everything to try to fix? To whom reads this and tries to help if possible, thank you for your time to help me come to a conclusion on what to do for this problem. This issue usually happens due to the incompatibility of the game update with the current version of PS4 system software.
OR because the improper installation of the game update. If the reason is the first, you need to initialize PS4 and update it to the latest version, then install that game and its update. Just store the game saves on an external storage device or to the cloud storage provided by PSN, then do what you described already.
You should have always taken a backup copy of the whole PS4 hard drive in case of emergency. Next time think about backing up PS4 data in a regular basis, this will save you lots of efforts in the future. It was the second one thankfully. When the update was mid installing, it also started installing a system update as well as the games update. All the data on our system already is synchronized to upload a backup copy of everything to the cloud. So I uninstalled the game and then it brought a message to reinstall the system update, then after I reinstalled the game itself.
Worked like a charm and got my little sibling to stop freaking out lol. So hopefully the question might help others though because it was a bit frustrating for sure. I want to thank you as well for your kind feedback. May others find in it a solution for their problem.
Hopefully this will do the trick. This is a storage problem then. The easiest way is to work on the hard drive. Try to connect it to a PC and perform a FULL format, which will eliminate all sorts of errors and restore its lost performance. This is surely not a hardware issue. Neither the hard drive nor the VGA has any problem. In many cases, the reason for that comes from some program conflicts that occur within the PS4 operating system.
Initializing PS4 and updating it to the latest version, then trying to play your game should resolve this. Please try this and provide us with your feedback. Try to install it on another PS4 if possible. If not, go to any computer repair shop and take the disc with you and see whether it installs properly or not.
Odyssey is the problem for me aswell! If this error keeps happening put the PS4 into rest mode then turn it back on, restart the PS4 console, then turn off the console.
Do all of this with the disk inside and it should work. Thank you for your advice. May that help someone suffering from this issue. Both of them are having the error code and is wondering if it is my hard drive and what I have to do to fix this problem. Either that or your PS4 just needs initialization. You first try to initialize, if not, accuse the hard drive. So I deleted RDR2 but I decided to download it again so when I first put the disc in it downloaded an update then tried to download the disc all over again it gets to about 80 is percentage and then the error comes up, did I do something wrong?
I think the quickest solution is to initialize PS4. This should fix it. If none of the above suggestions work for you, you need to initialize PS4. Once done, update to the latest system software version, then install that particular game and check whether it works or not. Hi i only have this problem if i decide to suspend my games via entering a ps4 application such as youtube.
Then it works without any problems. I just can play my games if i click on em as soon as i put in the disk and cannot play them after suspending the game. There is no way that my ps4 let me resume my suspended games without giving me this error. User Info: KaijinSurohm. I almost lost my mind on this issue too.

I've tried doing this and the game is all greyed out. User Info: N9philim. This worked for me as far as I can tell still downloading.
Still a bummer as I was hoping to have it preloaded to try out at midnight. Oh well, has anyone at least confirmed that it doesn't interfere with accessing pre-order bonuses? PSN: RobertSpeedwagon. N9philim posted I'm not sure if I understand what you mean. The process detailed above just sends out a "Refresh" for downloads that get stuck.
It will show you everything that you have access too currently for download. User Info: bigb I get the same error but I did not preorder it. User Info: GigerSupreme. The fact that the PS4 needs to copy updates is strange and annoying to many gamers, but the slow process of copying is necessary and can only be sped up with better hardware.
Since its launch in , the PS4 has seen two revisions: the "slim" and the Pro. The slim model simply packed the original's components into a smaller, quieter shell, while the PS4 Pro's upgraded specs added additional processing power to help games run smoother. The PlayStation 5 will soon replace the all three models' now-outdated hardware, possibly even with backward compatibility for Ps4 and earlier PlayStation system games.
In the meantime, PS4 owners are stuck with slow load times and slower updates. Best Apple Watch. Best iPad Cases. Best Portable Monitors. Best Gaming Keyboards. Best Drones.
