[PS3] How To: FTP Transfer using Multiman and Filezilla (by raphaelligh)
Note from Wololo: This tutorial was initially published by /Talk member raphaelligh, as part of our monthly tutorial contest. Raphaelligh won the best PS3 tutorial prize (a $10 PSN Code) for his entry. You can find the original post here.
Hello, here’s a tutorial that will explain how to use Multiman to transfer your backup from PC to PS3 with Filezilla via Ethernet cable, and how to access your HDD (internal hard disk of the PS3) from your computer.
You will need :
- A hacked PS3
- An Ethernet cable.
- FileZilla : you can download it here : https://filezilla-project.org/download.php
- Latest version of multiman installed, you can download multiman here.
- Plug your Ethernet cable into the BOX or router in the port RJ45 (regardless of your model).
- Install Multiman (link above) if you don’t have it installed or update from your PS3 in Multiman => Update.
- Go to SETTINGS and then NETWORK SETTINGS.
- Then in Internet connection, activate the internet connection.
- Go to the Games in XMB, and then launch Multiman.
- Go to SETTINGS.
- Press the triangle button.
- A menu will appear on your right, click on Advanced Settings.
- Look at the bottom, and take note of your IP address : “PS3 IP”
- Return in Multiman, then Settings and then FTP service.
- Select at the bottom “Avtivate (No Timeout)”.
- Go to your PC and open Filezilla. Enter the IP address of your PS3 in Filezilla top left, in “host” then click on “Quick Connect” on the right. You can access now the hard drive of your PS3.
If that does not work, check in Filezilla / Edit / Settings / Connection / FTP / Transfer Mode, and check the box “Activate”.
In Filezilla, you can see :
- On the left : your PC (Local site).
- On the right : your ps3 (Remote Site).
- Drag / drop from the left to the right folder on your Backup, eg BLESXXXXX or BLUSXXXXX DRAG ——> INSERT (this will work not only for games but also for any kind of file).
- The transfer is being done, wait …
- You can disconnect your PS3 now.
That’s it, I hope I could help as much people as possible.
ENJOY !
I wish my ps3 was modded so i could use this ;-;
You don’t need it to be modded you just need it to be Jailbreak lol
it’s the exact same thing shut up
How are they the same? Modded implies physical modifications while jailbroken implies software exploit to run unsigned code. Then there’s custom firmware which is a modified operating system or firmware running thanks to an exploit.
Ummm……shouldn’t anybody that has a modified game system be capable enough to figure out how to FTP if they don’t already know? Shouldn’t basic computer skills be a requirement before modding any system? Oh yeah, that’s right – most people got on PS3 CFW just by throwing an update file on their USB drive
The only problem I see with this guide is it doesn’t explain what all the device locations are
dev_bdvd = bluray drive (not writable)
dev_blind = flash (writable – has to be enabled in multiMAN’s settings – ONLY FOR EXPERIENCED USERS)
dev_flash – dev_flash3 = Flash (not writable and for good reason)
dev_hdd0 – internal hard drive (writable)
dev_hdd0 – cache partition (writable but not permanent)
dev_usb0 – usb drive plugged in far right USB slot (writable as FAT32, read only as NTFS except on Cobra compatible firmware)
dev_usb1 and up – (writable – continues from right to left. Depends on your model how many usb ports you have)
Why are you acting like you have such a superiority complex? Let me guess, from day 1 you knew everything about computers right? you were never a noob? you give this scene a bad name.
Should you not be allowed to drive a car just because you don’t know how an engine works?
shut the *** up dude.
Hey numb nuts this is a little different from computers. I’m used to using FTP programs for servers and computers, or just SSH into them, but the PS3 isn’t the same in terms of allowing it to FTP and obtaining the IP. I’ve decided to mess around with a PS3 recently since I haven’t used cfw on one yet and found this article to verify information on it instead of asking on a forum where pretentious *** like you will *** and moan to look it up. You’re the reason why the PS scene is insufferable; people like you telling newcomers to look up info instead of answering simple questions, leading to tons of people asking the same questions and making sifting through dozens of threads a pain, all the while berating a source of information that would alleviate this congestion. Get bent.
sorry – the cache partition should have read as dev_hdd1. Damn typos
This is assuming you use windows as well. Tisk tisk
Also the transfer mode is active not activate
? This doesn’t assume you use Windows at all.
this is stupid after everything that’s been done on ps3 it takes like 2 seconds to use FTP on ps3 all u need is blackbox and cuteFTP. Just run Blackbox it gives u ps3 ip, type the ip in CuteFTP and set it to port 21 that’s it. Why do u need Multiman at any tim or all the extra steps please I have 4 hacked PS3’s 2 slim and 2 fat
blackbox doesn’t work on any cfw over 3.55
Multiman works on everything.
Yeah it does im running now blackbox n filezilla n have cfw 4.65 cobra(
Ok I had a hacked ps3 since the beginning of the whole cfw thing. The easiest FTP method for me was always just run blackbox on ps3 get the IP, leave blackbox running, go to pc run either cuteFTP or Filezilla, type IP as host and type in port 21 that,s it. It works the same way for VitaFTP, why do all those steps.
i want a pseudotv hardware or software (a xbmc tv channels fake plugin from hdd)
but im waiting for vhbl with remotejoynet for vita
allthough i really want xbmc on psp and ps3 to …
but the otheros is gone from newer firmware
and euhm that pseudotv i want is a new version with dlna
but i want more home network tools for psp and ps3
like joining a home network for workgroups
and a dlna media player
the bummer with my digital dlna tv recorder is
atm i have to install a yelo.tv app for telenet
and login to record but allso login to play
and on ps3 this works without the login
so whats the reversal of ps3 firmware been coming out to lately ?
any new aspirations in life for pc software or psp homebrew ?
cheers
Not been funny but this guide was around when the ps3 first got hacked, So really all you need to do is google for guide which hundreds can be found, so far all ive seen is copy/paste from other sources
“How to use FTP inefficiently on PS3.” Seriously Ftp is a 3 step process.
1.FTP program on PC/Tablet/Phone.
2. CFW enabled PS3 with CuteFTP on it.
3.Connect to address with PC Program that CuteFTP gives.
Swap *PS3 in step 2 with “PC/Tablet/Phone” in step 1.

Haters be hatin’
Wololo please give us a tutorial on downloading games via psn Ps3 Pc by, locked console.
As a tutorial for a prize. I really think is a very basic guide, as a user mentioned above most would know this already. I mean this is PS3 101 , never seen anyone ask how to FTP …
Now if i was the TuT author i would of covered the better FTP method. webMAN always running background http://FTP.. So transfer files while watching videos, in homebrew, ect……. This is just about as basic as it comes i must say for anyone who has a jailbroken ps3 would know this already.
Thanks Bro.. it really helped me alot !
How to JailBreak ps3 super slim 500gb No Survey !! ?
@ River Guns: Lol, you can’t. I do not understand why people keep asking about jailbreaking systems with 3.60+ OFW pre-installed. There is no, and there may never be, a jailbreak method for super slims. If your system cannot be downgraded to 3.55 OFW or lower using an E3 Flasher then it is not jailbreakable.
there is now bud i just did from 4.82
I want to jailbreak my ps3 super slim 500 gb console. If I will jailbreak it can I download any game ..? Would you please send me any video tutorial where I learn how to jailbreak ps3 console.
Great goods from you, man. I have bear in mind your stuff
previous to and you are just extremely fantastic.
I really like what you’ve obtained right here, certainly like
what you’re saying and the way through which you say it.
You make it entertaining and you continue to take
care of to keep it sensible. I cant wait to learn far more from you.
This is really a terrific web site.
Having read this I believed it was very enlightening.
I appreciate you spending some time and effort to put this informative article
together. I once again find myself spending way too much time both
reading and posting comments. But so what, it was still worth it!
