PS4 Cannot continue using the Application. Make sure the disc is not damaged or dirty. SOLVED 2023 

I swear guys I'm not a fucking bot and it works somehow for me and I haven't played fucking bo3 in years and I tried my other friends PS4 and I tried this method and it works... This man deserves like a million likes cuz I'm so fucking happy rn

omg man i am accualy crying r now cuz u are the only one who solved that problem

Easier method. When the error pops up, if you have a recently installed game, hold the PS button - go to notifications- Press x on the recently installed game to play the other game. When it asks you do you want to close application hit 'cancel'. The screen should be gone. This should be easier than having to put it rest mode.

Thank you bro. It worked for me. 6th July, 2020

Alright so this didn’t work for me, but I did a bunch of stuff and eventually it did. My Fallout 4 disc is super janky so I looked up a bunch of methods. 1.) The toothpaste method works for most people, but you have to be careful. Basically slather toothpaste on the back of the disc and let it sit, but not for too long. After a minute or so you need to hold it under the sink and wash it. Don’t rub the toothpaste off, just let the water wash it away. Once you’re done you need to dry it off with something super soft and then continue washing it with water for a few minutes. Once it’s all dry, just put it in and it might work. 2.) If that doesn’t work then you need to do something a little more tedious. Delete the game and put the disc in. Skip any updates and wait for the error to pop up. DONT PUSH ANYTHING. Not the home button and definitely don’t push the X button. Let it sit for a long time. Most games will copy in 30-45 minutes and the same goes for these broken ones. So with that in mind (and this sounds stupid) but let it sit for at least 2 hours. Just on the error screen. Once you’ve waited you’re going to put it in rest mode and turn it back on. Go into your game and it should be good if you wait for a while. 3.) But life sucks right? If you’re at this step then I’m sorry. But I hope I can help you. Alright so you need to do the same thing as #2 but with some added steps. Delete the game, remove the disc, and turn the console completely off. Hold the power button down until it beeps a second time. Rebuild your database and wait for it to load. Once you’re back on the home page you need to repeat step #2 and pray. If none of these worked then I’ve got one more thing that kinda worked for me. The game started downloading and was at 21% when I heard the disc stop spinning. Now the Ps4 is gonna try to respin it several times and when it can’t, it’ll show the error. When I heard it stop spinning, I jostled the Ps4 around. Held it at different angles and eventually found one where the disc started spinning again. Every time the disc stopped spinning I would do this and it would start again. If none of this worked then keep trying the methods. I did these maybe 5 or 6 times before it finally worked.

Thank you so much bro. It helped me. Also congrats on ur new song man! It’s sick

Thank you for being a G & helping us all out. This just worked for me with Dark Souls 3. Greatly appreciated & here's one more thumbs up for the road! 👍

Can't believe this actually fucking worked, you're my favorite African now

I love how he waits for the game to actually load at the end, alot of the people skips to the end for the results. Alot of them are fake too. Thanks

Well, I just wanted to say that it worked, after thinking for so long that I was never going to be able to play GTA V with my friends again, I tried this trick and it actually worked, you've just made my summer so much better, thanks

Omg this actually worked I’ve been trying for years now this was the only one that worked

thank you so much, i only left it long enough to get it past the point where it stopped but it worked, I'll be sure to show you to anyone who needs this

Mine is not working still it gives me a black screen I have tried this several times, and I also left it overnight to give it more time but it doesn’t seem to work, can you find a solution for that please ??

This worked. You're a life saver dude. I subscribed and liked for you

I came back here..just wanted to thank you...it really works.. good job

So basically the blue screen is just a glitch. The disc still works. When you get a used game, the PS4 for some reason doesn’t recognize it until it’s fully installed.

Yo this man is a goat it actually worked now I can play BLACK OPS 3 yessir

My Disk is comletely clean , shining. Still the same message is popping up.

Thanks. It worked for GTA Auto 5. You saved me bro

My GTA V had the same problem but it happened to me 1 time and the 2nd time a just restart the download and it worked normally but my friend had the same problem with rdr2 so we tried this what you did and it actually works thank you so much bro

It worked for me just on my first try. I love you dude. Keep up the good works

Omg bruh , u a real one , I thought I broke my disc , thanks for the help

Thank you sooo much, 🙏🙏🙏 this worked, you have a new subscriber!!!

Thanks bro This worked on my GTA 5 I already gave up till I saw your video, wasn’t even up to an hour.. I appreciate ❤️

You sir are a legend tried all sorts of shit and it failed time and time again , thanks to you brother from a very different mother ,👍🤛🏻

YOOOO IT WORKED, i was inpatient to wait 1 or 2 hours so i decided to just go into rest mode and turn it on then it worked, now i can play horizon zero dawn, thank you bro🙏

Thanks so much man. This worked for my PS4 for black ops 3, April 14th 2021

THANK YOU! Your video has helped me to install this game after a thousand tries. What it worked for me: - on power setting, select that in rest mode applications continue to work in the background - deactivate Internet network from settings - make sure the disc is clean - delete all game data and turn off the PlayStation - turn on and start the disc - let installation run until Blue screen comes on - at this point you can either wait or put in rest mode (as shown in the video) - restart the game again and it should continue downloading - you might have to do it a couple of times. Don't lose hope. It will work!

Omg it worked I deleted all my accounts and even intilized my PlayStation so all my games can get deleted and it wouldn’t work until I tried this

Im looking at this in 2021 for my bo3 and this still works Thank you so much

Hey if it still gives the same message turn your PS4 off; hold on button till second beep then let go (it will go into safe mode); connect controller with usb and press ps button; pick nr.3; pick nr.3 again (using internet); and update. Do this until you are updated and have no more updates it takes between 10min - 15min for every update depending on your internet! Then try your game again if it does not work you might need to take PSN in for cleaning and or part replacement like the rollers or lenses.

I hate how I can hear the game and its works fine

I did this like 5 times for GTA V already and it’s not working. I keep getting the error at around 49% and the disc stops spinning multiple times

THIS 100 PERCENT WORKED FOR ME. I LEFT IT ON THE SCREEN FOR AN HOUR THEN DID REST MODE THEN RESTARTED IT AND IT WORKED. THANK YOU!!!

Thank you so much bro, you are a legend!

Worked. You're a blessing 24th October 2022!

I deleted 2k20 and I try to get it back but it not working

I am really surprised that how this works . Good Work Man❤️

This was happening to me wit my 2k21 thxs for the help btw💯

Yes ive done this never works for long and once this starts prepare for any brand! New! Games to do this bs! Even if your game downloads i have the problem with character creation and blue screen even after its downloaded. The only way i found a solution is get a new ps4 or go to digital download. Been dealing with this bs issue forever.

This worked perfectly. Thanks mate. You can hear the disk keeps spinning fast when the error is on display. Disk spinning stopped after about 15 mins, I waited another 15 minutes and tried the rest mode and back on. It worked perfectly for horizon zero dawn. Thank you so much.

My God! Thanks dude. It worked 24th August 2022!

Thank you my gta5 kept saying that for 13 days and it now is fixed thank you . November 21 2020

Hello mister,my disc stuck on the loading screen,how to fix it

Aye Bro I did this right now for all the people wondering if it worked for GTA and I believe it works I’m loading up the game right now ( Date : December 26 2020 )

Im Trying to play call of duty ghosts and i cleaned my disc several times. I did everything you said to do, and i reset it waited and everything and i still cant get in. Please Help

You are the hero we don't deserve! It worked after one try! Keep up the good work

I did this but the in game download didnt install and i left it overnight idk whats going on the game is bo3 btw

Kaka reply if you love Chadwick Boseman! Wakanda forever 👊🏻

Thank you so much dude I tried this on my cod ghosts disc after a bunch of years not being able to use it cuz it couldn't be red. Much love thank you sm

Hey 1 question I woke up to restart it in rest mode but when I did that and opened the game it was at 31 and quickly said remove the disc do I keep installing it or do I repeat the steps

THIS WORKED IN 2023! 7TH AUSUST 2023

Turn off internet, delete any game files for whatever game then install. If dumb message pops up. Click retry. It should continue if not the disk really is damaged, clean it. Pop it back in. Install. Might take a few tries. Gta5 took me about 5 tries till it finally loaded from game then turn on internet and update. Done. What a pain in the ass. I did this on ps5, should be the same on PS4 I'm sure

I really hope it works. Because my WWE 2k17 wasn’t reading. I did all the steps , except the one for waiting 1 hour and putting it on rest mod. But I am sure as heaven it will work. Because if it works for you it will work for me

Same problem with god of war I will edit if it’s work

I’m watching in 2021 and it so helpful thanks man you deserve a lot of love 🥰

guys im tryin it ... but my console sounds like clickers is that my disk problem? its totally clean and never damaged

This actually work thank youuuu bud

It’s works thank you man , when I first tired it, it didn’t work until the third time for me hit keep on trying trust

Somehow this worked? I honestly don’t know how some power saving option fixed this I thought my disc drive wasn’t working

Omg it actually worked!!!! Thank you so much man!
