Why isnt my PS3 conneting to my TV?

Question

The projector in the media room broke so I sent it to Japan, but i still want to use my PS3. So I hooked up all of the cords to my TV but its not taking. I turn on the PS3 and the screen flashes white but then nothing happens. Is it the PS3 or the red, white and yellow cables?

Answer 1

Hmmm. Probably the cables. Get new ones, and before you do that, make sure you connected the cables in the correct places. It should be input. and try all the functions - HDMI, AUX, ETC.  

Answer 2

make sure that your tv is on the right input (aka video 1, video 2, component, composite...try them all)

make sure they cables are tight

make sure the colors match up (even ive made that mistake before)

to determine if its the ps3..try it on another tv. if it works, your tv is messed up, if it doesnt, try a new cable and see if thats the problem.

Answer 3

looks like you used a HD cable to connect your PS3 to your projector. and now you want to connect to your TV using yellow, white, red cables?

if thats the case, make sure you have the PS3 hooked up to the Tv with yellow white red cable. then put the ps3 in standby mode(red light), hold down the power button on the front for about 10 seconds until you hear a beep.(it will beep when it first starts up, wait til you hear another beep) that will reset the display settings to the cable that is plugged in the PS3

Answer 4

Try Turning On Your Ps3 By Holding The Power Button

Answer 5

make sure that all the cords are connected right  

Answer 6

go to the settings part of your ps3 and make sure to change your hdmi setting to composite av cables it might be that you have it set to one but you can only make the ps3 work for certain connection by choosing them in settings
