AC:NL Error code 018-0512

Hi, whenever I try to connect to other towns in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, I keep recieving the error code 018-0512.

On the website, it says that it's a connectivity issue, but I can access the internet on my 3DS just fine. In fact, I can see all the towns online (as well as the visitors,) but when I attempt to join, the system spits this error code back at me.

 

 

Is there anybody who can help me solve this?

3DS Update Problem

I just got a Nintendo 3DS a few hours ago, and am trying to update it. When the system starts to update, it stops and a message comes up saying "An error has occurred. Unable to update. The system will now be restarted." I have deleted then input back in my internet settings 3 times, and still continue to have this problem. What can I do to fix this?

 

Thanks,

SD Card not detected

This just started happening when I updated my 3DS. Every time I try to access the eShop, or even the Home menu, I get an error message saying that the system "Could not detect an SD card" and "The software on the SD card could not be displayed". Also, it tells me the portion of my SD card that stores software data is corrupted when I access the eShop and redirects me to data management. I have formatted everything and I still get this error. Please help!

Nintendo 3DS error and SD card help.

Okay, so I have this problem on my 3ds. I've been using a 4 GB SD card and recently, I went to the EShop to buy Animal Crossing: New Leaf. I needed more blocks so I got a new 8 GB SDHC card by Imation. So I redownloaded Pokemon Y, which was the only game I had because it was the free pokemon x or y event. So I was playing ACNL and it was fine but a couple hours later, I got an error message saying An error has occurred. Please press the POWER BUTTON to turn the 3ds off or something like that. And I kept getting that message on both my pokemon Y and ACNL. That was around a week ago and I tried to solve that by reformatting my SD card and repairing my downloads. Since this didn't happen to any of my physical copies, I thought it had to do with my SD card not being compatible, and at that time, the EShop stopped working for me. So I got a new Micro SD card and I tried to move my old files to my Desktop, but the Nintendo 3DS file wouldn't move. My DCIM would be fine however. I had an older version of the file from when I formatted my SD card a couple days ago, so I put that file into the new Micro SD card. I put that into my 3ds and I went to the EShop and it was working, so I thought it really was my SD card. I went to pokemon Y next to see if I would get the error message again but when I tried to play, it said that the version of the saves file was not compatible with the game.

 

Does anyone know how to fix this? Any help would be appreciated.

Whenever I select the buy button on One Piece Unlimited World Red for the DLC the game goes through signing in my Nintendo Network ID, then starts to prepare my SD card then loads a little and gives me the Error Code 009-1502. I've been in a good distance from it and I have also restarted my router. I've looked on the internet and there is nothing about it.

Pokemon X Problem

So on the day of pokemon x and y's launch I couldn't wait for my pre-ordered pokemon y to come so I downloaded a pokemon x on my 3ds. I beat the game and transferred:

My First Legit Lv.100, My Leafeon

My In-Game Flygon

Pokemon from old nuzlockes

My Legit Caught shiny jotik, scolipede, and my first ever shiny my tentacool

And MANY MANY others.

I also had a box full of competetive shinies I baught of Ebay for 10 bucks.

One day I was flying around Kalos when I stopped to save to leave in a house in Shalour City. While I was saving my game the screen suddenly froze. The little loading thingy stopped and nobody moved but the music still played. I turned my 3DS off and came back to it later. It said something like this:

"Something.... Something..... Please redownload your game" After a while the icon dissapeared. So I went to the Eshop and it said I had already downloaded it. I checked in the settings and it didn't show my Pokemon X but oddly it showed a box with a question mark that took up 0 bites. I couldn't redownload it or make save data so my only option was to delete the question mark. After that I was aloud to download it again. When I opened it back up I had to start over. My years of work were gone. Nintendo or someone please help! If you had this please tell me. (Also this is my first time making a post so I'm pretty new) My FC is 4038-6567-6812 and I can trade from my Y game. My name is Isaiah. (I don't know if this did anything but I cloned a few pokemon with action replay on my Y game and moved them through pokemon bank to my x game.

Hello! I have seen lots of people saying their 3ds is stolen/lost so I am wondering if there is anything I can do about it before it happens to me. For example, what apple does for the ipod touch/iphone/ipad at me.com. Is their a way to track it with a serial number?

SD Card Transfer Problems: Old/Ghost Data?

$

Hey, so I'm having a weird problem with transfering between SD Cards.
I have a 3DS XL that I did a system transfer to from a 3DS about year or two ago. I've been using the SD Card that came with the XL until it go too small for my needs, so I bought a 32GB SD card, which reads/writes just fine. The problem is when I transfer the files from the old card to the 32GB card, I don't see my current files on my 3DS XL (Digital Download of Animal Crossing in particular). The only thing I see are the old games and apps that were on the system the day I did the system transfer.

 

So what should I do to fix this? I don't even mind redownloading the games that were on my old card, I primarily want my save data; Animal Crossing: New Leaf data in particular.

 

I tried downloading ACNL on the new card, but it loaded up with a new game, so the Save Data didn't even transfer.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

NEW 3DS/xl Suggestion

I'm look to trade my 3DS xl on for the New version. I has hoping there may be a trade in deal. If not Nintendo should allow $40-$60 off for trade in.

Formatting without losing downloads?

$

So I have a second, Japanese 3DS I don't use much. I recently tried to use it to get onto the eShop, but it demanded that I sign into an NNID. I figured out that my friend had set it up when he was borrowing it, but he didn't remember the password and didn't think it had an associated email to reset the password with. Sending a password reset email was no luck either. So I can't get onto the eShop because of the NNID, and in the System Options section, I couldn't find the option to remove the NNID, which the website insists exists.

 

So, barring a workaround on one of these parts, my only option left for re-accessing the eShop is apparently to format the system memory. This apparently removes access to downloads made with the NNID. But will it also remove downloads made before making the NNID? I don't want to lose those. If they're still linked to the system and I can just re-download them, I'm not worried. But if not, it'd be a huge waste.

 

Does anyone have information about the formatting or some workaround to make it not necessary? I don't care about the NNID itself; I just want to be able to download new games without losing my old ones.


3DS XL memory card question

Planning to upgrade the memory card that came with my 3DS XL.

I have a couple of questions before I purchase a card.

 

Is there any cards I should avoid buying? I know that it supports SDHC, micro SD with an adapter. I'm wondering if there's a brand/model of card I should avoid. Does the class of the card matter?

 

Does moving data across cards to the same console require using the transfer tool? I want to know if it will use up one of my transfers.

 

I read through the FAQ about moving Data across SD cards but im still confused on if it uses up a transfer or not.

Nintendo 3DS to 3DS XL Transfer Questions

$

Hello. I have a Nintendo 3DS, the original one that first came out back in 2011.  Inside it has an 8GB SD card where all my data is currently saved (the 8GB SD card is one I bought from a store for larger capacity and is not one that originally came with the 3DS itself).  Recently my dad purchased a brand new Nintendo 3DS XL for me for my birthday, and I think he also purchased a warranty on it but as of this posting I'm not entirely sure.  I've always thought the 3DS XL looked cool but was always hesitant on buying one out of fear of losing any games or saved data in the process of transferring from my current 3DS to a new 3DS XL.  However, now that I actually have one, I'm probably going to have to do it anyway.  So I have some questions.

 

First off, I just took my 8GB SD card from my original 3DS and inserted it into my computer, so all the current data on it could be backed up in its entirety.  The backup process was successful and all the data from my SD card is now copied onto my computer.

 

Now, I have a few questions.  If I go to transfer from my Nintendo 3DS to my new 3DS XL, will all of my data be successfully transferred?  That includes downloaded games from the eShop, rare games such as TLoZ: Four Swords and the original arcade version of Donkey Kong, Virtual Console games, saved game data on all those games (including Restore Points) as well as saved game data on hard copy games, and such?  Does it include all of my saved Miis? What about free and purchased DLC for games (such as Coin Rush packs for NSMB2 or puzzles for Pushmo/Crashmo)? What about Swapnote? I have tons of notes from friends that I'm hoping will transfer over to my 3DS XL as well as limited-edition promotional stationery I received from different sources.  Would it be best to add myself as a "friend" on both 3DS systems and download Swapnote on my 3DS XL, and then send myself notes on Swapnote with all the different stationery from my original 3DS so the new system gets it?  I'm not even sure if that's feasible since I'd think that once you transfer over your old system's data to a new one that the data that was on the new one would be overwritten.  Would all of my pictures and videos and sound recordings from my original 3DS also be saved and be transferred over to my new 3DS XL?  And once the system transfer is complete, I would just take the SD Card out from the original 3DS and put it into the new 3DS XL and it would actually be usable?  Or if not, would I have to copy all the backed up data from my SD card that's sitting on my computer right now onto a fresh SD card? And what should I do with my old 3DS, once that's all said and done?

 

Since I've been playing Animal Crossing: New Leaf for the past few months (the physical copy, not a downloaded copy), I've been making tremendous progress in my town so as you can see...I don't want to lose my data (or any data at all for that matter) in the process of transferring.

 

One last question.  Whenever our home phone rings, for some reason the internet on any mobile device gets disconnected but then comes back up after a few seconds.  Would it be best to perform this kind of transfer, if I'm even going to do it at all, late at night when there's hardly a chance at all the phone will ring as to not disrupt the system transfer process? I've heard that if the process is somehow disrupted due to a bad connection while in the middle of it that you could potentially lose data if that happens.

 

If anyone could please answer my questions and ease my concerns in the process, that'd be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.
