I must have set up my account when I was 17 because my DOB is a year off. I'd like to have it right in case I need to recover my password/account. What's the easiest way? I couldn't find it anywhere in the PSN account settings online.

Pretty sure you'd have to contact Playstation Support directly – Ben Brocka Jul 9 '12 at 11:57

So...when you were 17 you had a different birthday? :/ – Alex Jul 9 '12 at 12:15
@Alex I hope you're being sarcastic :) – Adam Lynch Jul 9 '12 at 12:18

You said 'I must have set it up when I was 17 because my DOB is a year off'. That implies that when you were 17 your DOB was different to what it is now :P – Alex Jul 9 '12 at 12:26

Oh, I see what he means. He set it to 18 when he was 17. – GnomeSlice Jul 9 '12 at 19:49

Short answer: you can't. At least, not with your account settings. Sony uses your DOB when you want to retrieve your password, and a few other things.

You may try to contact Sony, or at least the PSN department, but I would be surprised if they did.
