Oh man!  It took me over a week and I purchased 3 controllers before I finally figured out what is the problem.  So the problem is not really the controllers (especially if they are brand new), the problem is usually the USB cable. Online there are several ways to attempt to resolve and troubleshoot this crazy problem.  So I'll run through those first before I explain how to set it up without a USB cable. This will work with almost any PS4 controller both the original and 'pro' version; those have a light bar on the top edge of the touch pad. Easiest - connect to a USB cable and click the PS Home Button while the PS4 is turned off.  If the PS4 turns on, then cheer, yeah! Reset Controller - find the small hole on the bottom of the controller near the L2 button.  Press it with a paper clip to reset the controller.  Then try Method 1. Power Off PS4 - turn off the PS4 (press and hold the power button until it beeps a second time).  Unplug the power cord and wait 1-2 minutes t

Finally did it and upgraded to the iPhone 11.  Got a special deal and a discounted phone, but had to switch over to T-Mobile.  Overall, I'm impressed and happy as I was also having signal problems with my previous carrier Verizon (it wouldn't work that well in Vegas) and also in several parts of my home town. It's almost like night-and-day moving from the now relatively small iPhone 6s to the much larger 11 in both screen size (6.1" vs. 4.7") and overall heft (7 oz vs. 5 oz).  It's about as heavy as a half-pound rock so quite substantial. Transfer -- Quite Effortless Apple gets kudos for a near seamless transfer process.  The only hitch were a few apps required me having to re-enter my login credentials.  The only HARD part of the process was moving some accounts that require Google Authenticator, but I was expecting that and it makes sense they don't make it easy to move MFA (multi-factor authentication).
