Hey guys,
Pairing a ps3 controller to lion requires a passcode... In SL no passcode was required... it paired by using the USB cable...
How can i get this functionality back? Must be some defaults i can write to disable the nazis apple put into lion to control bluetooth pairing.
please help... i cant play earthbound 🙂

I found the following two threads on other sites that got me at least to where the PS3 controller (a DualShock 3 for the sake of search engines) and the Mac were connected and configured via Bluetooth, but I've yet to find a way to pair them. The red LEDs on the controller have been a hit or miss affair for me. Sometimes they flash, sometimes they don't.

Thanks ericeberg!
write a random password as "0000" the controller will be conected, add to your favorites, turn of bluetooth before asked for a password again and then open bluetooth again, should be paired
