PS3 Controller on PC (HELP)

[kgrevemberg]

Hey guys I'm in need of a little help.

Im trying to use a ps3 controller on my pc. Ive downloaded Motioninjoy and I bought an Insignia Bluetooth Adaper.

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/insignia-bluetooth-4-0-usb-adapter-black/5655065.p?id=1219147137699&skuId=5655065

I can get the controller to pair up and work with the cable to the pc but im trying to get it to work over bluetooth. My main issue is that my adapter doesnt show up in motioninjoy. My computer sees the adapter, and i can even pair my phone to it but the program itself wont see it. All it says is "waiting for bluetooth adaper"

Any help would be much appreciated.

that worked. The main thing i was needing apparently was the program that "changes" my usb bluetooth driver to work this way. However it still never appeared in the Motioninjoy program or the better ds3 program, I believe its working because I had already changed the master of the ps3 controller to the bluetooth mac address. Thanks for you help!!

Yeah I tried it and it doesn't appear in the program, but it does work wirelessly, which is a step up from my xbox controller. (and also the ps3 controller is tough as balls, and takes tons of punishment without breaking)

im kind of a 360 controller man myself but my friend had a spare and I didnt feel like ordering one lol. Im pleasantly pleased though. Ive been playing with it for 2ish days now and its been working flawlessly from my couch. The square and circle buttons appear to have been flipped in the witcher 3 game but it hasnt affected me yet though.
