How to Set Up a PS3 Controller With GamePad Companion on a Mac


Open a Web browser and navigate to tattiebogle.net. Click the 'Projects' link, followed by the 'PS3 Controller' link. Click the 'Version 0.01' link to download the PS3 controller driver.
Double-click the driver .dmg file to mount the image. Double-click the package install file and follow the onscreen instructions to install the driver onto the computer.
Connect the PS3 controller to the computer via the USB connection cable that came with your PS3 system. Click the 'Apple' icon in the computer's menu bar and select the 'System Preferences ... ' option.
Click the 'GamePad Companion' icon beneath the Other heading to open the GamePad Companion preferences window. The PS3 controller will appear beneath the Devices Found heading.
Click on the PS3 controller beneath the Devices Found heading. Press the button, D-pad direction or analog stick direction on the controller that you want to map to the keyboard or mouse. GamePad Companion will automatically detect the controller's input.
Click the arrow to the right of the Action heading and select the 'Single Key' option if you want the controller input to correspond to a single key. Press the key on the keyboard that you want to map to the controller's button. For example, if you pressed the 'X' button in Step 5, press the space bar to map the space bar to the 'X' button.
Click the arrow to the right of the Action heading and select the 'Mouse Button' option to map the controller input, to a mouse click.
Click the arrow to the right of the Action heading and select the 'Mouse positive x-axis,' 'Mouse negative x-axis,' 'Mouse positive y-axis' or 'Mouse negative y-axis' option to map the controller input to the corresponding mouse movement.
Repeat Steps 5 through 8 for all of the inputs on the PS3 controller. When you are finished, click the 'Start' button to begin using the PS3 controller with your Mac computer.
