Hi banekrayt,
For the PS3 avoid the open source driver and just use the built in OS support. Once synced it behaves like a standard pad and you can get the axis info etc using the HID Calibrator and HID Explorer sample applications on the Apple dev site. All full-functions-PS3-solutions is based on the ability to connect a Bluray-remote. If Sony releases a firmware to PS4 that would allow the same, I dont see a problem with the existing PS3-solutions to also work with PS4.
a) Which Operating System do you have?
By default the drivers will be placed and software
in C:Program FilesRestart Windows – when it starts to boot up again, hit F8 just after the BIOS does its POST. Select “Disable driver signature enforcement” - this is very important!
Update: You can permanently disable driver signature enforcement from within Windows. Run a Command window (cmd.exe) as administrator, and enter the following:
- bcdedit.exe -set loadoptions DDISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
- bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING ON
Doing this prevents you from having to reboot when installing and using these drivers. It will add a “Test Mode” logo on the bottom right of desktop, to remind you that driver signature enforcement is permanently disabled.
Plug in your Playstation 3 controller. If you haven’t done this before, you will see that some basic Windows drivers are installed. This might lead you to believe that the controller will work right away, but unfortunately it won’t.
From the Start button, run the “Install USB driver” under the “MotioninJoy” folder for the appropriate connection method you’ll be using. Make sure to right click and “Run as administrator” or the driver will not install properly.
(Right click, then click “Run as Administrator)
After the driver installs, a Notepad window will pop up, showing you the driver install log. This is what a successful install looks like, on Windows 7 x64:
Restart Windows again.
At this point, the center light on your controller should not be blinking. This is a good indication that it is working.
Now run the “DS3 Tool” program from the Start button. If you followed the directions properly, the main screen should look like this
Note that the controller is listed at the top. If it doesn’t show up, then you did something wrong. The first thing you should probably do is re-run the “Install USB Drivers” as admin, making sure no error messages pop up.
You can now run the controller with whatever features you wish. I’m not sure if there is a reason not to enable all functionality. Perhaps Performance could be an issue, so only enable the features you need.
If you followed the guide correctly, you should see your controller listed, and have full control of all the inputs. On my first attempt, I neglected to “Run as administrator” so I only saw the controller listed, but had no contol over it.
If you see that dialog, you did it wrong, and the driver did not install . Make sure to hit F8 when you boot Windows, or set it to Test Mode using the commands listed above, and make sure you Run the USB Driver Install as Administrator!
Finally, we have a decent gamepad to use in Windows, including 64-bit. Enjoy! Thanks to the folks at MotionInJoy for creating this driver.
*Note* Keep in mind that installing unsigned drivers is considered by Microsoft
to be a major security issue (or a major source of income, depending on who you listen to), so to use these drivers on a 64-bit OS, you will need to use F8 to boot every time. There are ways to permanently disable signed drivers in 64-bit Windows, but it is considered a major security flaw to do so, and is a major hassle to set up (and is constantly being patched by Microsoft). This will be the case with
any unofficial driver release, not just these ones. *Another Note* If you are having troubles getting the drivers to work after rebooting, even after using “F8″, try running the driver install script again . These drivers aren’t perfect, and can be a bit finicky, but they do work. And I think they are the only ones that work in 64-bit. 32-bit users might prefer to use the old drivers we talked about, if you do not need to use bluetooth .

We're very proud to present an IP driver for the Apple TV. It support all 3 generations from the big silver one through to the latest shiny black atv3 model.
The driver DOES NOT require you to jailbreak the Apple TV.
Adds all the same commands as the IR remote:
- Cursor control (up/down/left/right)
- Menu
- Select
- Play/Pause
Plus a few more:
- Jump to Home Screen
- Context Menu
- Play
- Pause
- Next
- Previous
- Shuffle
- Repeat
The trial version is available for download from our website.
I would love to hear your feedback...
Cheers,
Matt.

In particular, I'm wondering if it works well with the special AppleTV commands that are accessed via press-and-hold, versus just pressing a button.
Also, does it work with the latest AppleTV (the one with the fancy touchpad remote)? Of course I don't expect it to emulate the touchpad, but I'm wondering if it provides the same control you can get with the AppleTV on IR.
