#MICROSOFT WIRELESS GAMING RECEIVER FOR MAC DRIVER#

The older version of the driver used to work okay with this receiver.Īm happy to buy an official Microsoft receiver if that's the issue.

I thought that my receiver was an official Microsoft one, but I see it has 'XBOX 360' written on it and I see that ones listed as official have 'Microsoft' written on them, so maybe it's a counterfeit one.

I have tried everything mentioned above after ticking 'enable driver', but it still does not work.

I noticed that in the preference pane, under 'Advanced', the 'Enable driver' option is NOT ticked when I first installed the driver, and seems to become unticked after each restart of the computer.I have tried the instructions listed here:, which did not work for me.It just stays like this no matter how long I leave it or how many times I've tried (with each controller). After I switch on the controller and try to pair by pressing the button on the receiver (which starts flashing) and then pressing and holding the connect button on the back of the controller, what happens is that the light on the controller spins once (or twice sometimes) then all four lights around the circle flash on and off slowly (the receiver light becomes solid green).When I plug in the receiver, the green light goes on.The Xbox 360 Controllers preference pane appears fine.I have uninstalled the old version of the driver and have reinstalled the latest version from this site (Version 0.16.4).

#MICROSOFT WIRELESS GAMING RECEIVER FOR MAC MAC OS X#

I am now on Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 on a MacBook Pro 15' 2009 model.

When it used to work, it was one of the versions when the project was hosted at:.

It used to work - I think I upgraded Mac OS X since then (maybe that broke it.?).

My wireless Xbox 360 controllers (I have two) won't connect using the Xbox 360 wireless receiver for PC using this driver. Thanks for your great work on this project.
