A step-by-step video tutorial: How to connect Dualshock 3 controller to Mac OS X Lion via Bluetooth connection.

1. Open Bluetooth from system preferences
2. Get Dualshock 3 to ask passcode by pressing PS button on your controller
3. Enter new passcode (for example "xxxx" or "1234")
4. Now the controller should appear "Connected". Select it, then click little gear in the bottom left corner and select "Add to favorites" and click then "Update services"
5. Turn off Bluetooth before the computer asks again to pair up the controller. When controller's lights have ceased blinking, turn Bluetooth back on.
6. Plug the controller back in using USB, the lights should now flash slower. Press PS button once, unplug USB, the controller should be connected in a few seconds and the lights will turn off.
