Yes

Buy an official controller. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but rarely are third party controllers even remotely close to the quality of Sony ones. PDP are one of the many bad ones.

Is it an original controller or an aftermarket one? But anyway seems to be a Bluetooth issue. Make sure your ps3 is not tucked away in an entertainment center. That could block the signal. Next plug the controller into the ps3 via the USB cable, see if that works. If so, then go into settings, reassign controller. See if that helps. If not then buy a new controller.

Yes you can, if it's not a mac you will need to download a program to make it work though. If you want I can send you a link.

bring it back and get a sony

Have you tried a temporary sync?

If you don't know how to do this then all you gotta do is:

* With a Wii remote that is already synced Press the Home Button.
* Pick Wii remote settings, located at the bottom.
* Select Reconnect.
* Press 1 & 2 on the Rock Candy remote and see if that works.

Sadly this only lasts till the Wii is turned off.

I don't know if it works for the Rock Candy remote, but I hope it does until a more permanent solution turns up for you.

To connect any form of controller to your Wii, you need to flip open the flap on the front of the Wii system. There should be a small red button. You must hold that, and then push a pin into the small hole on the back of the controller (There should be a round red button inside of that as well) and hold them for a few seconds. This will automatically pair the controller and system.

After installing batteries in the controller and inserting the usb stick into your PS3, hold down the home button (the round middle most button with a house on it) for a few seconds until the light on the controller illuminates. This is your indicator your controller is paired with your PS3 and should be assignable and usable at this point.
