It does not work except to charge the controller.
With the USB cord that came with the PS3 if pushing the PS3 symbol on the controller does not work
No it will not because the 360 controller is and can be wireless and plugs in via usb while the original xbox controller does not.
Take a controller that is appropriate for you, then find a way to hook it up to a wireless USB
you have to get the wireless gaming adapter that you hook up to your computer via a USB cable. then you can use your controller with your computer.Yes, you can use a controller charger in the USB port
If the controller plugs into a USB port, yes.
Mine, A red controller that came from Sony USA with the God of War games as a bundle and that currently fails to charge does not work when using the USB to provide power. Since I have many other controllers and multiple USB cables I have confirmed it is not the cable. The PlayStation 3 wireless controller may not work via the USB connection when it fails to charge because the USB cable might be faulty.
Yes. Take a mini USB from another device, like a camera or mp3 player. If it is the right type, it will fit into the slot on the controller and charge/sync it.
Even if the battery is low connecting the USB controller cable should allow the controller to connect when you press the PS3 emblem on the controller. Without another controller you can not tell if the PS3 or controller is the problem and does not work
Hi-Speed USB controller (version 2.0)merely transfers data a significantly higher rate than version 1.0. You can buy a 2.0 PCI card and install it in your computer yourself (will practically self install on a system with Windows XP)if you have need for faster download/transfer speeds. As the first answer says, speed is what it's about. I have seen one USB Flash Drive which would not work on USB 1.0, and a printer which would not reliably wake up automatically from energy saver on USB 1.0. Both of these were corrected by a switch to USB 2.0
To reset a PS3 controller to a different PS3 connect the controller to the PS3 you want to connect it to with a charge cable. Press the PS button and wait for it to connect to the new console. After it connects your controller will now work with the new PS3.
It will not work for the PS2 that's why it is called a PS3 controller and what you are talking about is not even a top PS3 controller, but a controller that isn't even the best of the cheaper PS3 controllers or the original equipment Dual Shock 3
