Re: Unable to pair wy Wii remote (RVL-CNT-01)

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.
I just recently updated from 1.8.1 to 1.8.5, and I am now having the same problem listed by NeilM and others listed above. Specifically, when I try to connect my Wii Remote to Remote Buddy, the Setup Wizard hangs at "Pairing Successful. Establishing connection..." and the 4 blue LEDs on the Wii Remote start flashing and won't ever stop. I've waited about 10 minutes or so and nothing ever changes.

The odd thing is that Remote Buddy and the Wii Remote were pairing just fine a couple days ago before I updated to 1.8.5. I've tried all the things listed in the FAQs (replacing the batteries, using the 1&2-button method and the red-button method, waiting 1 minute after activating bluetooth before pairing, making sure the icon next to bluetooth receiver is green and not red, deleting and re-setting up the Wii remote with System Preferences->Bluetooth) but nothing seems to work.

I'm currently running RB on a 12" PowerBook G4 (PPC, of course) with Mac OS 10.4.11. I also just updated iTunes and QuickTime, but I doubt those updates would affect this. Also, I should mention that I'm still running RB in the 30-day trial mode (16 days left). I fully intend on purchasing a license at the end of the trial period, providing, of course, that I can get my Wii remote working again. But hopefully being in trial mode wouldn't affect something like this either.

Any ideas?
