There are several possible error sources:

• The application has been installed after Remote Buddy has already been launched

  For efficiency reasons, Remote Buddy only searches for supported applications when its started. If you have installed an application after launching Remote Buddy, please quit Remote Buddy and launch it anew.

• Oudated program versions

  The installed version of the program in question could be outdated and identify itself with a different Bundle Identifier than the version supported by Remote Buddy. This problem often occurs with Mplayer OS X. The most recent version of that application is not to be found on Sourceforge but on directly on the pages of Mplayer HQ.

• Custom menus

  If you use a custom menu in Remote Buddy and you don't make use of Remote Buddy's smart folders, the menu structure is static. You have to manually add the behaviour into a place of your choice in the menu.

• The behaviour is deactivated.

  Make sure, the checkbox in front of the Behaviour's name in the Mappings pane of the preferences is active.

• The Launch Services database is outdated.

  Remote Buddy uses Launch Services to check for the availability of an application on your Mac. If the Launch Services database of OS X is incomplete or outdated, so is Remote Buddy's dynamically created menu. The solution, though is easy. Download LSRefresh, launch it, select the application(s) that don't turn up in Remote Buddy's menu, wait until the update is finished and then restart Remote Buddy.

Please enter 0000.

There's a bug in the Bluetooth®-stack of OS X® 10.8/10.9 in the context of pairing a Sony® PS3 BD Remote. OS X® 10.8/10.9 will ask you to enter a PIN code when you try to connect your remote control. This problem is known by Apple®.

If you pair your Sony® PS3 BD Remote with your Mac® for the first time

1. Use Remote Buddy's Setup Wizard to pair your remote control
2. Restart your Mac® directly after the pairing was successful, while the remote is still connected.
3. The remote should now work without problems.

If you've already paired the Sony® PS3 BD Remote with your Mac®

1. 10.9 only: Try entering 0000 as PIN and reboot. If you're lucky, that was all you needed to do. If this does not solve your issue, please continue with the steps that follow.
2. First, we'll need to remove the Link Key of your Mac® from the memory of your remote control. Since this remote control can only store one Link Key, it's as easy as pairing the remote control with another Mac®. To do so, open System Preferences > Bluetooth on another Mac® and pair your remote with it.
3. All steps that follow should be performed on the Mac® that you want to use your remote control with.
4. Remove - if it exists - the entry of your remote control at Remote Buddy > Preferences > Hardware ® Bluetooth Receiver. The entry usually is titled "BD Remote".
5. If existant, remove the device "BD Remote" from System Preferences > Bluetooth.
6. Delete the Bluetooth preferences files by entering the following in Terminal.app and hitting return (Warning: this deletes all information about all paired Bluetooth® devices):

   sudo rm /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist
   sudo rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist
   sudo rm ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.Bluetooth.*.plist
   

   Please enter your admin password when requested. Then restart your Mac®.
7. Use Remote Buddy's Setup Wizard to pair your remote control
8. Restart your Mac® directly after the pairing was successful, while the remote is still connected.
9. The remote should now work without problems.
