I was led to believe a Xbox game pad can be used on an iMac to play call of duty, yet my mac doesn't recognise it

I was led to believe that an Xbox game pad can be used to play call of duty black ops on the iMac. I cannot seem to get mine to work. Is there an app or something needed for the computer to recognise it ?

I think Call of Duty doesn't support controllers due to the balance implications in multiplayer.

    Can I use any smart phone to play webcam flash games?
    I'd tried to use my smartphone ( Android 2.2 + Flash Player 10 ) to play some "webcam flash games" with browser, but all failed, is anything necessary must downloaded to smartphone first? or any other system (for example, IE9? Windows Phone 7?) can make it?

  • I need to open a DAT file and was led to believe that Firefox can locate the necessary software but I see to guidance having downloaded firefox browser (As advised)

    Grand Dad writes: I have received a DAT file which my computer cannot open. A series of windows led me to FileCure. The remedy proposed by FileCure was to use Fireox as my browser. Having done so, there appears to be no guidance on the Firefox website as to how to proceed. Two hours later and $27 poorer (FileCure fee) I seem to be no further forward. I tried dragging and dropping the DAT file onto the FileCure icon: no result! Anybody found a way to tackle this?

    I received an e-mail with an attachment .dat and went through
    the same steps with File Cure and than Firefox as listed above.
    I just want to open the attachment. How do I do this?

  • Can i use my iphone 4s to play games, surf internet and such without phone service? It says i need a sim insertwed to activate it.

    recieved phone from a friend.  I believe it to be a iphone 4s. I dont know from which carrier it originated CDMA or GSM.Turns on and begins setup. I enter my language and location , it begins to search for a wifi signal which is present then it says insert a valid sim card and it wont go any further than that. It tries to activate but then just says insert valid sim . I just want it too boot up so i can play games, apps, and surf web without phone service. Is that possible?  I knowe it is because i used to do it with my wifes iphone 4s

    You need a sim to activate an iPhone. The sim does not have to associated
    with an active account; however, if the iPhone is locked to a wireless provider,
    the sim must be from that wireless provider. Borrow an appropriate sim from
    a friend/relative/co-worker for the few moments it will take to activate the iPhone.
    You will need a sim in the iPhone to reactivate whenever you restore the iPhone
    or update the iOS.
    Call Apple to find the origin of the iPhone. You will need the serial number from
    the back of the iPhone. Or ask your friend - he should know the details about an
    iPhone he previously owned.

  • CAN I USE OLD PS2 CONTROLLER TO PLAY GAMES ON IMAC?

    Hi, I really want to dowload the star wars lego game for the imac but realise using th imac keyboard is not the best way to play. i ahve an original ps2 game controller with the square connector bit on the end and wondered if there is an adaptor for this to connect to a new imac 10.7?

    Once you have a PSX to USB adapter just get the Joystick Mapper App from the App Store and configure the controller.
    For the last part you can use step found here.

  • Can i use dualshock 4 on pstv playing ps4 games

    I dont have a vita nor will i ever own one. But i want to play ps4 games on another tv with the dualshock 4 if possible. Is it. Me and my roommate have 3 tvs and 1 ps4. Im willing to buy a pstv if remote play for the ps4 games will work with the dualshock4 and no vita. Or is pstv and remote play just for the psvita.
    Information on pstv can and cants is not really available. Info out there is lacking.
    Thanks in advance
    Josh

    Yes DS4 works on the PS TV for remote play as well as PS Vita games and PSOne games if you do happen to buy some. Also a word of advice if you plan on using remote play. If possible have your PS4 and PS TV connected to the router via cable. Do not use wifi as you will have a bad experiance. If you can't go wired then buy a pair of homeplugs. http://www.amazon.co.uk/TP-LINK-PA411KIT-Powerline-Adapter-Starter/dp/B0084Y9N3O/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1438824143&sr=8-1&keywords=homeplugs

  • Can you use your old iPhone to play games only

    why do i get n error message when trying to connect to itunes on a 3g

    There is some sort of software switch in iOS 6.  If the podcasts app is installed on the phone, then the default behavior of the Music app changes, and it will no longer display podcasts that are on the phone.  You can undo this behavior by deleting the podcasts app, and then restarting your phone once or twice.  After that, you should be able to see and play podcasts from within the Music app again (like you could in iOS 5). 
    Aftter doing this, the music app will also let you create on-the-fly playlists to which you can add podcasts.  I do this to queue up multiple podcasts for long commutes, so I don't have to fiddle with the phone while driving.

  • Xbox controller for Call of Duty 4

    Hello Guys, I have been playing call of duty 4 on my mac for a while. I am considering buying a xbox controller to play with. While I have played xbox before I definatly need practice to become good at it. On the other hand I do quite well with mouse and keys. Is the xbox controller going to give me better performance than mouse and keys? Or is it even worth my time. Thanks!

    I'm trying to find the same answer myself. Any luck? I called tech support and they said the game doesn't support it, but to look for a keyboard emulator program. You can view a thread I started here http://gamermodzforum.freeforums.org/viewtopic.php?p=10412#10412 regarding this same issue.

  • ARE THERE ANY 3RD PARTY 3D GAMES YOU CAN PUT ON YOUR iPOD????

    GAMES LIKE THE GAMES WE HAVE ON OUT IPODS NOW. I TRIED GOOGLEING IT BUT WHAT CAME UP WAS SOME WEIRD GAMES THAT WERE A STORY YOU HAD TO READ AND SELECT WHAT YOU WOULD DO.

    No, you cannot install third-party 3D games on your iPod.
    As you've found, there are some text based "games" you can load using the Notes feature of the iPod.
    For future reference, please do not post in all capital letters. In this forum, and many others, this is considered shouting. It's also difficult to read.

  • Xbox 360 Controller and Call of Duty 4

    I bought the Xbox 360 controller with the receiver and installed the driver on the Mac. The driver recognizes it wonderfully in System Preferences. Now, is there any way to use this device to play Call Of Duty 4? (for Mac... naturally).
    Has anyone been able to do so?
