Harshajv,
Download the newest version that Uwe posted (link below)…I am using it successfully with Mavericks 10.9.1 MacOSX.

Java is required. If not installed, download from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572
I have working with Mac OSX 10.9.1. However, I have to try several times. So, my suggestion to you, Harsha, is that you load and unload the software 3 or 4 times.
Running Mac 10.7.5 on an Intel Chip (I can’t wait to update next fall).
I’m getting a black screen after calibration with the pointer (but the mouse cursor continues to show up). Any ideas??? Thanks!
…I wonder… since java… would it work on my touchscreen phone with a broken resistive touchscreen? Could be handy to make it useable again. Either way I need a bluetooth card now :(
I have a macbook 15 inch, Late 2011. When I download the app for Mac OS, and I load it, it often quits unexpectedly. Is this a common problem, and is there anything I can do to solve this? Thanks.
Also, when I load it, when i move my IR pen one way, it goes the opposite direction. Is there any way to fix this?
Hi Adrian,
Although I am only getting my setup shortly, This sounds like you just need to re-calibrate the sensor.
You might have clicked the calibration points in the wrong sequence.
Many Thanks my friend :) i will do it right away :)
I have this new Wii remote, just bought it a month ago, and i use mac os x 10.9.2, I downloaded the newest version of the wiimote software and the bluetooth is On and I open the app, but there is always the Searching tab, and even my wiimote keeps its 4 blue LED blinking if i press 1 and 2 buttons, but the software never detects it.
i don’t have a Nintendo, i bought a new wii motion plus remote for my presentation but its not working….
please help me somebody :)
many thanks in advance
Please help! I bought the original wii motion plus inside (rvl-036). I use Windows 7 32-bit, L420 lenova laptop.
I pressed 1 and 2 button, the 4 lights blinks. I tried connecting the bluetooth (which is inbuilt) but this remote is not getting recognized and the blinking doesn’t stop.
Please help.
Hello all,
I am running Windows7 and have a Rock Candy wiimote. I’m having trouble with issues such as winsock not supported and hid device list errors. I believe the culprit may be the bluetooth radio.
Can any of you Windows users please tell me what brand of bluetooth you use?
Is it possible to run on an android device? anyone tested it?
thanks
Hi to all, I run wiimote whiteboard on a MacBook Pro, with Os X 10.9.3 (aka Mavericks). Everything works like a charm: the wiimotes are detected, then registered by the app, I can calibrate, and then… big surprise! If the video mirroring option is set on ON (LCD screen & video projector show the same image), there’s no problem. If the vide mirroring option is set on OFF (2 independent displays), then the cursor is about 2 centimetres ABOVE the actual position of my IR pen. Has anyone been encountering the same symptom? Is there a trick? Is it due to the difference in resolutions? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. François.
Hello,
je suis surpris que ça puisse marché avec Mavericks Mac Os 10.9.3, parce qu’il n’y a plus dans utilitaires Bluetooth de l’ordinateur, la possibilité de choisir les appareils qui doivent ou ne doivent pas fonctionner, donc aucune possibilité pour laisser la main à WWb, comment as tu fait ?
Bravo FB
pour y arriver sous maverick. tu déconnecte la manette via le raccourci en haut. ça fiât planter l’association puis tu laisses fonctionner WiimoteWhiteboard et tu réappris sur les touches 1 et 2 et là ça fonctionne. Tu peux le vérifier en regardant le menu log du logiciel. Bon courage en attendant une modification du logiciel.

Hi,
I am wondering if this software can be used with a generic wiimote and not an official nintendo wii controller? I am tight on budget and generic wiimotes are just less expensive where I lieve (Sweden)…
Yes and no. When we set up our store we tried a wide number of alternative 3rd party Wii remotes and they all connect and ‘work’ BUT…we never found one with the same standard of camera as the official Nintendo Wii remote. Typically 3rd party remotes have to be much closer, <3 metres whereas the official version was ok up to double that distance. Also with 3rd party remotes we found drawings were less accurate - in our test we drew circles and most 3rd party remotes had at least 3 straight lines!
Hi,
i made all these steps but it doesn’t work. Wiimote-Whiteboard Software doesn’t detect the wiimote. i have a OS X 10.9.4 and i tried it with a old wiimote and a new wii MotionPlus. i also tried other suggests to solve the problem (Load the sofware a few times new, be sure that the wiimote isn’t paired with your macbook and so on). Is it a common problem depending on 10.9.4 or is perhabs a problem of my new macbook air, which i bought one month before.
Any ideas why the software doesn’t detect the wiimotes ?
Need Help! I’m going nuts!
Cheers! Daniel
