The PS3 comes with a controller charger. It is a USB cable and hooks right into the controller and system.

It should sinc if you push the PS button, but if not you can plug the controller into the playstation with the charger and then try againIf the controller is being connected for the for the first time and is not an official Sony ps3 controller and it is a ps3 compatible controller, connect the controller with a USB cable to the ps3, then under settings> device settings> register new device. This is how it works for Wired and Wireless headsets for the ps3 too.This sectional guide answer was modified by TechnoFixunder 'Modified for a wider understanding'.
You only need a cable and a USB plug
Usually if you plug the usb cable (controller charger cable) into the ps3 console and the ps3 wireless controller it will sync the controller with the console. I had this problem when I went to a friends house and brought my extra controllers. The Controllers just set there and blinked till I plugged it into his usb cable that hooked up to his ps3 console. Hope this helps
Either you need to:- - Charge the controller. - Turn the PS3 on and off again. - Put new batteries in the controller. - Or if you have more than 1 controller then you can use another one.
leave the PS3 turned on and change the settings to turn off the controller when the PS3 is turned off. You can turn the controller and the PS3 back on by pressing the PS3 emblem on the controller
