It probably does but, you just aren't giving it enough time to charge. If you are make sure the remote is actually plugged into the charger. The remote won't turn on because it might still need a charge.
I found that I needed to auto turn off the controller in settings when I turned off the PS3. I also did not realize that they do not recharge while the PS3 system is off and they will lose there power if not turned off.

If you are not on a PS3 you don't
Yes if you are using the PS3 to charge it. You should also know that if you do not go to your settings menu and set the PS3 to automatically turn off the controller it will always need a charge because it will stay on when you turn your PS3 off.
To connect a PS3 controller to a PC you need to download a program such as MotioninJoy.
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.
No you need to set your PS3 to automatically turn off your controllers and if you plan on charging them between uses set the PS3 auto off for long enough to allow the charge and make sure you do not turn the PS3 system off when you quit playing. If you turn the PS3 off it will not charge the controller and then go off. My Sony HDTV has a USB port and I use that to keep the controller charged as any USB port can be used to charge a controller. I also purchased a pair of Sony Controller cables like the original equipment at amazon for only $10 although sometimes the price increases
