WIImote recognized, but buttons don't work!

Good morning everybody, I'm trying to make it work a Wiimote on OSX Mountain Lion with Dolphin that says "1 connected".
But when I launch the games, buttons are not recognized. The controller shows 1 led turned on. Any help?? Thank you!

Well, i get the same error in some situations. I have connected the wii remote plus and it works as expected in some games. I have no sensorbar.
When in some games I cannot use the d-pad in the main menu to select the challenge. Also when i press the home button to acces the menu I cannot select any option(is that normal?).

I am pretty new to this but trying my best to search around getting things working.

After the hassle to connect the wii remote to my pc. My 4 year old daughter can play Mario Karts and she loves it. I would however like to play some other games with her and expect a long journey ahead to get it all workng.

Hoping to getthis resolved soon, any help is welcome.

Hmmm... I think I need a sensorbar for the pointer to show. Is that correct? Going to try the candle trick first to try.

that's it you need a sensor bar (candle work very well even 1 lighter work for the menu) 2candle per day or a sensor bar ~10$

you can use your mouse for the IR pointer, with Hybride Wiimote

Yep, fixed it for me. Used two candles, will get a sensorbar asap.

My problem is different. I have Mario Power Tennis, but if I select Real Wiimote I can't pass the screen "press one key to continue". But the strange thing is that Dolphin says me "1 connected". How to solve??

Mario Power Tennis is a Gamecube game?

you have to configure GCpad and not Wiimote

Mario Power Tennis is a GC game but he might be playing Wii version of this game though ( http://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=Mario_Power_Tennis_%28Wii%29 )
