MacMost Now 126: Using Your Mac and Wii Together

[samusaran190]

I done the WiiMote thing on my old pc. The IR Sensors are more accurate because of the Sensor Bar is IRs. But motion doesnt move as much

Whats the point of all this?

Why do I want to put music onto a Wii?

It goes like this..after hours of researching and downloading and plugging in bits and bobs and surfing websites to find out how to do it all I finally find out how to do it and I go wow! I have made it work...eureka!

Then I find out the result is pretty useless and then I ask why did I bother????

One potential use: You have music in your iTunes collection on your Mac in one room. You want to play that music in your living room where your Wii is located.

why am I getting some apache web server on the wii browser instead of the wii transfer

Sounds like your Mac isn't configured right. Contact the makers of the software or their support forum...

how did you get the internet on your wii? i have a wii and it has been updated after I saw this! plz help me!

[macmostvideo]

You might want to try a Wii forum for that. From what I remember, you just add the Internet application (Opera browser, actually). Of course you need a net connection too.

how do you add the app?

[macmostvideo]

I don't remember the exact place, but it is same way you purchase downloadable games and features.

[pepsipopup]

I was actually playing with the wii remote on my mac a week ago, but do u know why it always get disconnected while using?

[macmostvideo]

It didn't seem to stable for me either. One key was to turn off the Wii box completely, so it didn't try to communicate with the remote.

It's an very useful program!
