From the post on Joystiq, they couldn't get the Xbox X-plorer controller that comes with the PC/Mac version to work under OS X either. They were using it with Fret on Fire. OS X sees the device but it will not work. This was my experience as well. I had to install the Xbox 360 Controller driver (<a target="_blank" href="http://tattiebogle.net/index.php/ProjectRoot/Xbox360Controller/OsxDriver">http://tattiebogle.net/index.php/ProjectRoot/Xbox360Controller/OsxDriver</a>) and after setting that up, [hid] recognizes the device. I was able to test it, and everything is reading perfectly.</span><br><br>So have fun with your Guitar Heroes controller.
