I've been reading through every thread, youtube comment, blog possible to figure out why i cant get my Wired 360 controller to work with the Tattiboogie drivers. Everytime I plug my controller in the only result I get is consistent flashing lights. My mac recognizes the controller when i open about my mac/usb hub. But the drivers wont work. Any help please. Im new to Mac and really trying to start a little gaming on here.

I know it seems like a stupid suggestion... but have you tried restarting your computer? Try reinstalling the driver and restarting the computer before plugging in your XBOX 360 controller (also assuming it is an official controller?)

I thought that once also, load the driver, lights flicking, now lets play, it does not work that easy sadly, read on.

if you have the xBox 360 controller plugged in and the lights within the driver are flicking when you press buttons and move joyticks then the controller is being recognised you are halfway there.

You then need to setup the controller for said game/games using a program called ControllerMate

Oops, I use a Wireless Xbox 360 controller, never tried all this with a wired one, sorry.
