My Bluetooth Device doesn't seem to be compatible with my iMac. Are there any work arounds?

[whizz_1990]

Hi There, My electric wheelchair has the ability for bluetooth. This should allow me to use the joystick as a bluetooth mouse. However, although my Mac is able to recognise the device, but it won't connect. The company that make the chair have assured me it is compatible with Macs as the wheelchair uses standard bluetooth HID drivers. The wheelchair connects perfectly to a Windows PC. Is there any way to work around this such as a windows bluetooth emulator that works with Mac? Bootcamp isn't really an option for me either.
