First, this G5 is my first Mac, so I'm new at this. I have a Saitek Cyborg 3D Gold USB joystick that I used with my PC. I'm trying to get it to work in America's Army software. I checked the box labeled "enable joystick" but nothing happens.

Is there some way I can see if my joystick works or not? Saitek does not offer Mac drivers. I don't know how to open anything like "Device Manager" on my Mac because I'm new to this computer.

Can anyone help?

It sounds like that is a poor fix, at best. Isn't there anything else?
