If you used it at a friends house, it is synced with his/her PS3 now and you have to re-sync it to yours. Also, if you did grab the wrong controller, no big deal, you have to sync it to your PS3 anyway. Here's how to do it.
1) Manually turn on your PS3 using the power button on the PS3.
2) Take your USB charger for your controller and plug it into the USB port. (Do NOT turn on your controller yet!)
3) Plug the controller into the charger that is connected to the PS3 USB port.
4) Now turn on your controller using the middle "PS" button.
The lights will flash for a few seconds, and that will sync your controller to that particular PS3 system.

ok if you look under the controller just to the left of the l2 button is a small reset button press and hold it for a couple seconds, reconnect the usb and try again
I had the same issue, 2 of my four controllers stopped connecting, i reset them and BAM they work.
