Pairing PS3 controller with Blu-ray Remote Control?

Just purchased new PS3 playstation bundle that included Sony blu-ray remote control. I have followed instruction on how to pair PS3 controller with the remote control but was unsuccessful. I've tried pretty much everything -

- changed batteries in remote control several times

- updated PS3 console to latest version

- turned off and turned on PS3 console several times

Nothing seem to work. Instruction says to simultaneously press Start button on PS3 controller and Enter Button on Remote control. I've tried it at least 20 times already in the last week and no luck. Not sure what else I can do. Any suggestions? Please don't give me answers I already stated above. Thanks

    You are reading the instructions wrong. You pair the Remote with the PS3, not the controller.

    The Remote Control has both a START and ENTER button. You don't press any button on the controller, they are all pressed on the Remote Control.

    How to set up the Sony Bluetooth Remote Control: Go to the set-up screen (XMB > Settings > Accessory Settings > Register BD Remote Control > now press START and ENTER on the Remote Control (START is next to SELECT, below the PS button, ENTER is the center button of the circle that has the up, down, left, and right arrows, above the PS button) and hold them until the screen changes. The screen will say "Registering..." At this point, you can let go of the buttons. The Remote will finish registering, and once it has, you can now use the remote.

    Again, this is all done on the Remote Control. Hide the controller so it doesn't jump back in your hands while your trying to pair the remote to the PS3.
