joystick buttons not being recognized

trying to assign button 5 but it doesn't register in the controls assignment panel...all other buttons are seen and button 5 works in other games.Also I have an X-55 which is a hotas...only half of the hotas is recognized(it has 2 parts therefor 2 usb connections) tried to assign key inputs to the rudder twist on the joystick via profile and that doesn't get recognized either.worked in 4.0.

I use the manufacturer's programming software (Saitek SD6 Profile Editor) with my X52. I'm not sure if they make a version for the X55 or X56 - mine doesn't list them. But if they do, I'd recommend using it. It gives you many more options in terms of assigning functions to the stick and throttle. For instance: I was able to set the throttle to control the speed of a vehicle. It took some doing but in the end, I was able to use it as a true HOTAS for SB.

problem is that SB doesn't recognize more than 1 controller...X-55 is two components( 2 usb connections) not one unlike the  X-52 which was all 1 unit ( 1 usb connection)

 

I managed to solve the rudder problem by switching from joystick to control handles and using the profile software. So I can steer using twist
