I have a G5 and a G7 that have the same problem: the side buttons are not working when I play WoW (World of Warcraft) but works just fine when used in other applications. I tried all kind of things and looked up forums for answers without any luck. Here's what I did:
1) In SetPoint 4.7 I create a profile for WoW
2) I change the setting of the side buttons (4, 5), the tilt buttons (6, 7), and the DPI buttons (8, 9), to Keystroke Assignment and assign a key to them (6, 7, 8, 9, 0, -)
3) I save the settings
4) Go to WoW and bring up the key assignment window
5) I make sure the key assigned to the buttons (6, 7, 8, 9, 0, -) are not in used
6) I tried to bind my buttons
5) Buttons 4 and 5 are not responding at all. Buttons 6, 7, 8, 9 can be binded just fine
Please help... this is driving me nuts

Hi
,
Have you tried assigning them to the 'Generic Button' function and binding them ingame? That works for some games.
