Morris,
As others have stated, you may want to install CHIRP natively on your Mac.
But if you have installed CHIRP LiveCD properly on a USB drive and want to
give it a try, you would reboot your Mac and boot up using the OS on the
USB drive (completely bypassing the Mac OS). On a non-Mac computer you may
have to configure the BIOS to allow booting from a USB drive or at least be
able to choose to boot up from the USB drive. You may have to do something
similar on your Mac (I'm not a Mac person).
