im using bfgminer with my USB's with no problems =]

Well, I need some help. My BlockErupters have came and I have installed all the drivers and required stuff. The problem I have is that BFGMiner does not recognize my USB Miners. Also, for some weird reason, I cannot go to /dev to check on the miners, whether they have been recognized or not. Finder keeps telling me that I have no /dev folder at all O_o.

Your /dev folder is hidden (as are most *nix based system directories). Use the terminal to verify your drivers are working. From the terminal command-line:
ls /dev/cu.*

You should see items with names that have UART in them... those are your Block Erupters. You may also see 2 BlueTooth related items, ignore those.

If you're seeing all your block erupters, you can startup BFGMiner with the right parameters to initialize/find them.

For BFGMiner versions 3.1.3 or lower:
-S all --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100

For the lastest BFGMiner versions 3.1.4 or higher:
-S erupter:all
