Greetings - It does not really appear like there should be any additional software 'download and install' to get the your iMac to work with your companion 5 - It is merely said that you are to hook it up > go to Utiliy Folder and open the Audio MIDI Setup and configure it under Bose preferrence. If this seem not possible, try restarting the computer and open the Audio MIDI Setup agian.
Hope this help

Hope that is helpful.
