didvx player is usualy an option to install , so check whats included, if you go to divx.com the install pack will include it. Normaly pos it up on the desktop, however I dont use the divx player since it s crap, bsplayer works best for me, dont know what u have in a mac but conce the codec is installed then a generic player should work.

IIRC, Divx is installed as a QuickTime component, so you can view the movies in QuickTime Player. At least, that's what I do on my Powerbook.
