If the device you bought is the USB 2.0 Dazzle Video Creator Plus, you may be able to use it to import video directly into iMovie. I cannot make any guarantees, though. Pinnacle does sell a device fore Mac which is strikingly similar.

As for running the software, you would need a copy of Windows, and a free program like VirtualBox (or non-free software like Parallels or VMware Fusion), but it is hard to be certain the software will work inside of a virtual environment.
