To be fair, getting FTB set up correctly *does* take a little digging around if you haven't done it in a long time and Setting Up Things isn't your bag.

Drew, if you want to check it out, here are some instructions:
  1. Go to http://www.feed-the-beast.com/ and hit the appropriate Download Client button. For a Mac, you want the jar file.
  2. Once downloaded, put the jar somewhere you don't mind it installing a bunch of files (I threw it into a folder of its own) and double-click the downloaded launcher jar.
  3. It'll ask you where to put its support files. If you moved the jar into a folder, it should have automatically selected that folder. That's probably good enough, but you can pick a different location if you want. Just be sure it doesn't default to your Desktop or Downloads folder because it'll clutter them up really quickly.
  4. Wait. It's going to download a bunch of stuff.
  5. In the long list of modpacks, look for "Direwolf20 Pack (v5.3.2) Minecraft Version 1.4.7". There are multiple Direwolf20 packs; be sure you select that one.
  6. To the top-right of the window is a menu that should have "Recommended" selected. That's the version, and you need to change it. Set that to 5.1.1.
  7. To the bottom-right of the window, click the "Select Profile" menu and choose "Create Profile". Enter your Minecraft login credentials.
  8. Click Launch!
  9. Wait for lots more things to download and unpack!
  10. Once it's finally loaded, enter this as the server address: mc.applenova.com:25566
