Check out this step-by-step tutorial on installing Ruby on Rails under OS X Mavericks

You can skip the section on installing MySQL if you want as it's not used in the Treehouse course.

If you have issues let me know which steps you completed successfully and at which point you got stuck.

Side note: If you are new to the terminal you'll probably want to do the Console Foundations course before taking on Ruby on Rails.

Do you have a ruby version installed? in terminal type

ruby -v

it should give you your version number. If not, vist https://rvm.io/rvm/install and follow the instructions on installing ruby and rvm. you can pass in specific version numbers in the command that is mentioned on the page.
