So I have wallet, MacMiner (For my macbook pro), Crypto Miner on my Nexus 7, and an account for a mining pool (litecoinpool.org).
My Nexus has been mining, but not my mac. I have tried CPU and GPU and they won't work. Here are my MacBooks specs: 4gb ram, 1024mb intel HD GPU, Core i5 2.5Ghz and OS X 10.9.5 (I haven't gotten Yosemite yet). I have been trying to find something easy to mine for a week now. For some reason I picked Litecoin. So here is what I have put into Pool settings (with MacMiner): for Pool URL: stratum+tcp://us.litecoinpool.org:3333. For user I have clonecc45.Macbook (should I drop the clonecc45. part?) which is my worker username. For password it is the same as my worker password. I have it set to "set up a pool for Scrypt (LTC, DOGE, etc)" which is right. Under CPU Miner Options...: Threads: all (I will prob move to 2 or 3) Mine: Scypt Enable debug output = OFF Enable quiet output = OFF and Nothing is under manual flags. I click start and...

[2015-03-03 01:16:02] Starting Stratum on stratum+tcp://us.litecoinpool.org:3333
[2015-03-03 01:16:02] Binding thread 0 to cpu 0
[2015-03-03 01:16:02] Binding thread 1 to cpu 1
[2015-03-03 01:16:02] Binding thread 2 to cpu 2
[2015-03-03 01:16:02] 4 miner threads started, using 'scrypt' algorithm.
[2015-03-03 01:16:02] Binding thread 3 to cpu 3
[2015-03-03 01:16:05] Stratum authentication failed
[2015-03-03 01:16:05] ...retry after 30 seconds

Nope... As for GPU Miner Options: Intensity: 4 Work size: auto Vectors: auto Enable quiet output: no Dynamic intensity: no Override default: Yes (for work size) No (for vectors) Enable debug output: no Mine: Scrypt  Shaders: auto Lookup gap: auto Tread concurrency: auto Manual flags: nothing. I click start and:

dyld: Library not loaded: /Applications/MacMiner.app/Contents/Resources/bfgminer/lib/libbase58.0.dylib
  Referenced from: /Users/edshail/Desktop/MacMiner.app/Contents/Resources/bfgminer/lib/libblkmaker_jansson-0.1.6.dylib
  Reason: image not found

So can someone help?

The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

I can help you ...

It's useless to mine a scrypt coin with cpu oder gpu, you wouldn't even mine 1 LTC in a year 24/7 mining. You are at least two years late.

Generaly don't mine with a notebook, you will brick it sooner or later. When mining, the cpu/gpu are under full load, notebooks are not build for such a permanent load.

Scrypt coins are mined with ASICs nowadays. If you want to mine for fun then buy a ASIC miner. If you want to make instant money don't buy one, you wouldn't even get a ROI.

Better invest the money in some coins and wait a couple of years. If the whole cryptocurrency stuff will go mainstream maybe you will be rich then, if not you will loose your whole investment.
