Perhaps the Mac's bios isn't configured to allow booting from USB media. I know I've had to get sighted assistance to fix the bios boot order on every laptop and desktop I've acquired since going blind before I could boot installation media to install Linux... I even had to do it for a netbook that came pre-loaded with Ubuntu if memory serves. 2. I could be wrong, but I believe the files needed for making a CD/DVD bootable and making a USB stick bootable are different. If so, even a properly written iso might not result in a bootable USB stick if the iso only includes the files needed for booting from CD/DVD. Again, no experience with making bootable USB sticks, so I might be horribly mistaken.
