I installed an quantlib on my mac, but have no idea, how to start using it with an excel. Please advise hoq to do it. I followed all instructions here: http://quantlib.org/install/macosx.shtml. I think I need a kind of add-in or so.

The QuantLib you installed is just a C++ library.
If you were on a Windows machine, you'd need the QuantLibXL addin to use it in Excel (http://quantlib.org/quantlibxl/). But on a Mac, you've no such luck. As far as I know, Excel for Mac only allows addins written in VBA, so QuantLibXL can't be built for it.

Deriscope is also an Excel addin that exposes almost all QuantLib pricing routines to Excel.
