I'm trying to move some uvs, the manual says

To move UVs in the UV Texture Editor

In the UV Texture Editor, select Image > Display Image.
The texture image displays in the 2D view of the UV Texture Editor dimmed, as before. You need the image displayed so you can accurately reposition the two UV shells. Dimming the image aids in seeing the selected UVs.
In the UV Texture Editor, right-click and select UV from the marking menu that appears.
In the UV Texture Editor, select one UV on the UV shell you sewed earlier in the lesson.
The UV coordinate appears highlighted in the 2D view.
Convert the selection to a UV shell by pressing the Ctrl key and right-clicking in the 2D view of the UV Texture Editor. Choose To Shell from the marking menu that appears.

Which is all well and good on a PC, but on a mac the control key is a left click, so what are you to do to activate the green UV things ?

how do you use the smudge tool on a mac ?

It means that you have to click Ctrl, and then Right Mouse Button. Then select "To Shell".

Was this your doubt. I tried on Mac and it works.

It works exactly the same way on the mac: right click -> select "UV" in the contextual menu. the ctrl-right click brings up the "convert selection" menu.
Don't tell me you're using Maya with a single button mouse. :-)
