Hi,
  To my knowledge, Apple's OpenGL implementation only works with
full-screen stereo, which is not supported by VMD. VMD requires
windowed stereo. If/when Apple supports stereo in a window, I'll
make every effort to add support for it in VMD by bugging the authors
of FLTK (the GUI toolkit VMD uses) to add the required code to FLTK's
window creation routines.

Thanks,
  John Stone
