often means that you do not have a compiler set up (note that Code::Blocks is an IDE (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=FAQ#Q:_What_is_Code::Blocks.3F), not a compiler (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=FAQ#Q:_What_Code::Blocks_is_not.3F)).
See installing a compiler (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Installing_a_supported_compiler) and troubleshooting (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=FAQ#Q:_How_do_I_troubleshoot_an_compiler_problem.3F).

By the way, when posting log output, could you please use code tags?

Note: I have no experience on a Mac, so there could be something obvious I have misunderstood/not noticed.
