Look in your Goodies folder (9.0) for 3D Studio In and read the doc file there. (Move the addon into your addons folder, or load it from addon manager.)

This is way it is essential that everyone includes their version in the signature of every post (modify your profile).

All you needed to do is click on the "search" link and enter "3ds import" and you would find this message from Stefan with a Windows version of the 8.1 3DS importer:

Now, you will say you are on a Mac: that should be in your signature, too. 😉

Good luck!
