Open a new terminal window
and do

. /context/tex/setuptex /Applications/ConTeXtMinimals/tex

Then you can use ConTeXt, in that window only. You have to do this step 
every time. OR, you can add the same line into your .profile ; then 
setuptex will be performed automatically every time you open a new 
terminal window. (If you plan to use another TeX installation very 
often, the .profile method might not be convenient. For me it works 
fine.)
