In case anyone's still interested in this (I am, so found this thread), I've had luck with two things on OSX 10.10 Yosemite:
1) MagicPrefs. In the prefs, I set three-finger-click to Middle Click. Then a 3-finger-click gives me the pan (right term?) cursor in the viewport and I can either drag all three fingers to to the panning, or sometimes I have to use a fourth finger to do the movement. Not sure why it's inconsistent.
2) I have an old (at least 10 years now) Microsoft Trackball Explorer trackball, and the Microsoft Mouse (Microsoft IntelliPoint) system prefs works in OSX still. Set the Wheel Button to “Handled by Mac OS” and it works in Houdini as 3rd button. Sometimes after launching Houdini it doesn't work but going to MS Mouse prefs and reassigning Wheel Button to “Handled by Mac OS” makes it work again.
