Can't you just do Option+Enter? The instructions to update/restore from an IPSW file are to hold shift and then click "Check for Updates", but Shift+Enter does the job just the same so maybe Option+Enter will work on a Mac.
Keep in mind that the current Beta release of iOS 8 is Beta 2 and if you really have to rely on your device and want to be sure all apps work then running such an early Beta might not be ideal. You are likely to experience apps which won't work, situations where "normal" behavior is not working and a few crashes here and there. Early Betas often also don't have the full feature set.

Is there a special technique for installing an iOS beta onto a device on the Mac? I have the IPSW file, but can't seem to hold down option while clicking check for updates, as that interferes with Voice Over. Thanks in advance.
