I Have a new MacBook Pro. With Catalina 10.15.2 OS. When I go to import from a Uwatec vendor I don’t see the Galileo Luna Dive Computer

The Galileo Luna is not supported with Subsurface on a Mac.

Let me expand on Dirk's answer: MacOS (as opposed to windows and Linux) has no operating system support for IRDA, the protocol used for the infrared connection. That is why subsurface cannot handle infrared connections on Macs (it would have to implement the whole IRDA communication stack which is nowhere in sight and in times of more and more dive computers speaking bluetooth not a top priority). You could either use another download software (that goes the way of implementing its own IRDA stack) or run Windows or Linux in a virtual machine.
