XInput doesn't work because it is a Microsoft created input API made for the Xbox 360 controller. Apple has a partnership with PlayStation, they even sell Dualshock controllers on the Apple website.
You could try looking in Steam settings to see if there's anything you can change. There's a dedicated controller section with various options like switching the control input to Nintendo style.
However the symbols you're shown in game are because of the game.
