You will have to take a pair of pliers and rotate the calipar in a clockwise fashion while applying pressure. Be sure to line up the indentation on the calipar with the stubs on the brake pad.

Chances are when a brake caliper wont compress it is the type that must be turned and compressed at the same time and requires a special tool that you can borrow from a local chain auto parts like Auto Zone. That was the case on my 96 Buick Riveria rear disk brakes.
