The above is the same error that I kept getting. I am told that this is 
neither a TeXShop error code or a Lilypond error code. It is probably 
coming from Cocoa.

My sugggestions: Be sure that the Lilypond application is located in 
Applications, and not inside a folder.

Then, in the Terminal, cd your way to Library/TeXShop/engines, and make 
the engine executable by typing:

chmod 755 Lilypond-LaTeX.engine

Close then re-open TeXShop.

Then, try again.

Good luck.
