If you don't mind trying I'd suggest the 2.13 version - I know it is unstable
but I had the same problems as this fellow here. You click on the menus and
they turn blue but not much else.
However i KNOW the 2.13 works because it was me that did the screenshots for
the 2.13 mac os section in the learning guide.
Try that...see if that at least gets you going.

Sorry, I can't help you. Amazing as it sounds, the instructions in
the documentation http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/
lilypond-program/Setup-for-MacOS-X#Setup-for-MacOS-X actually worked
for me, so I've never used any of the methods on the website, except
to see how jEdit fared as an editor. This entire conversation,
however, presumes that you've read and understand the basic LilyPond
concepts outlined at http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/
lilypond-learning/Compiling-a-file#Compiling-a-file, again, these
instructions are explained elsewhere, and probably better, but it's
what worked for me.
