The easiest immediate cure is to give up on texshop (for now) and just
type the following in the Terminal (after changing into the directory
that has your .lytex file, say filename.lytex) WAIT! Also change
\usepackage[dvips]{graphicx} to \usepackage{graphicx}. Now you can
type the following:

PATH=$PATH:/Applications/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin
lilypond-book --pdf filename.lytex
/usr/texbin/pdflatex filename.tex

Note that the command that starts with "PATH" and ends with
"filename.lytex" should all be typed on a single line, and that's two
dashes before "pdf". The above also assumes that you have installed
Mactex 2007 or a recent gwtex (as opposed to say tetex from fink). Of
course, change "filename.lytex" to whatever the name of your file.
