Did you upgrade Mac OS X recently?

Can you invoke in Terminal: 'which ps2pdf13' ?

If the command above returned something sensible, can you update  
TeXShop's preferences with

	--distiller-path <the value returned above>

It won't solve the problem behind it all, it will only enable  
simpdftex to find the ps2pdf13 which it does not seem to find. A  
solution could be achieved by re-configuring your teTeX installation,  
i.e. launching i-Installer, choosing "Configure Only" and choosing  
the expert route – I think the latter has to be set in the  
preferences of i-Installer. Then check only CLI Path to be re- 
configured.

A newly launched TeXShop will run simpdftex in a better suited  
environment.
