Howdy,

TeXShop 2.29 was inserted in the MacTeX-2009 installer (I think it was December) just before it was frozen for creation of the the TUG DVD. If ``actualization'' means ``update'' (sorry, my knowledge of German is barely non-zero) it may be that the system for updating isn't set up yet; I'm sure Dick Koch will take note.

Good Luck,
