I looked at the code. The Dictionary item in TeXShop Preferences is hooked to a piece of code named
"dictionaryPressed". The actual code for this procedure reads in 4.08

	(IBAction) dictionaryPressed: (id)sender
		{
			return;
		}

This is now fixed, and it will be fixed in the beta on the web in less than an hour. Every little bug report helps.
