Greetings,

Well, of course it depends where you have installed LilyPond. It is
possible, for instance that (like me) you have placed the LilyPond
application in a subdirectory of your main /Applications directory, in
which case you have to modify the configuration accordingly.

Another possibility is that you may be using a non-administrator user
account, and you may have unpacked the LilyPond app in your local
Application directory: in this case, the path may not look like
/Application/LilyPond.app/...
but more like
/Users/yourname/Applications/LilyPond.app/...

In other words, all you have to do is to make sure your LilyPond.app
package is indeed where you tell jEdit it is.

Cheers,
Valentin
