Hi Alan,

A few weeks ago Steffen Wolfrum and myself reported the issue to Richard Koch who did some research and discovered the origin of the problem. He has written again the part of the code related to synctex and ConTeXt and will issue a new version where the problem is fixed.

In the meanwhile you can use a previous version of TeXShop (I use version 77 and I can send you a Dropbox link to download it, of you wish) where the syncing between the PDF result and the ConTeXt source works fine.

Best regards: OK
