Here is my (possibly incorrect) interpretation, and how to fix it: You have updated to the most recent context without updating texexec (and pssoibly related packages). To do so, uninstall your entire TeX tree (grin) by either doing this in i-Installerm or by removing the i-Packages directory from your home directory. Otherwise, i-Installer will always default to your older installation setup. You might also want to erase /usr/local/teTeX. Then start again i-installer (get the most recent), and set it up to expert mode, which lets you select the most recent TeX installation. Follow the instructions at http://www.uoregon.edu/~koch/texshop/texshop.html to select the packages, and don't forget to install ConTeXt. I suggest keeping an old installation on another boot partition or backup drive, I can't guarantee that certain things will not look different.
