The file to edit is ~/Library/TeXShop/Keyboard/autocompletion.plist
It contains lots and lots of things that you may not wish to have 
automatically replaced when using XeTeX. I pruned mine to the bare 
minimum:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" 
"http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
	<key>$</key>
	<string>$#SEL##INS#$</string>
	<key>[</key>
	<string>[#SEL##INS#]</string>
	<key>{</key>
	<string>{#SEL##INS#}</string>
	<key>`</key>
	<string>`#SEL##INS#'</string></dict>
</plist>

Are you using the utf8accents package? Look for it on the "Related 
Pages" section of the XeTeX website. I'm not sure, but I believe it 
will fix your problem too.

another unrelated message and deleting the text, since mail apps with
