It has absolutely nothing to do with TeXShop. TeXShop is just an  
editor that allows to invoke some TeX related machinery to create  
some TeX output.

MacTeX is differently installed, but it brings also i-Installer which  
you can use afterwards for tweaking the system.

AFAIR i-Installer did some conversions of the original Latin Modern  
fonts with fontforge. This conversion only happens when fontforge is  
found. Could be MacTeX runs into some race condition that it fails to  
do the conversion.

I neither use MacTeX nor i-Installer, but I am confident that once  
you've managed to install fontforge (from its i-Package or from  
MacTeX) into /usr/local and you invoke i-Installer to re-configure  
only, that the conversion will happen!
