How strange! I just checked and it does for me. Just to be sure: in  
the ``Document'' tab of Preferences, I have checked ``Configure for  
External Editor'', and in the ``Preview'' tab ``Automatic Preview  
Update''.

Then you have to quit TeXShop, typeset in Emacs and open the PDF  
again in TeXShop (I have configured Emacs to use TeXShop as the  
default PDF viewer, so for me this is automatic).

Hope this helps.

Best
