From Ville's printouts, it seems that lilypond crashes in the middle of the processing, but lilypond -V test.ly should reveal more details.
Could it possibly be related to in what format the text file is saved. If you use an editor that uses the old Mac convention for line endings, then lilypond might fail, but I've got the impression that that convention is almost never used anymore. Anyway, I would recommend to use a text editor that saves the file using latin1 character encoding (also called ISO5589-1 encoding).

I'm using Lilypond 2.4.5 on Mac OS X 10.3.8. I'm trying to get the hang of this but don't seem to get any output. I created the test file test.ly containing { c'4 e' g' } on my desktop and tried running lilypond in the terminal. This is what happened:
Odd. I just tested it on my OSX system, and I got the following:
---- spark:~/tmp gperciva$ lilypond foo.ly GNU LilyPond 2.4.5 Processing `foo.ly' Parsing... Interpreting music... [1] Preprocessing graphical objects... Calculating line breaks... [2] Layout output to `foo.tex'... Converting to `foo.dvi'... Converting to `foo.ps'... Converting to `foo.pdf'... spark:~/tmp gperciva$ ----
Could you try running it again with -V ? lilypond -V test.ly
Oh, and did you make sure to quite your current terminal window and open it again? You need to do that after installing lilypond.
