When I press apple button+R to typeset and view, I get transferred to the Preview window but it does not show me the current pdf only the previous one. Is there someway to correct this so that it refreshes the pdf it is displaying?
Thanks, Christopher

Do you mean that it will not refresh the pdf after changes have happened to it and you have recompiled, or that if you compile a completely different file? If it is the former, then it is Preview.app's fault, and the only solutions I can think of would involve using AppleScript and slightly hacking Preview.app to allow AppleScript to drive it.
I would suggest using a different previewer, and in particular TeXniscope. Or you could use the TeXShop previewer, though that does not do pdfsync with TextMate (to my knowledge).
If the problem is that it will not show you a completely different file, then this is unexpected behavior and we can see what steps to take to troubleshoot it.
