I suspect your file has been saved as UTF8 (which you should use if at all possible anyway). So change the inputenc argument to 

	\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

and recompile. In my experience, UTF8 works best, but if you have cross-platform collaborators, you may need to work in latin1. I would strongly discourage you from using applemac encoding this day and age.
