Hi!
I guess this is something custom wrote to your .emacs? Something 
starting with (custom-set-variables ...?

I'm new to emacs, so I don't know which is the "proper" way. If you do 
it without customize, you could add it to the TeX-command-list with 
something like:

(add-to-list 'TeX-command-list (list "View" 
"/Applications/Preview.app/Contents/MacOS/Preview %o" 'TeX-run-discard t 
t :help "Run Viewer"))

You may want to tweak this to run your Preview program with the 
inverse-search facility, if Preview supports this. If you're not sure 
what I mean have a look at 
<URL:http://xdvi.sourceforge.net/inverse-search.html>
and "7.2.1 Forward and inverse search" in the AucTeX manual.

Daniel.
