Nowhere you select Gentium. Something like this might be helpful:

	\usepackage{fontspec}
	\defaultfontfeatures{Mapping=tex-text}
	\newfontinstance\fonta{Gentium}
	%\newcommand\basetext{\fonta\fontsize{12}{14}\selectfont}

or simpler:

	\defaultfontfeatures{Mapping=tex-text}
	\setromanfont[Scale=1.01]{Gentium}	% Scale is nonsense without a non- 
serif font


	\usepackage[applemac, utf8x]{inputenc}

is nonsense IMO. The text body is completely UTF-8. Make sure your  
text editor saves the file correctly. Could be this packages turns  
Greek into something like nothing.

Try to read some documentation on XeTeX and the fontspec package!


There is a specialised mailing list on Xe(La)TeX: http://tug.org/
