The previous query of no previews was a case of not running Edit -> Reconfigure. To follow up on the command line testing Angus suggested, you could do that in LyX/Mac by starting % /Applications/LyX.app/Contents/MacOS/LyX in a terminal and watching the output as you run LyX. It will probably tell you what is awry. If LyX cannot find your LaTeX installation, and you did log out and log in again after installing LyX/Mac, the problem could be in your ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist file. LyX/Mac installs that automatically, or if the file exists tries to modify it to a safe path. If the file was broken, LyX/Mac may not be able to fix it. -- Ronald Florence www.18james.com
