Do you see the Beamer class at all? If it's not there at all, even in
the "unavailable" list, then you're missing the beamer.layout file. What
version of LyX are you running? If 1.4.4, then the attached should work.
Just put it in your local LyX layout directory, probably
$HOME/.lyx/layouts/.

Look for beamer at the very beginning. It's listed as Beamer
Presentation Class, with a capital. Due to a bug, the classes are
listed in a bad order.

I did everything you mentioned, but i reopen lyx and go to document
settings and
in document class beamer is not an option.
If I go to Tools and Tex Information there it appears and it shows
me the path where it is
and everything. What should I do?

Hi, thanks for your response.
I do have lyx, but beamer is not a class. I already downloaded beamer
but I don't know where I need to put it and how to install it so that
it works with lyx.
Does anyone know?
This will depend how LaTeX is installed. Search for the file
"article.cls". Let's say you find it in
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/base/. Then you can put beamer.cls and all
the *.sty files in there if you wish, but it's better to put them in,
say, /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/beamer/, which you'll have to create.
Better yet, you can create a "local TeX tree" under your home
directory.
This local tree won't get overwritten by upgrades, etc, so it's a good
place to put anything you download yourself. Where it goes is
determined
by the texmf.cnf configuration file. There are some remarks about
how to
read it, etc., in the Customization documentation (Help>Customization,
section 5.1). Find this file and then look for the definition of
TEXMFHOME. It's usually $HOME/texmf or something similar. Suppose it's
that. Then you can put beamer.cls and the *.sty files in
$HOME/texmf/tex/latex/beamer/, which again you'll have to create. Note
how the structure of the local tree mirrors that of the main tree.
This
is important. The documentation you could put in
$HOME/texmf/doc/latex/beamer, say. Check out your main tree
(/usr/share/texmf, again, or something close to that) and see where
your
distribution has put similar things.
That said, I think that the Mac LaTeX distribution includes some
sort of
"package installer" that will download and install packages for you.
