Re: MiKTeX won't download with LyX
Michael > "Downloading MiKTeX failed. Would you like to try again? (HTTP/1.1 404 Not > Found)" I installed Lyx 2 on Windows 7 yesterday and got this exact same error. I continued with the install, assuming I would need to install MikTeX after Lyx had completed. However, during the install I clicked on the details button and was able to watch Lyx configure Latex (suggesting it had in fact downloaded MikTeX) and indeed it is working fine, in spite of that error.

MiKTeX won't download with LyX
MiKTeX is supposed to download when I install LyX. But not for me. I have been trying to download LyX for the first time. I am using Windows XP and my computer does not have MiKTeX installed on it yet. First I downloaded the installer (specifically, LyX-2.0.0-3-Installer), and then I ran it. I chose the defaults in installation ("Install for anyone using this computer", then "Download MiKTeX", and the default destination folder, C:\Program Files\LyX20). The installer worked for a while successfully. But when the installer window showed "Downloading LaTeXSetup.exe", I got a popup window with the error message "Downloading MiKTeX failed. Would you like to try again? (connecting to host)" I then tried clicking "yes" and soon got a similar popup, though not identical: "Downloading MiKTeX failed. Would you like to try again? (HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found)" I clicked "yes" several more times (getting one popup message or the other). After I clicked "no", I ended with a copy of LyX which had no MiKTeX. My computer is indeed connected to the Internet, so downloading MiKTeX shouldn't be a problem. I even tried waiting several days and then re-installing LyX from the start (over the previously downloaded version). 1) Why won't MiKTeX download automatically, and is this problem likely to be fixed soon? 2) Should I just download MiKTeX from another source? Any suggestions from where? Once I do, should I re-install LyX, or is there a way to alert LyX to the presence of the newly-downloaded MiKTeX? Thanks in advance to anyone who can help! ---Michael Maltenfort

My workaround is to make sure that the path is correct when I Add the bibliography. I've not been able to reproduce it with any reproducible steps. I simply try again.

Install lyx 2 in windows with 1.6.10
I have a fresh windows xp machine and already installed lyx-1.6.10 using altinstaller-complete (including miktex 2.9). Is that possible to have lyx 2, while maintaining 1.6.10 in the machine. If it is possible, which lyx 2 installer that I can use. Thank you for any information waluyo
Problem with lyx 2 on Mac
Hi All, I am encountering problem I never did with the previous lyx version for mac. I use bibdesk to create my bibliography data and use insert ---> list/toc to include file in the my document. This was perfectly working for all documents creating in the previous version of lyx but doesn't work for documents created in the new version. For old documents, it perfectly works even in the new version of lyx. However, any new file I create in the new version can not read the bibliography data. I checked the latex error message. It simply says "undefined path" I now want to go back to old lyx but it is not available for download. Please help; this is very URGENT!! Sam
Re: Icons
I had just discovered that-- are there icons that will not be shown if I use the CLASSIC set?

In the old (classic) icon set, the icons for open and print are on the diagonal. Could that be done here to make a clearer distinction? (2) The emphasis-noun-apply last group: in each case the major part of the icon is the letter A with a smaller distinguishing part. Perhaps that should be reversed -- the distinguishing part enlarged and the A reduced? I agree that the icons should be distinctive even at first glace -- not only for older eyes but also for small screens. As a quick workaround, you can customize LyX to use the classic iconset.

Bibtex-References do not go on the next page, if one is full
Hi folks, I have the following problem with Lyx 2.0: When creating a References list with my Bibtex-Database (which is managed in Jabref), the references simply go down the whole first page over the pagenumber and so on, until the last half of one entry can be seen and then the page is over... this is obviously not a good status...changing document class (I use normally koma-script) or the references-list-design does not help, also deleting and creating new does not change anything... I had some stuff more in the latexthingy but now I have removed everything except \@ifundefined{rotatebox} {\usepackage{graphicx}}{} Still, no solution... does anyone have an idea?
