Install it :-)

Grab it here:
http://ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/prettyref

or try to get it via your package manager (probably the MikTeX package manager).

BTW the problem with prettyref, which is used by LyX for formatted cross 
references, was that it had an unclear license, so many TeX distributions 
excluded it. Recently, the license issue was sorted out, so the package will 
most likely be reincluded in the distros.

I wrote this lyx file on my mac and it worked fine. then my mac exploded and
now im trying to work with it on my windows box. but the latex compiler
says: "prettyref.sty noot found".
why does it say that? what can i do about it?

cheers,
