[Dr Eberhard W Lisse]

Heba,

I am not sure I understand what you are trying to say.

Fire up LyX and do a Tools -> Reconfigure. Restart LyX and open
or create a document. Then hit Command-R or click on the icon with
the two eyes.

MacTeX is not itself an application. It is a package that installs the TeX 
binaries and configuration files, none of which will show up in your 
Applications directory. (They are mostly in /Library/TeX.) LyX should know 
where they are and call them (with no input from you) when you try to view or 
export a document. Try creating and viewing a simple document in LyX.

Thanks Dr I downloaded and installed the MacTex basic but it does not
appear in the applications so cant opens it. It just the yellow box on
desktop. I think that is why all the classes in the document are
unavailable.
