can i change that
Yes. There is a bug involving the interaction between LyX and the
Finder. Two things you can do here; if the first thing doesn't work
on its own, try the second as well.
1. From within the Finder, select any .pdf file. Do File > Get
Info... and change the "Open with:" drop-down list to something other
than Preview, and then select Preview again. Then click on the
"Change all..." button (confirming that you want to do this from the
dialog that pops up). Now when you view your .lyx document as PDF, it
should open in Preview. If this doesn't work, also do the following:
2. Within LyX, select LyX > Preferences > File Formats > PDF. In the
Viewer field, enter "open" (without the quotes), click on the
"Modify" button and then on the "Save" button. Now this should fix
your LyX problem.
