This indicates it's not a LyX problem but something wrong with your
LaTeX setup. I'm not sure what the "couldn't open style file aip.bst"
is indicating. You said you installed it; are you sure? Try opening
the Terminal and typing:

kpsewhich aip.bst

That should return a path to the file if LaTeX can find the file and
nothing otherwise. If you do get a bath to that file, check to make
sure you have read permissions on it. The other possibility I can
think of is that the file is somehow corrupted.

When installing extra files for LaTeX, the standard place to put them
on Mac is ~/Library/texmf/. So .bst files would generally be put in ~/
Library/texmf/bibtex/bst. Having done that, run "sudo
texhash" (giving your password), and it *should* work.

This is the path that I found the aip.bst file in
/usr/local/gwTeX/texmf.texlive/bibtex/bst/base/aip.bst
  I looked and I dont have a ~/Library/texmf/bibtex/bst folder....
Could there be somewhere else that I can put the file so LaTeX can see it?
