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"

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 path 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?
(You can always create that folder! -- Your LaTeX installation will
recognize it once you do.)
Did you check to see if you have read permissions to aip.bst? Are you
sure your copy of that file is not corrupted?
