Thank you! I did that, and it now appropriately handles the 'scratch' file that I created. It gives me a different error when I try to get output, too: a dialog box comes up with the heading "LyX: latex Errors (document path in
parens)" and inside the box it says "Undefined control sequence."

I haven't experienced that error, so these are just suggestions:
1. Try with something known to work like the Tutorial and the User's Guide (both under the Help menu) to see that it is really a configuration problem. If they provide a pdf-file then it is probably your file that is corrupt in some way.

2. If they don't work, your installation of MacTeX and some i- Installer packages on top of each other may have caused some proble.
Open a Terminal and type
sudo texhash
followed by return.
Give your (admin) password and return.
Then open LyX, do a new reconfigure, quit LyX and open LyX again.
That should hopefuly solve it.
If not, try to uninstall the i-Installer packages and MacTeX and then reinstall MacTeX (it includes everything you need).

Good luck!
Anders
