It *is* installed with MacTeX. If you can, you might want to wait a week or so (it should be out "real soon now") to download MacTeX based on texlive 2008; installing that will give you a new installation of ImageMagick. Alternatively, you could use MacTeX 2007 to do it again. But these are big downloads, and I'm not even sure if this will solve the problem. > Now, since I am a totally beginner in the Lyx and Latex arena (I have been > using, LyX for 3 weeks), I am not sure about what are the right ways for > uninstalling/installing LaTeX packages and additional software. > Perhaps I could do the two operations through the i-Installer?

Another option would be to use macports or fink to install it for you. Bennett
