Instant preview no longer works in OSX Yosemite

[Anders Host-Madsen]

After I upgraded to Yosemite, instant preview of math no longer works.
Is that a general issue?

Yes, seems so. At least you aren't the first one who reports this on this list.

OK, thanks. Then it might be fixed in some future update. It is not a huge issue,
so I can wait.

Sometimes I wonder if these Apple updates are worth it. So little new, but
so many things (LyX, Matlab, Mathematica, BiBTeX, VNC) don't work without a
lot of fiddling.

Starting LyX from the terminal once or twice, and each time using preview from LyX fixes the problem.

What kinds of errors are you all getting when preview fails?  I can confirm that running LyX from the terminal seems to run just fine.  I’ve run it 5 times now each time using the preview function but still when I start up LyX normally preview does not function.  I’m attaching a screen shot of the error.

I'm afraid you're talking about different things.

The math preview fails silently if enabled but non-functioning.
The document preview raises an error - your case?

I'd like to help you solving this Yosemite problems.
But I don't have enough machines to try and install all releases.
At the moment I am bound to 10.8 and 10.9.
I'll see what I can do with an external disk if I find the time.

Yes, I think we're discussing two different things. I'm talking about
instantpreview of math inside the LyX document. The view
command (cmd-R) works finefor me.

I tried to start LyX from the command line to see if that fixed
the instant previewproblem, but that does not seem to be the case.
