Hmm, I don't have this problem.  Though I have 10.7 and I don't remember 
how my `convert` was installed, but anyway

$ which convert
/usr/local/bin/convert

Is it possible that convert isn't installed correctly?  In the code for 
animate?? I see you might want to try

from sage.misc.sage_ostools import have_program 

have_convert = have_program('convert') 

and see whether Sage is finding it.  

You could also install ffmpeg, though I agree that you don't want to have 
to do that.  Let us know what happens - maybe some other people on 10.9 can 
try to replicate this.
