Rather than further troubleshoot my issues with LyX on Snow Leopard, I decided to wait until I could start fresh with Lion. After some hardware repairs, I wiped the hard drive on my MacBook Pro and installed Lion 10.7.4, MaxTeX-2012 (which I immediately updated with the TeX Live Utility),

Thanks. As convert is now working, I'll put off installing software I probably don't actually need. I am able to convert the problematic files (such as mobius.eps) to pngs at the command line using convert manually. The problem appears to be that my installation of LyX is not using convert. As
