Metric Files for Times New Roman missing

Hmm... when I go to "Document Settings Fonts" and change Roman from "Default" to "Times Roman" and try to preview (or PDF my file) I get some error like this.
! Font \csname\endcsname=psyr at 10.0pt not loadable: Metric (TFM) file not found.
This only happens if I have some symbols like "AMS ...

Re: How to make the first page almost blank with some text

Thank you very much - that saved me some precious time. I still had some unexpected behavior from Lyx but mostly I got what I wanted.

How to make the first page almost blank with some text

I would try to find this thing in the manual, but I'm already almost 24 h past my deadline. So basically all I'm capable of right now is franticly hitting every button. So I'll try this forum:

Manually added Package not listed in Package Manager

I just started using MiKTeX and LyX. In MikTeX I have the following problem.

I have to install a *.sty file manually. So I followed the manual and created a directory:
C:\Local TeX Files\tex\latex\misc
Then copied the *.sty file here in the misc-folder. Then I opened Start>MikTeX 2.9 >Maintenance ...

Unable to use a package in Lyx that was installed in Miktex

As the previous question was answered so quickly I'll try another newbie problem.
Previously I was told that by using the command

How to use a package/style in LyX installed in Miktex

I just installed LyX and have no prior experience using LaTeX. I have the following problem:
I used MiKTeX to install a package. (Or style or whatever it is: bussproofs.sty . You can make natural deduction trees etc. using it.)
After this I also used the "reconfigure" button in Tools in LyX. And ...
