NVIDIA Iray on MacBook Air issue.

Ravynheart Studio

I am on DAZ studio 4.9 Pro on a Mac OX 10.11.6 (processor 1.6 Ghz Intel Core i5. Memory 8GB 1600 MHz DDR3. Graphics Intel HD Graphics 6000 1536 MB) When I first started using DAZ I could see the option in the viewport and the aux viewport to see the Iray version of the scene. Those options are no longer there. Only UV View, besides the perspective, front, side, ect. My render settings is using the NVIDIA Iray engine. Under hardware the only options available to me is Photoreal Devices: CPU and interactive devices: CPU. (I am not sure if any of the information is what you need. I am extremely, extremely new to all of this.)

This may or may not be related, but when I try to do the interactive Scifi scene tutorial it will crash DAZ on the first step after opening a new project, which appears to be something regarding the render setting. 

The following is the message that comes up. Sorry to give you just a section of the file that comes up. The forum won't accept the full text. I am not sure what is relavant and what isn't.

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide!

I would recommend selecting you viewport style again, looks like a trashed settings file to me. The crash is in Qts event dispatcher saying something is very wrong.
