My preamble looks like

\documentclass[11pt]{article}

\include{abbreviations}
\include{paper}

\begin{document}...

and the files paper.tex and abbreviations.tex are located in ~/Library/ 
texmf/tex/latex. When runing "Typeset & View", I get the following  
warning

Warning: Could not open abbreviations.tex to check for packages

Warning: Could not open paper.tex to check for packages

although the document compiles without errors. In the same document,  
if I hit Alt+ESC inside \ref{}, I get the message "Could not locate  
any file named 'abbreviation'" as a tooltip.

no, I only have MacTex installed and "which pdflatex" yields "/usr/ 
texbin/pdflatex" (in the terminal).
