You need to set the environment variable DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH to the directory that contains libvtkCommonPythonD.dylib.  Try entering this into your Terminal before launching ipython:


$  export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Applications/Paraview/Contents/Libraries


$ ipython

Looks like your python paths aren't set up correctly.  I would do:
- Run pvpython and do "import sys; print sys.path". You should see a bunch of paths related to ParaView python.


- In ipython, append these paths to your sys.path.  I think ipython also has a start up script, something like ipy_user_conf.py. If you do the importing there, you can save your self from having to retype this every time
