[BioC] flowQ loading error after installing ImageMagick

The convert command isn't in my PATH but adding the newIt doesn't seem to be working. I don't have a .bashrc file but I have a .bash_profile. The original file was:
# Setting PATH for EPD-7.1-2
# The orginal version is saved in .bash_profile.pysave
PATH="/Library/Frameworks/EPD64.framework/Versions/Current/bin:${PATH}"
export PATH

MKL_NUM_THREADS=1
export MKL_NUM_THREADS

# Setting PATH for Python 2.7
# The orginal version is saved in .bash_profile.pysave
PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin:${PATH}"
export PATH

##
# Your previous /Users/chanj/.bash_profile file was backed up as /Users/chanj/.bash_profile.macports-saved_2013-03-04_at_14:30:35
##

# MacPorts Installer addition on 2013-03-04_at_14:30:35: adding an appropriate PATH variable for use with MacPorts.
export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH
# Finished adapting your PATH environment variable for use with MacPorts.

I added PATH=$PATH:/opt/local/bin after the export line, resaved the text edit file and quit the terminal. When I checked Terminal again the file was updated but R couldn't find the command still.

I also tried adding it before the export line, replacing the part after the export line with it, adding quotation marks but nothing seemed to work.  I went in and found the convert command file and it is in opt/local/bin. I tried Sys.which with another file that was in the same location and R output "/usr/bin/clear" .  Could it be related to the backup file that was created before I changed it?

Thanks
