Is it possible to make LaTeXit reference internal equations properly?

Question

Minimum example in LaTeXit text mode

\begin{equation} \label{1} 
x^2 
\end{equation} 
\eqref{1}

Explain how to get \eqref{1} to typeset as (1) rather than (??) and you've solved my problem

I tend to misuse LaTeXit to typeset page-long documents on my mac, the code of which are collected into large proper documents down the line. I would like equation references within these page long previews to appear properly, not appear as "(??)". I figure all you need to do is somehow get LateXit to rerun LateX in the same directory in which it creates the aux file, but with all the Linux based directory shifting LaTeXit does, I lack the nous to make the necessary incision into the code. Interpage references are more rare, so I can live without those, but intrapage references are too common to leave as improperly formatted. Can anyone help me out? Cheers:)
