Jule,

> How can i convert any file made by lilypond (.ly .ps or .dvi) to a .pdf file?

unfortunately it isn't documented in the man page, but lilypond can generate 
tex files that are suitable for pdflatex. Usage is
 lilypond -f pdftex input.ly
Make sure that you have the type1 fonts installed to get a nice pdf file
from pdflatex.

You need to install special software to view pdf files, e.g. Acroread or
GSView/ghostscript. So, what do you mean?
