You have given insufficient information for useful help. R installs (from the Mac binary) without difficulty on my Mac. Have your student post with sufficient details to the r-sig-mac list. -- Bert Bert Gunter "The trouble with having an open mind is that people keep coming along and sticking things into it." -- Opus (aka Berkeley Breathed in his "Bloom County" comic strip ) On Wed, Sep 12, 2018 at 9:10 AM AbouEl-Makarim Aboueissa <abouelmakarim1962 at gmail.com> wrote:> > Dear All: > > One of my students has mac software OS X Yosemite, Version 10.10.5.

Also read the CRAN download web page which says 10.10.5 is too old for current supported versions of R. Could try an archived version or, better yet, upgrade the OS.
