Hi, I get following error when trying to update the affy package to latest version. Error: cannot remove prior installation of package ?affy? I think it is because affy requires R 3.1.1 and I have 3.0.2 I try to find a guide how I do to upgrade from 3.0.2 to latest version on mac, but cannot find any good description. Can anyone guide me? Do I just download R for mac (R-3.1.2-snowleopard.pkg) from <http://ftp.sunet.se/pub/lang/CRAN/bin/macosx/R-3.1.2-snowleopard.pkg> and dubbelclick? What will happen with all installed packages? I have OS X Lion 10.7.5 Which version number is stable and reliable? I also need a guide of how to update to latest version of bioconductor on mac. Descriptions for windows is available everywhere. /Jane --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Jane Synnergren, PhD Systems Biology Research Center School of Bioscience University of Sk?vde Sweden Contact: email: jane.synnergren at his.se mobile: +46 (0)708 806495 webpage: his.se/synj Postal Address: Visiting address: Box 408 Kanikegr?nd 3A 541 28 Sk?vde Sk?vde
Jane, It's possible, since you are using Mac OS X Lion (10.7.5), you need the R version for that, which can be found here: http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/old/R-3.1.1-mavericks.pkg Cheers!

You might find help more tuned to your environment by also participating on the R-sig-mac mailing list. As always start by reading the archives and posting guide, as well as using a search engine. Note that bioconductor has its own website and support forums. This list is still a good place for general questions about R (yes, read the Posting Guide). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeff Newmiller The ..... .....

Thanks Tom! One more quick question, regarding choosing mavericks.pkg or snowleopard.pkg. Will mavericks work for me though I have OS X Lion 10.7.5? I thought I had to choose snowleopard but are still an unexperienced mac user and have really no idea. Just want to dubble check before I run the installation. /Jane ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jane Synnergren, PhD Systems Biology Research Center School of Bioscience University of Sk?vde Sweden Contact: email: jane.synnergren at his.se mobile: +46 (0)708 806495 webpage: his.se/synj Postal Address: Visiting address: Box 408 Kanikegr?nd 3A 541 28 Sk?vde Sk?vde From: Thomas Adams <tea3rd at gmail.com<mailto:tea3rd at gmail.com>> Date: Sunday, December 21, 2014 2:06 AM To: Jane Synnergren <jane.synnergren at his.se<mailto:jane.synnergren at his.se>> Cc: R-help <r-help at r-project.org<mailto:r-help at r-project.org>> Subject: Re: [R] how update to latest version of R on mac Jane, It's possible, since you are using Mac OS X Lion (10.7.5), you need the R version for that, which can be found here: http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/old/R-3.1.1-mavericks.pkg Cheers!
