Please use R-sig-mac to ask questions about Mac OS X.

In particular do not use R-bugs to ask questions. There may be a bug here, but there is nothing to reproduce and it may not be in R (it may be in R.app, the GUI).

How about uninstalling R (not re-installing)? See the R-MacOS FAQ, e.g.
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/RMacOSX-FAQ.html#How-can-R-for-Mac-OS-X-be-uninstalled_003f

You might also want to remove any startup files (.RData in particular) or your preferences (in case they got trashed).

Hi,

I'm having problems opening R on MAC OSX. It was working fine, then I
tried using the fix() command on one of my data sources. R froze, so I
re-started it. R would not open, the icon kept bouncing in the dock. I
have tried reinstalling the program, but every time the installer says
it is "updating" instead of installing - I'm not sure how to
completely erase R from the system. What should I do?

Read the FAQ ....

Thanks,
Lisa
