R studio downloaded from: Download the RStudio IDE - RStudio (MacOS 10. R version 4.1.1 downloaded from: R for macOS (I chose the first option since I don't have Big Sur) Since my Mac is 10.9.5, which had been upgraded from Snow Leopard, the 'RSudio' should work but it didn't.
I've tried uninstalling and re-installing, restarting my computer, checking 'which R' in Terminal as I saw suggested on an earlier thread, but nothing is working. As per 'RStudio', which I intend to use for taking an online R class, I installed RStudio ()-Mac OS X 10.6+. This is where my problem started - when I tried to launch R studio, the icon just bounced for a couple of minutes and then the app froze and would not open. Then, my R studio gave me a message that 'R graphics engine version 14 is not supported by this version of RStudio.' Even though when I checked for updates, it said that there weren't any, I decided to uninstall and re-install the most recent version of R studio. I've been using R studio daily, but I needed to update my R version to load some packages in old code I was re-running, so I did that successfully.
I am in need of some help because I am not able to get a new installation of R studio to open on my computer.
