R gui or Rstudio quits

Have you made sure that there is no hidden corrupt .Rdata  or .Rapp.history file? One way to do this is running R from a Terminal session with:

R --vanilla

I'm not a regular RStudio user, so If R is stable in that situation then your first act should be deleting those (invisible-by-default) files. It's fairly easy to find advice about how to make invisible files visible on OSX using a Google search. I'm not a regular RStudio user, so I don't know if finding such files in that environment is any more difficult. I suspect there would be such a file for every project.
