Saving or copying graphics from Quartz returns empty file

Hi, Can anyone suggest some help for saving or copying graphs I've created in the Quartz screen? I've read the R-FAQ and tried to search for answers, but have not found anything. I'm using a Mac, Mountain Lion OS, and have version 2.15.2 of R. When I save a graphic, the process either crashes R, or if it saves a file, when I open it I get a blank file or an error message that reads "The file Rplot.pdf could not be opened." When I try to copy the graphic instead to paste into any other program (Word, Excel, etc), a blank image frame is all I get. I have also tried running graphics and either saving or exporting from RStudio and have the same issues. I assume there is some package I've not loaded or some bug fix I need to get, but I can't find any documentation about it. Any ideas?
The easiest WYSIWYG way is to use
quartz.save("foo.pdf","pdf")
which works in the R.app GUI.
Nonetheless, copy/paste works as well although it uses a different way. If we are to look into that, can you tell us exactly what OS version are you on and provide sessionInfo() to have an idea about your setup?
Cheers,
Simon
