R refuses to run
Sorry for the huge delay, but I was relying on my office copy of S-Plus since I needed to get things done! Ok, the problem was apparently due to the .RData file; I worked through Step 1 and 2 below, and everything was fine. Thanks to everyone for their help. cheers, Jessi

Step 1 - check whether R runs at all. Start Terminal and type R (just R, no app). Does this work? Step 2 - remove workspace that may cause trouble If you don't mind deleting your current workspace from your home, please do so - i.e. type the following in Terminal: rm -f .RData ~/.RData Step 3 - run the R.app Double-clock on the R icon in Applications. If it comes up and disappears again, please go to Applications -> Utilities and start "Console" Depending on your settings you may already see the error message in the log. Otherwise look at the other log files in the left menu. If there is no list of logs on the left hand side, click on the "Logs" icon in the toolbar. The crash logs are usually in ~/Library/Logs -> CrashReporter and then R.app Please let us know whether you were able to fix the problem or supply us with any errors you find in the logs.
