Hello Travis,

Just a quick suggestion, from the screenshot it can be seen the installer
is intended for the ARM architecture of MacOS.
Do you have an M1 Apple or an Intel Apply computer? There are different
installers for these two architectures.

Hope this helps,
Adrian

Travis,

quoting Roy?s previous message:

'I think for anyone to be able to help,  you need to provide the OS version you are running,  on which hardware  (Intel or Apple),  which link you used to download the installer,?

Then I don't know.
If you really are in a big hurry, try installing R into a virtual machine.

I don't have an ARM computer to test, but as far as I know you could also
install Rosetta to allow installers for Intel based architecture.

One of these solutions should work out until the installation problem is
resolved.
Best,
Adrian

Installation of R 4.2.2 on my M1 just succeeded.

Yes, that has been very widely tested.  We don't know what OS you or the 
OP are running, though.

Machines with M2 CPUs are very new (like 1-2 days old) and are 
presumably running 13.1 or 13.2.

I have just re-installed 4.2.2 on Macs running Ventura 13.2 with M1 Pro 
and M1 Mac CPUs.  If I had a failure my first step would be to look at 
the Console logs (the Console App is under Applications/Utilities).  And 
I would make sure my OS was up-to-date (13.2 is also new this week).

Sorry about that. I?m still on 12.6.2.

To the best of my understanding, in life nothing works just because one tries to do it multiple times ? conditions must change for success to come from failure.  Because computers especially do not change their settings based on multiple previous failed attempts to install a software, you must have changed something for the installation to work.  

We cannot say anything about this instance, but anybody with the same problem is well advised to provide a full information of what is going on, so we can help.  Also, a methodical approach in testing different things (different CRAN mirror download, different security settings, whatever) would help.
