Hi Hamada,

Bioconductor has two branches - release and development. ExperimentHub 
has been added  to the devel branch of Bioconductor recently -and it 
will thus work only with the devel version of R until it is added to the 
release branch ( April 15th, 2016)
The release schedule can be found here:
http://www.bioconductor.org/developers/release-schedule/

You have two options right now , if you don't want to change your 
current R version -

a) ExperimentHub will be available in release version of Bioconductor 
after the upcoming release ( April 15th, 2016 ).
You can wait till April 15th - and retry then.

library(ExperimentHub)
eh = ExperimentHub()
query(eh , "GSE62944")
tcga_data <- eh[["EH1"]]

b) AnnotationHub was the original place where the raw TCGA data was 
added ! and you can thus access GSE62944 from there using the same code.

library(AnnotationHub)
ah = AnnotationHub()
query(ah , "GSE62944")
tcga_data = ah[["AH28855"]]
## follow rest of the Experiment Hub vignette.


I use R-devel -  here is my sessionInfo() for option(a)

other can also benefit from your questions.

Thanks and Regards,
