[R] how update to latest version of R on mac

[Jane Synnergren]

Thanks Tom!
One more quick question, regarding choosing mavericks.pkg or snowleopard.pkg.
Will mavericks work for me though I have OS X Lion 10.7.5? I thought I had to choose snowleopard but are still an unexperienced mac user and have really no idea.

Just want to dubble check before I run the installation.

Jane,

It's possible, since you are using Mac OS X Lion (10.7.5), you need the R version for that, which can be found here: http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/old/R-3.1.1-mavericks.pkg

Cheers!
Tom

Hi,
I get following error when trying to update the affy package to latest
version.

Error: cannot remove prior installation of package Œaffy¹

I think it is because affy requires R 3.1.1 and I have 3.0.2

I try to find a guide how I do to upgrade from 3.0.2 to latest version on
mac, but cannot find any good description. Can anyone guide me?

Do I just download R for mac (R-3.1.2-snowleopard.pkg) from
<http://ftp.sunet.se/pub/lang/CRAN/bin/macosx/R-3.1.2-snowleopard.pkg> and
dubbelclick?

What will happen with all installed packages?
I have OS X Lion 10.7.5
Which version number is stable and reliable?

I also need a guide of how to update to latest version of  bioconductor on
mac.

Descriptions for windows is available everywhere.

/Jane
