ce,

Did you try to use the menu Packages & Data > Package Installer, select CRAN (binaries) from the top left option in the open menu, search for the forecast package and then install it with the dependencies? I did this here and it worked for me.


If it doesnt work, please run 


sessionInfo()


inside R and paste here your results.

But in crran page it says mac binaries ?
if I do install.library, it compiles the package. My old mac cant compile some packages. thats why I need to install binaries directly if possible.

As you install basically all CRAN packages and all OSes;

install.packages("forecast")
