We didn't release a binary for Mac OS yet, so there are many  
possibilities of what could have went wrong - please describe how you  
build your R.

Umm.. how can you double-click R? R is supposed to be run in Terminal  
or other shell-like environment.

R.app has not been released for R 2.1 yet, so I'm wondering what you  
are trying there. Did you build R.app from the current sources? Note  
that the nightly build uses R 2.0 and is therefore not compatible  
with R 2.1. We will switch to 2.1 only after the official release of  
binaries for Mac OS X.
