Hi, I see you've gotten all kinds of R-specific suggestions and feedback, but I wonder if this might be a more fundamental problem related to the "This file cannot be found" bug that is persisting in Mac OS
cf https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/updated-to-13-1-and-now-file-cant-be-found.2373951/ I haven't encountered this problem with applications, but certainly it has been a pesky problem with files. Usually trying again resolves it for files.
