Dear David, Sorry to chime in late -- I didn't read the messages in this thread until just now.

If one loads the Rcmdr package at the beginning of a session via library(Rcmdr), then the dependencies that it needs to start up, such as RcmdrMisc, will be loaded automatically. Other packages may be loaded during an Rcmdr session as needed. By far the most common problem with getting the Rcmdr to work on Macs is failure to install XQuartz or failure to reinstall it after updating the OS. I see from a subsequent message that varin sasha's problem has been solved. Thanks for trying to help.
