I was under the same impression when I first installed and started to use R for Mac. However, the system believes that R it's hung, but in reality it's not. You just have to be patient. Sometimes installation requires download of several tens of Mb of source/binary packages. Try with a tiny one from the command line, using biocLite(), for example. You should see R back to response soon. Massimo
