Is this an older machine?  I used to have similar trouble on my old OS
X laptop (part of why I got a new laptop actually); the graphics would
_eventually_ display, but it might take a very, very long time.  I am
not sure what the bottleneck is, and maybe you are having a different
problem.  If it is just very slow, perhaps you could try: restarting
firefox and freeing as many resources as possible (i.e. shut down
other large programs), and then trying a simple 3d plot like
show(sphere()).
