Tidyverse package not installing

Hi, new R user here. I've read many threads on this site about troubles installing tidyverse, but after trying a few solutions, still no luck. I'm running Mac 10.14 and R 3.6.1.

I'm sure there's a simple solution here, just not seeing it.
Thanks!

Hi, and welcome!

Anaconda is a great package manager for Python. For R installs, not so great. Download the pkg installer from CRAN to get clean R install, and then you will be able to install tidyverse in the R console or with RStudio console with with just

install.packages("tidyverse")

Thank you! Had to reinstall RStudio itself as well as clearing R out of Anaconda to get this to work, but work it did!
