1 day ago Judging from the screenshot, it looks like the problem is that there's some crosstalk between R 4.4 and R 4.3 on your machine. The vctrs.so file in the R 4.4 package library is linking to R 4.3's libr.dylib file, which is wrong.
Could you provide a little more info?
.libPaths() return for you in Positron and in RStudio?

1 day ago Thanks for the reply! One thing I forgot to mention is that I can load certain packages (e.g. terra).
"/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/4.4-arm64/Resources/library".

1 day ago Can you say more about how/why you say you have installed R 4.2, 4.3, and 4.4 all on your machine? Do you mean all at the same time, or first you installed R 4.2, then later replaced it with R 4.3, etc? It is not typically possible or recommended to install and use multiple regular R installations from CRAN, especially on macOS.
(If you are interested in managing multiple R versions on the same machine, we recommend rig.)

I just updated R and the old versions weren't deleted. I'm just using the latest one.

41 minutes ago Something feels confused/dysfunctional around your R installation. For example, did you upgrade R but then somehow keep using the previous package library? Whenever you go from one minor version to the next, such as 4.3 to 4.4, you need to reinstall all add-on packages.
To reiterate:
What does .libPaths() return for you in Positron and in RStudio?
I'll also add: what does sessionInfo() show?
We are interested in seeing the exact output of these functions. E.g. for me it's:

Interpreter details:
R 4.4.1
Describe the issue:
So far I mainly used R via RStudio. Trying to use it via Positron leads to issues when trying to load packages. See the corresponding output below.
Steps to reproduce the issue:
Expected or desired behavior:
Package to be loaded successfully. If possible I'd like to directly use the packages I installed via RStudio (which uses the same R version).
Were there any error messages in the UI, Output panel, or Developer Tools console?
