Can't install tensorflow in R, my machine is 64 bit but R doesn't detect it

I'm using windows, my problem is that while trying to install tensorflow in R the following error message appears.
Error in install_tensorflow(method = method, conda = conda, version = tensorflow, :
Unable to install TensorFlow on this platform.Binary installation is only available for 64-bit platforms.
My machine is 64 bit, so I don't understand where is the problem.
I've already cheked if my anaconda installation and the python version are 64bit and they are.
I can install tensorflow in python without any error, but i can't in R.
I've tried to redirect the R tensorflow installation to the python environment but i don't know if it can really help.
> library(tensorflow)
> install_tensorflow()
Error in install_tensorflow() :
Unable to install TensorFlow on this platform.Binary installation is only available for 64-bit platforms.
Can you try to install older version of tensorflow which is 1.5.0 using command pip install tensorflow==1.5.0

Installation R and the library "dtw" on Linux Mint

Is it possible to use Rstudio and the library "dtw" on Linux Mint?
I have an error message: dependencies 'proxy' missing, which seems to need R>3.3 but it isn't disponible from the package manager (I'm on 3.2).
Thanks
You'll need to update R. You say you're on Mint so go here https://cran.r-project.org and choose download R for Linux then choose either Ubuntu or Debian depending on the version of mint you're running and follow the instructions on that page.

R - XLConnectJars install fails because rJava is not installed correctly

I am trying to install XLConnectJars to R and I keep getting the following error despite having Java DK and rJava installed?
Error: Package as namespace load failed for 'XLConnectJars'
.onLoad failed om LoadNamespace() for 'rJava', details:
call: library.dynam("rJava",pkgname,libname)
error: DLL 'rJava' not found: maybe not installed for this architecture?
Any help greatly appreciated!
XLConnectJars is a support package used by XLConnect, a platform-independent interface to Microsoft Excel. In order for XLConnectJars to install correctly, one must also install the rJava package.
The error noted in the OP indicates that rJava did not install correctly.
error: DLL 'rJava' not found: maybe not installed for this architecture?
Many people encounter problems installing rJava because it cannot access the Java Runtime from the operating system. Solutions to the "unable to access Java runtime" problem vary by operating system.
Windows
People often have 32-bit Java installed and then use 64-bit R. The 64-bit version of R requires the 64-bit version of Java.
Solution: Install the 64-bit version of the Java Runtime for Windows from the Java Download web page.
MacOS
Details to configure rJava on MacOS are covered in another SO answer I posted, Unable to load rJava in RStudio, which I am reposting here for convenience.
There is a very specific sequence of steps that must be taken to get rJava to work on a Macbook, as documented in rJava Issues #86.
Download and install Java from Oracle
Uninstall any previously installed version of rJava
Add JAVA_HOME to your .bashrc
Close & restart terminal, R and RStudio sessions so they pick up the updated JAVA_HOME
Use install.packages() to install rJava
See the URL link above for additional details on each step.
Ubuntu Linux
Use the Advanced Packaging Tool to install Java, then reconfigure Java support in R.
sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk # openjdk-9-jdk has some installation issues
sudo R CMD javareconf
Once these steps are completed, install the XLConnectJars package with install.packages("XLConnectJars").

write.xlsx function not working

I am trying to use .xlsx library but function write.xlsx is returning error that such can not be found.
When I am installing library(xlsx) in log I can read:
Error : .onLoad nie powiodło się w funkcji 'loadNamespace()' dla pakietu 'rJava', szczegóły:
wywołanie: fun(libname, pkgname)
błąd: No CurrentVersion entry in Software/JavaSoft registry! Try re-installing Java and make sure R and Java have matching architectures.
In addition: Warning messages:
1: pakiet ‘xlsx’ został zbudowany w wersji R 3.3.2
2: pakiet ‘rJava’ został zbudowany w wersji R 3.3.3
Error: pakiet ‘rJava’ nie mógł zostać załadowany
Java is up to date.
The code in the original post fails because the xlsx package uses the Apache POI Java API to Excel, and therefore requires the rJava package. In turn, the rJava package requires a working, compatible version the Java Runtime Environment to be installed on the machine and accessible from R.
One can tell whether Java is accessible from R / RStudio via the system() function.
> system("java -version")
java version "13.0.2" 2020-01-14
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 13.0.2+8)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 13.0.2+8, mixed mode, sharing)
>
There are at least four sets of R packages used for working with Excel files, including:
xlsx -- requires rJava package
XLConnect -- requires rJava package
openxlsx -- does not require rJava package
readxl / writexl -- does not require rJava package
For options 3 and 4, the solution is simply to use install.packages() to install the desired package (as noted in another answer by #Linus), once you've updated R to the latest version.
install.packages("openxlsx")
library(openxlsx)
or
install.packages(c("readxl","writexl"))
library(readxl)
library(writexl)
A Working Example: Write to Excel File
library(writexl)
data <- data.frame(matrix(runif(100),nrow=10,ncol=10))
write_xlsx(data,"./data/simpleExcel.xlsx")
...and the output:
If You Must Use rJava...
Unfortunately, options 1 and 2 are considerably more complicated than "install Java." If one must use xlsx or needs the rJava package to support other R packages, installation of Java varies significantly by operating system.
Windows: one must install a version of Java whose architecture is compatible with R (i.e. 32-bit vs. 64-bit). One may consider installing both 32-bit and 64-bit versions because some Windows programs installed on the computer may require 32-bit Java vs. 64-bit. With RStudio, one can configure R to use the 32-bit version of R if only 32-bit Java is installed on the machine.
Mac OS X: one must install Java and run a series of commands that are documented on the rJava Issues GitHub page, including executing an R script to reconfigure Java for R.
Linux: one needs to install Java using the package installer tool appropriate for the version of Linux, and then configure R to use it. For example, in Ubuntu one would install with the advanced packaging tool.
sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk # openjdk-9-jdk has some installation issues
sudo R CMD javareconf
xlsx needs Java. Please install the current Java version from https://www.java.com/de/
and watch out, that both R and java are either 32bit or 64bit as it is stated in the error message
... and make sure R and Java have matching architectures.
Or use writexls or openxlsx. They are not depending on Java (Thanks #Len)

Install rPython under windows

I tried to install rPython under windows with install.packages("rPython"). However I am getting an error that the package does not exist.
Warning in install.packages :
package ‘rPython’ is not available (for R version 3.2.5)
In the installation doc of the package I can only find this:
WINDOWS SYSTEMS
===============
On a Windows system, the package can only be installed from source at this time. Details to come.
Is there a work-around to work with Python in R?
Try 'rPython-win' if you use windows.
rPython works in Linux.
