I'm trying to use plot.ci function in the zelig library but apparently Zelig is not supported with R 4.0.2. I'm trying to see if there is a work around to access these functions or if I just can't use this library until they make the appropriate updates. Please help.

WARNING: Rtools is required to build R packages but is not currently installed. Please download and install the appropriate version of Rtools before proceeding:

Installing package into ‘C:/Users/ethan/Documents/R/win-library/4.0’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning in install.packages :
package ‘zeligverse’ is not available (for R version 4.0.2)
It looks like this package has been removed from CRAN's repository, meaning you can't install it like this anymore - you have to install it manually. This is explained on their website, and has download links for manual installation that have been archived:
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/zeligverse/index.html
You will also have to install the following dependencies (packages it requires) to install it correctly:
'Amelia', 'MatchIt', 'WhatIf', 'Zelig', 'ZeligChoice', 'ZeligEI'
The Zelig package that is currently available appears to support the function you mentioned. You can install it with:
install.packages("Zelig")

I'm not able to install the IntroCompFinR package in RStudio due to this error:
> install.packages("IntroCompFinR")
Installing package into ‘C:/Users/HP/Documents/R/win-library/3.6’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning in install.packages :
package ‘IntroCompFinR’ is not available (for R version 3.6.1)
Try the R-Forge repo?
install.packages("IntroCompFinR", repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org")
You may also have to install quadprog from another repo first.
install.packages("quadprog", repos="http://cran.rstudio.com")
install.packages("IntroCompFinR", repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org")
install.packages("package_name") from devtools library works only when the package is enlisted in CRAN, and complies with your R version.
Three alternatives if it is available, but either not in CRAN or not compatible with your R version:
Install via Github: If your package is incorporated in a Github repository (most packages are), then you can use
install_github("github_UsernameOfAuthor/repository_name")
Other prominent repository holders include bitbucket and gitorious, for which
install_bitbucket("package_Author/repository_name")
and
install_gitorious("package_Author/repository_name")
apply respectively.
Install via R-Forge: If your repository is uploaded to R-Forge, you can use
install.packages("package_name", repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org")
This is applicable in your case since there is an R-Forge repository for the IntroCompFinR library, with the install command being mentioned here as well.
Install via some other source URL/website: If your package has a repository somewhere on the internet, you can use the source-link to install the package via
install.packages("package_name", repos="URL")`.
Note: All of these commands are provided by devtools, which you seem to have, but just in case you don't, you can use these commands to install both devtools and your required package:
# Install directly from CRAN:
if(!require(devtools))install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install.packages("package_name")
# Install via Github:
if(!require(devtools))install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("githubAuthor_username/package_name")
# Install via R-Forge or any other repository holding website:
if(!require(devtools))install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install.packages("package_name",repos="website-link")
Most package authors give installation commands in their package vignette or via their Github repository for the same, but you can acquire the package directly provided you know its name and link to the source repository.
You can use this post as a reference when installing R packages in the future.
Trying to install tm package in R but I get the following error.
Installing package into ‘C:/Users/resmim/Documents/R/win-library/3.2’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) also installing the dependency ‘slam’
Packages which are only available in source form, and may need compilation of C/C++/Fortran: ‘slam’ ‘tm’ These will not be installed
Type this in your console:
chooseCRANmirror()
And choose your CRAN Mirror. I like Spain :). Then try re-installing your package.
In addition to trying your luck with a few different mirrors, be sure to answer 'N' when asked 'Do you want to install from sources the package which needs compilation?' This solved the problem for me.
update r version to latest, it just worked for me.
to do this, download latest version of R from cran and install it. no uninstall required for previous versions.
I am currently trying install a package from Bioconductor, I got the following message
BioC_mirror: http://bioconductor.org
Using Bioconductor version 2.14 (BiocInstaller 1.14.2), R version 3.1.0.
Installing package(s) 'minet'
package 'minet' is available as a source package but not as a binary
Warning message:
package 'minet' is not available (for R version 3.1.0)
The package is called "minet", avaliable at http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/minet.html
As #MartinMorgan points out, the package fails to build on Mavericks, and won't be available until the maintainer fixes it.
I have contacted the maintainer with a fix, so it should be resolved soon.
You can download the source code (probably tar.gz) and install it through your RStudio. This is a tutorial of what you could do:

It's so simple, but I didn't get the answer so easily.
I am using R version 3.0.3.
I would like to install the package "imputation". I would like to re-run an analysis I used last year in R version 3.0.2.
I also have a new computer so I am re-installing my packages. I would like to install the package "imputation".
install.packages("imputation")
However, I received the following error:
Installing package into ‘\\oxdc/userdata/jolyon.faria/Documents/R/win-library/3.0’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning in install.packages :
package ‘imputation’ is not available (for R version 3.0.3)
How can I work around this problem? I thought I could perhaps run two versions of R on the same computer but this may throw up its own problems.
Always check CRAN for package problems:
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/imputation/
You might be able to get it working on 3.0.3 or later by installing from source via the source archive.
Or contact the maintainer and ask them if they can fix the problem that caused the removal from CRAN.
I am getting the following error when trying to install ggplot2:

Installing package(s) into ‘/home/dodo/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.13’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
--- Please select a CRAN mirror for use in this session ---
Loading Tcl/Tk interface ... done
Warning message:
In getDependencies(pkgs, dependencies, available, lib) :
package ‘ggplot2’ is not available (for R version 2.13.1)
I am running Ubuntu 11.10 (oneiric).
Any help is appreciated.
You need R (>= 2.14.0) for this version.
So please go and see the instructions at CRAN to upgrade on Ubuntu to the current R and once you have R 2.14.2 up and running (which is a matter of four or five commands, thanks to the magic of apt-get and friends, upgrade to the current ggplot2.
ggplot2-0.9.0 has an explicit dependency on R >= 2.14 (and an implicit one of R >= 2.14.1). Thus it can not be installed in R version 2.13.1. Perhaps you can get the previous version (0.8.9) from the archives and install that.
You need to install a version that is appropriate to your old version of R or you need to upgrade. To go the first route, you should find a version of ggplot2 in the Archives and then install from source (which is I believe the default for Linux). Perhaps try the UCLA CRAN mirror:
http://cran.stat.ucla.edu/src/contrib/Archive/ggplot2/ggplot2_0.8.9.tar.gz
