When I try to library "ggExtra" in RStudio with code below:
install.packages("ggExtra")
what displayed is:
Warning in install.packages :

Installing package into ‘C:/Users/Kyrie NI/Documents/R/win-library/3.4’

I also tried:
install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("daattali/ggExtra")
And I received the same results. What is wrong with my operation, or the package?
I had a similar problem using R 3.5.0, and found an online solution working as following. It seems I needed to set a default CRAN mirror by adding the first line. Then I update my R into version 3.5.1 to be able to library it. I hope it helps you too.
options(repos = c(CRAN = "http://cran.rstudio.com"))
install.packages("ggExtra")
The original idea comes from:

I need to install the package MXNET on a Mac OS.
I have tried
install.packages("mxnet")
and get the following error

Online solutions do not seem to work for my version of r and I keep getting the same error message as above.
I tried specifying the repository as follows with no luck
cran <- getOption("repos")
cran["dmlc"] <- "https://apache-mxnet.s3-accelerate.dualstack.amazonaws.com/R/CRAN/23"
options(repos = cran)
install.packages("mxnet")
Another option I tried is
install.packages("drat", repos="https://cran.rstudio.com")
drat:::addRepo("dmlc")
install.packages("mxnet")
require(devtools)
install_version("DiagrammeR", version = "0.8.1", repos = "http://cran.us.r-project.org")
require(mxnet)
This does not return an error when installing, but if I run something as easy as
mx.set.seed(0)
I get a message saying there is no function mx.set.seed
Does someone know if I can download a zip file for the package and import it manually into r, or if there is a simpler way of doing this?
Thank you
I tried running a pacman package and found it could not be installed. I tried installing tidyverse package individually and it says error. Now R is not able to run since all packages cannot be installed.
Lastly, uninstalled R studio and re install but it is still facing an issue.

I already tried the suggested options in this link issues in installing Rstem package and also downloading the package locally from the official website Rstem Package, but the result is also unsatisfactory.
I'm studying how to do an sentiment analysis with Twitter data. I would like to know if there is any alternative to this package or if there is any trick to install it.
RStem package has been removed from the CRAN repository. You can download using the following command:-
install.packages('Rstem', repos = "http://www.omegahat.net/R")
Make sure you have RTools installed on your machine. You can download it from this link -
Building R for Windows
RStem is now provided by OmegaHat.
Try the command below:
install.packages("Rstem", repos = "http://www.omegahat.net/R", type = "source")

How can I solve this issue?
The error messages definitely seem to be telling you, that R cannot connect to download the packages. Here are some thoughts:
Does your user profile have administrative privileges? I am not a huge Windows user, but your are technically trying to add software, which sometimes requires escalated privileges. Maybe trying running R as Admin in windows, for this one issue to see if that is the problem. (Doesn't seem very likely.)
If it is a firewall issue you could try to add an exception to your firewall settings for R and/or Cran repositories.
Have your tried to account for dependent packages? install.packages("readxl", dependencies = TRUE) (This can cause its own bag of issues as well, so consider yourself forewarned.)
Can you download any other packages? As you can access the internet to make stack posts, are asking a fairly entry level question, and the URL's are valid so there may be a configuration issue with your installation of R. If all else fails, you may wish to uninstall/reinstall R on your system (and Maybe R studio while you are at it) as that may help to repair something if it is damaged. Use the file checksums, the are there for a reason.
mxnet package is not installing in r (on windows 10) when I follow the steps given in its documentation.

Kindly help me resolve this issue. I'm using R version 3.3.0. Is there any other way of installing it in R?
I was able to install it successfully by first downloading its zip file from the following link
https://github.com/dmlc/drat/tree/gh-pages/bin/windows/contrib/3.2
and then installing it using RStudio.
I hope this answer will help anyone else facing the same problem.
I had the same issue and was able to resolve it by following the instructions on this page and choosing the correct OS, Language and CPU/GPU options:
http://mxnet.io/get_started/install.html
The only thing that worked for me was to download the mxnet.zip file to a folder, (set it as working directory) and type:
install.packages("mxnet.zip", repos=NULL, type="win.binary")
You can try using different repo in repos.
Otherwise you can download the drat package along with dependencies and install manually.
Check if these URLs are accessible from your machine or not.
Following links will be helpful for you:

The more up-to-date Installation Guide is currently located here:

I found the paragraph about the installation of the R-package on Windows to be very well written.
By the way, the install.packages("mxnet") command installs a very long tool chain, so it might happen that a package is currently not indexed correctly in the dmlc-repo (i.e. because it was just updated to a newer version on CRAN): Error: package <pkgname> is not available for R version 3.3.1 So you might want to install the "offending" package from the CRAN (or download the sourcecode and use something like install.packages(file.choose(), repos = NULL, type = "source")), then continue with another call to install.packages("mxnet").
try these commands to install mxnet package:--
cran <- getOption("repos")
cran["dmlc"] <- "https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/apache-mxnet/R/CRAN/"
options(repos = cran)
install.packages("mxnet")
