Please try the following:

1)  Open a new terminal window and run the bash shell as,

$ arch -arm64 /bin/bash

2) set FS_LICENSE to point to your license.txt file.  Say it is in your home directory, e.g., $HOME/license.txt.  It can be anywhere but you just have to set FS_LICENSE to its absolute path and test it can be read.

$ ls $HOME/license.txt
/Users/<your userid>/license.txt
$ export FS_LICENSE=$HOME/license.txt
$ head -1 $FS_LICENSE
you@youremail.something     <— email you used to register with

3) setup the environment

$ export FREESURFER_HOME=/Applications/freesurfer/7.3.2
$ source $FREESURFER_HOME/SetUpFreeSurfer.sh

4) Try running freeview w/o any arguments to see if it opens an empty window.

$ freeview

5)  If that worked,  quit freeview and then try running freeview to open one of the provided volumes in the 7.3.2 release,

$ freeview $SUBJECTS_DIR/bert/mri/brain.mgz

5) If that worked, then try running freeview on your file again.
