External Email - Use Caution
You don’t have permission to write to the default location of SUBJECTS_DIR as set in the freesurfer shell environment, i.e., /Applications/freesurfer/7.4.1/subjects. The example subject data there is on purpose meant to be read only along with the rest of the freesurfer installation. When it comes time to process your own subject data and write new or modify existing files, then you should set SUBJECTS_DIR to a path you always have write permission to, e.g., in your home directory, $ mkdir -p $HOME/subjects$ export SUBJECTS_DIR=$HOME/subjects… place your data under $HOME/subjects and run your freesurfer/freeview commands ....

Permssion denied: I have grant full disc access to Freesurfer and the terminal, but still….2. Error cannot find: My Understanding is, that -s specifies the desired name of the output file, i. e. It will be created?3. Version check failed: No idea. B) Using the GUI, Freesurfer simply crashes. The crash log report is rather long as usual, but I can easily provide it if necessary. The Nifti file was created from DICOM images using Micron.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
