Hi Charmaine, Sounds like you just need to change the folder permissions for,
/Applications/freesurfer/
before attempting to copy the .license file to that location. -Louis

Hi,
I am trying to install freesurfer on my mac, and I got a license key, which I need to save as ".license" file. However, the mac is not allowing me to do so.
I tried saving the file in linux and importing to the mac but this failed too.
I also tried saving it as freesurfer.license instead of just .license but I get the error:
[Charmaines-MacBook-Pro:/Applications/freesurfer] Charm% tkmedit bert orig.mgz
Couldn't create output file .xdebug_tkmedit--------------------------------------------------------------------------
ERROR: FreeSurfer license file /Applications/freesurfer/.license not found.
Any ideas?
Thanks very much,
Best,
Charmaine
