I mean send your email to the FreeSurfer list as well so that others can answer (which I'll do on this email).

Are you sure you don't have a typo in your command line? You typed "normlalized" instead of "normalized"

              Hi Fatma

              don't use the -1 flag if you are regtering to a template, only if you are registering individual
        surfaces to each
              other. You probably want the output to be named lh.sphere_reg and go in the  s000/surf dir.

              cheers
