IBM SPSS v23 Installation and Registration The following set of instructions will walk you through installing IBM SPSS on your computer.

SPSS version 23 is compatible on the following Mac Operating Systems:

• OS X Mountain Lion 10.8 • OS X Mavericks 10.9 • OS X Yosemite 10.10 • OS X El Capitan 10.11 o El Capitan is only supported with several pre-requisites: . Install the El Capitan Fix Pack . Install legacy Apple Java 6 to prevent from possible problems with the Commuter Utility . For the Commuter Utility short-cut please refer to APAR PI49312 (step 3 on this page)

Java JRE (6 or 7) must already be installed before you can run the SPSS 23 Mac silent installer.

We suggest that you first obtain the SPSS license code before you begin downloading SPSS. Obtain the SPSS license code from this link: http://ezp.waldenulibrary.org/limited/spsslicense.html You will need to enter your Walden user name and password if you are not already logged into the Library or Blackboard.

Simply copy and paste the code into a Word document so that you have it available when prompted to enter it at the end of the installation sequence. You can always enter the code later; however, having it on hand to enter during the installation is much easier.

SPSS software installation link for the MAC is given below.

This installation requires at least 1GB of free space on your computer. Because of the large size of the installation file, it is recommended that you are on a DSL or better internet connection. Even with a strong internet connection, the installation may still take up to 30 minutes or longer. While the tool is installing, you may continue to work within other applications on your computer.
