Installing
Important: To install, you must be logged on to your computer with administrator privileges.

Installing from a downloaded file


You must run the installer as administrator:
1. Double-click the file that you downloaded and extract all the files to some location on your computer.
2. Using Windows Explorer, browse to the location where you extracted the files.
3. Right-click setup.exe and choose Run as Administrator.
4. Follow the instructions that appear on the screen.

Installing from the DVD/CD

DVD/CD drive.
2. Using Windows Explorer, browse to the DVD/CD drive.

Notes for installation


This section contains special instructions for this installation.
License type. Be sure to select concurrent license.
License manager server name or IP address. This is the IP address or the name of the server on which
the network license manager is running. If you have multiple addresses or names, separate them with a
tilde (for example, server1~server2~server3). Contact your administrator if you do not have this
information.

Checking out/in a commuter license


Network licenses normally require that you are connected to the network to run IBM SPSS Amos. If your
administrator enabled commuter licenses, you can check out a commuter license to use the network
license when you are not connected to the network. For example, you may want to run IBM SPSS Amos on
the train when you don't have a network connection. Before disconnecting from your network and
catching the train, you could check out a commuter license for a limited amount of time. You will need to
reconnect to the network and check the license back in before the time expires. Otherwise, IBM SPSS
Amos will stop working.
Network licenses are enabled and configured by your administrator. If you would like to use this feature
and can't, check with your administrator.
Important: Even if you are able to run IBM SPSS Amos because you are reconnected to the network, be
sure to check the license back in. Doing so will allow other users to take advantage of the commuter
license.

Check out a license


1. Choose Commuter License in the Windows Start menu program group for IBM SPSS Amos.
2. Select the license that you want to check out.
3. In the Duration box, enter the number of days for which you want to check out the license. There is a
limit that your administrator configures.
4. Click Check Out.
The commuter license will expire after the number of days specified by Duration. You can also manually
check the license back in at any time.
You may receive a message in the following format:
