Are you installing as root? In that case, the compiler would create (if necessary) /opt/intel/licenses/ in order to copy the license there. You can do the same with the license file yourself, in which case the setup assistant should offer to use it.

I created that folder and placed the license file in there. No change. I have admin on this machine? My research advisor bought the compiler and then when I went to download it I used my email address. I don't think this would cause any problems. Do you

There is not enough information here. Is this Linux (what distro and version) or Mac OS X (version)?

What is your package name?: should be something like l_cprof_p_11.1.038 or m_cprof_p_11.1.046

If linux, as the user you use to install the compiler can you:

touch /opt/intel/licenses/foo
or do you get a permissions error?

If Mac OS X:
touch /Users/Shared/Library/Application Support/Intel/Licenses/foo
or do you get permissions error?
