I have the following message : Failed to create license folder when I install.

I can not proceed to install ifort in my MAC.

The installer attempts to put the license in /Users/Shared/Library/Application Support/Intel/Licenses

Check the permissions on /Users/Shared/Library/Application Support in a terminal window:

ls -ld /Users/Shared/Library/Application Support/
drwxr-xr-x 4 rwgreen wheel 136 Aug 3 11:44 /Users/Shared/Library/Application Support/

Make sure the ownership and permissions permit you to write to this directory. If not, as root or admin user on a terminal window:

chown /Users/Shared/Library/Application Support/
chmod 755 /Users/Shared/Library/Application Support/

and then retry the installation.
