Installation


Before proceeding: Mac OSX requires the installation of XQuartz for freesurfer to function properly.

  • OSX versions 10.6, 10.7, 10.8, and 10.9 require XQuartz 2.7.5 (or earlier).

  • OSX versions 10.10 and later requires XQuartz 2.7.6 (or higher).


Check Application -> Utilities to see if XQuartz is already installed. If not use the links above to download the proper version and install. You may need to logout and log back in after XQuartz is installed.

Download the freesurfer dmg installation package and double click on it to expand the package: install-5mpkg.png

After the package integrity has been verified, the introductory screen will appear. Click on Continue: install-5intro.jpg

Next is the Read Me window. Click on Continue: install-6readme.jpg

Next is the Software License Agreement window. Click on Continue: SLA.png

Next is the Destination Select window. Click Change Install Location... to change the default installation disk and folder (/Applications/freesurfer). Or click Install to go with default: install-9selectdestination.jpg

You may need to enter you password. The installation process will begin to write files and will take a few minutes to complete.

If you encounter errors during the installation, while still in the Installer, and Installer is still the primary application, click the Window -> Installer Log menu item to show the error log to see why installation failed.

Otherwise, click on Close to exit the installer.

Lastly, if you intend to run recon-all (the processing script which can run for 24 hours) on your mac, we recommend setting your Power Adapter Energy Settings to 'Never' sleep, otherwise recon-all will only run when you are logged-in. This is done under System Preferences -> Energy Saver.

If you came from the Quick Install page, return to that here.
Otherwise, setup and configuration of the environment is described next.
