IBM SPSS Statistics 20 Windows Installation Instructions (Site License) These instructions are for installing IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows using a site license. A site license allows you to install SPSS Statistics for Windows on as many computers as the number of licenses you purchased. This document is for end users who are installing SPSS Statistics for Windows on desktop computers. Before starting installation, be sure your system date is correct, Changing the system date after installation may make your license invalid! After installation, be sure to install latest patches. See "Problems, Bugs " for more info. System Requirements for IBM SPSS Statistics Operating System Microsoft Windows XP (32-bit), Vista (32 or 64 bit), or Windows 7 (32 or 64 bit). Hardware Configuration Intel or AMD processor, 1GHz or higher. 1 GB of RAM or more. 800 MB of available hard-disk space. Super VGA (1024x768) or a higher-resolution monitor. Software Internet Explorer 6.0 You will also need your authorization code, which you should have received from OIT. It activates your license for Base, Advanced and Regression products.

Installing IBM SPSS Statistics Before Starting Installation Make sure you have administrator privileges. Make sure your system date is correct! If you have an earlier version of SPSS or PASW, installing IBM SPSS Statistics 20 will not replace it. You may want to uninstall the older version once you have confirmed that everything is working. If you have customized menus or toolbars, they will not automatically carry over to the new version. If you still have SPSS 15 on your system, note that if you open it, files with *.sav, *.sps extensions will be re-registered to SPSS 15 double-clicking one of these files will open them in the SPSS 15, not IBM SPSS Statistics 20. See "File Associations" for how to correct this. Starting Installation Windows XP When download is complete, Double-click the downloaded file to begin installation. Select Run, and follow the instructions that appear on the screen. See During Installation below for further instructions. Windows Vista or Windows 7 Right-click the downloaded file and choose Run as Administrator. Select Run, and follow the instructions that appear on the screen. Refer to During Installation for further instructions. During Installation License type. Be sure to select Site License. Read and accept the license agreement. Proceed through the dialogs. Destination Folder: The default location does NOT replace earlier versions of SPSS/PASW. After successful installation of IBM SPSS Statistics 20, you can uninstall earlier versions. Help language. SPSS Statistics provides the ability to change the user interface language. If you want the help language to always match the user interface language, select the languages you may use. Installing help for additional languages increases disk space requirements by 60-70 MB for each language. Licensing Your Product After the main part of the installation is complete, click OK on the "License and Registration" screen to launch the License Authorization Wizard. The License C:\Word\license_docs\SPSS\SPSS20\SPSS 20 Installation_download.rtf 2
Authorization Wizard allows you to obtain a license for SPSS Statistics for Windows. Note: Licenses are tied to your computer s hardware with a lock code. If you replace your computer or its hardware, you will have a new lock code and will need to repeat the authorization process. If you find that you exceeded the allowable number of authorizations specified in the license agreement, contact OIT Administrative Desk. If you need to re-install on the same hardware, be sure to save your license first. See "Reinstallation" for instructions. Warning! The license is sensitive to time changes. If you must change the system time and then cannot run the product, contact OIT Administrative Desk. Using the License Authorization Wizard Note: If you are running Windows Vista or Windows 7, you may be prompted for administrator credentials. Without the correct credentials, you will not be able to run the License Authorization Wizard. If you don t launch the License Authorization Wizard during installation, you can launch it later. You must run it as Administrator. From the Windows Start menu, Choose IBM SPSS Statistics License Authorization Wizard. On Windows Vista or Windows 7, right-click the License Authorization shortcut and choose "Run as Administrator". When prompted, choose License my product now. Enter the authorization code you got from OIT. (Use ctrl-v to Paste the authorization code into the License Authorization dialog.) You can use an authorization code for only as many installations as specified on your license. If you need to reinstall SPSS Statistics on the same machine, see "Reinstallation" for how to preserve your license. If you only want to use SPSS Statistics on this machine for a short time, select "Enable a temporary trial period ". See "Enabling a Trial License" below for instructions. The License Authorization Wizard sends your authorization code over the Internet to IBM SPSS and automatically retrieves your license. If your computer is behind a proxy, click Configure proxy settings and enter the appropriate settings. Firewalls may prevent successful licensing over the Internet. If the authorization process fails (for example, due to a firewall), you will be prompted to send an e-mail message. The message must include your authorization code, "lock code", and SPSS version. The lock code is displayed on the Product Authorization screen of the License Authorization Wizard. If you choose the desktop option, a new message with the appropriate information will be created automatically. If you choose the Web-based option, copy and paste the message text from the License Authorization Wizard into your e-mail application, and send to the address shown. When the license code arrives (which may be almost immediately), if you've closed the License Authorization Wizard, restart it. Select License my product now, and paste the C:\Word\license_docs\SPSS\SPSS20\SPSS 20 Installation_download.rtf 3
license you got in the email from IBM (not the Authorization code) into the Enter Codes panel. Click Next. Note: Use ctrl-v to Paste the license into the License Authorization dialog. Enabling a Trial License You can enable a 14-day trial license instead of installing the regular license. Launch the License Authorization Wizard. Choose Enable a temporary trial period. At the Trial License prompt, click the Browse button to locate trial.txt. The Trial License Wizard will find the license from the file in the SPSS installation directory and automatically fill in the box. Finish the Authorization wizard. File Associations If you have SPSS 15 on your machine, then opening that will result in spss file associations reverting to SPSS 15. This means when you double-click an spss file, it will open SPSS 15, rather than SPSS Statistics 20. After the SPSS 15 license expires, it will continue to attempt to open, but will fail. To remedy the situation, you will need to uninstall SPSS 15, then uninstall and reinstall SPSS Statistics 20. Before you uninstall SPSS Statistics 20, be sure to preserve your license file. See Reinstallation. Alternatively, instead of re-installing SPSS Statistics 20, you could re-set the file associations for *.sav and *.sps files to open with IBM SPSS Statistics 20. However, for machines with multiple logons, this would have to be done on each user's logon. Reinstallation Your SPSS license is locked to your machine. You cannot re-use your authorization code in order to retrieve your license. You must save your license file before uninstalling IBM SPSS Statistics. Using My Computer, browse to the IBM SPSS Statistics 20 installation folder. Copy the file lservrc to another location. This is your license file. Double-click your installation file to re-start installation. On the "Program Maintenance" screen, select "Remove". After removal is complete, re-install IBM SPSS Statistics 20. When you get to the Licensing step, select Cancel. You cannot use the License Wizard to restore your license. After installation is complete, copy your license file, lservc, back to the IBM SPSS Statistics 20 installation directory. Download and re-install any patches. SPSS Legacy Viewer SPSS Statistics 20 cannot read output (*.spo) files created by SPSS 15 or earlier. In order to read these files you must download and install the SPSS Legacy Viewer (aka SPSS SmartReader).
