Installation guide: Wrong edition (Mac)

Stata or StataNow

We show screenshots and instructions for StataNow, but any differences if you do not have StataNow are slight and will not cause confusion.

If you are receiving the message "Your license is not applicable to this Stata," it is likely because you have installed an edition of Stata that does not match the activation key you entered.

Click on Update license... and you will be prompted to enter the correct license information.

Refer to your License and Activation Key that you originally received from Stata if you are unsure which version of Stata to install.
