 ====== Mathematica ====== ====== Mathematica ======
  
-The School has a license for Mathematica which allows us to run it on any **University-owned** (departmental or research group) system. It'available for Windows, Macintosh, Linux, and several UNIX platforms. The license does not extend to home or other personally-owned systems.+Mathematica is available via several sources
  
-    * [[http://www.physics.umn.edu/resources/myphys/|Software downloads are in MyPhys]]+=== SPA Managed Computers === 
 +Mathematica is available or can be installed on any SPA managed computer 
 +  On linux enter ''module avail'' to view the available versions, and ''module load mathematica'' to load the newest 
 +  * On Windows it should be available to install via Software Center, if not contact [[net@physics.umn.edu]] with the computer name 
 +    * Mathematica is also available via [[https://apps.umn.edu|Apps To Go]] on any device
  
-For students, the Institute of Technology makes Mathematica available to its students and those in other colleges that pay the IT Technology FeeMore information is available at www.itlabs.umn.edu+=== Students === 
 +Students can obtain a license for personal use from the [[https://it.umn.edu/mathematica%C2%AE-wolfram|Office of Information Technology]] or the [[https://wwws.cs.umn.edu/download_software/mathematica|College of Science and Engineering]]
  
-===== Installation Instructions =====+=== Research Groups === 
 +Research groups can download and install through the College of Science and Engineering's license. It can be downloaded [[https://wwws.cs.umn.edu/download_software/mathematica|here]], the license server address is: ''swlicense4.oit.umn.edu''
  
-This web page contains outlines for how to access the installation packages on our network and how to obtain license codes, for departmentally-owned computers. For full installation instructions, you should consult the directions at the [[http://documents.wolfram.com|Wolfram Documentation Web Site]]. 
- 
-You can obtain Mathematica from your MyPhys page (login required). ISO images (for burning to CD) are provided for Unix and Windows, while a self-mounting CD image is provided for Macintosh. 
- 
-==== License Setup ==== 
- 
-If you are using a computer on the Tate Lab network, the easiest thing to do is enter the name of our license server, instead of obtaining a password. The name of our license server is **mathlm.spa.umn.edu** 
- 
-If you are using a laptop or other system which may not have network connectivity within Tate Lab, you will need to obtain a password from Wolfram. Complete Wolfram's registration form on the web at [[http://register.wolfram.com/]] using the license code and organization name provided in the [[https://www.physics.umn.edu/resources/myphys/software/|software downloads area]]. You should (after some time) receive a license code by email. 
- 
-==== Finding your MathID ==== 
- 
-Either run the Mathematica installer - the licensing setup routine will provide the MathID for you. 
- 
-or... 
- 
-Run Mathematica and type "$MachineID" (shift-Enter). 
- 
-//If your license has already expired, you may need to set your computer clock back in order to run this command.//
