JMP Pro for Mac and Windows

JMP Pro  is Statistical Analysis software from SAS. 

There are two variants of JMP, "JMP" and "JMP Pro".  They are identical apart from additional features enabled in the "Pro" license.  Our license is for JMP Pro.   All references to JMP here should be assumed to refer to JMP Pro.  Dartmouth licenses are annual, and must be renewed each year.  

Step-by-Step (JMP 18)

The current version of JMP is 18. With this latest version, JMP.com require us to identify individual authorized users.

  1. To install JMP 18, send email to Research Computing with your name and NetID.  Once added to the list of users, you will receive mail from jmp.com with a download link for the installer.  
  2. Alternatively, the installers are available at rcweb.dartmouth.edu/downloads/jmp/JMP_18/  However,  the licensing step will fail unless you are already on the list of authorized users.
  3. After installing, JMP will prompt for your email address, verify it with email containing a code which must be entered into JMP. and then install a license.   Use your full Dartmouth email, not a variation or alias.
  4. After this step is complete, you do not need to be on-network to use JMP.  However, we appreciate it if you install KeyAccess so that when you are on the campus network, we can track JMP usage.

Step-by-Step (JMP 17)

JMP 17 is still available.  The license installation is slightly different.

  1. Download the appropriate JMP installer file.
  2. Download the appropriate JMP license file.  Use File:Save As or Download Linked File to save the file.  It is a text file.
  3. Download the latest JMP updater file, if any, from rcweb.dartmouth.edu/downloads/jmp/  (currently 17.2 is the latest.  Unfortunately the updater may be larger than the original installer, but can only be applied after the original install).
     
  4. To install JMP:

Mac:

  • Double-click jmppro__1720__mac.dmg to mount it.
  • Double-click the .pkg file to start the installer.
  • Click Continue; Continue; Install.
  • Enter your computer password when prompted, then click Install Software.
  • When the installer finishes, click Close.
  • This installs JMP 17.2 on your system.

Windows:

  • Run the downloaded .exe file directly.  It is an MSI installer   

    5. To update JMP (if needed).  This can only be done on a computer with JMP  already installed.

Mac:

  • If an update was available, double-click jmpupdater_XXX_mac_pro.dmg to mount it
  • Double-click JMP Pro XXX.pkg to start the installer. 
  • Click Continue; Continue; Install.
  • Enter your computer password when prompted, then click Install Software.
  • When the installer finishes, click Close.

Windows:

  • If an update was available, run jmpupdater__XXX__win__pro.exe.  

   6.  To run JMP and add the license file:

  • Locate the newly installed JMP Pro 17 application and run it.
  • If the license bundled with the installer requires updating, you will be prompted by a “Provide Your JMP License” window. Click the Open License button.
  • Navigate to the .txt license file you downloaded, click on it to select it, then click the Choose button.
  • You will be prompted by a “Personalize Your JMP License” window; optionally enter your name. Click OK.
  • You should then see a “Your license has been accepted. Thank You” dialog; click OK.
  • If prompted to Register, click Wait to Register.
  • If, on launch, the splash screen displays Administrator: this license is temporary, you will need to manually force installation of a new license as described below

You should now be all set to run JMP Pro.

Details

JMP  is an annually renewed site license.  For new license files as they become available, or new updates to JMP, check rcweb.dartmouth.edu/downloads/jmp/.  This license does not require you to be on the Dartmouth network to use it.  However, we ask that you also install KeyAccess client so that usage information may be gathered, and subsequent renewals justified.

If on launch the splash screen displays:

  Organization: <Unknown>
  Administrator: this license is temporary

you'll need to perform a manual license update:

  1. Launch JMP Pro. From the File menu, choose New > New Script to open a script window.
  2. Enter this one line of scripting: renew license();
  3. From the Edit menu, choose Run Script.
  4. In the resulting Renew Your JMP License dialog, click Open License and navigate to the license file you downloaded above.

A Primer on using JMP may be found at www.jmp.com/en_us/learning-library.html

Licenses for earlier versions of JMP may still be available at rcweb.dartmouth.edu/downloads/jmp/, but we recommend keeping your JMP installation current.
