I installed the latest Houdini apprentice 13.0.570 and it can't open even if the non-commercial license check is OK and I clicked “Run” to start Houdini.

It keeps going through the Houdini License Administrator window again and again …

Does anybody have the same issue?

See if this works

Make sure you've enough privileges too when installing.

Thanks, MartybNz!

But I think my apprentice license is installed correctly (see images below).

It is the following steps that keep looping continuously the first time I open Houdini after installation.

Same problem when I tried to open houdini through houdini shell terminal.

Advices are greatly appreciated!

I'm not sure but it may be getting confused with the H12 licenses.

This is probably a dumb way to do it but I would go and move the licenses out of the location on the hard drive to another folder, say onto the desktop:

The licenses are in:
/Library/Preferences/sesi

Then reinstall Houdini.
