URGENT - Conda won't install Nose (on mac) - Please help!!! Thanks

[Eileen S.]

Happy New Year, everyone!

This is an urgent message:

Can anybody please help me, as I am struggling to install the nose package, making it impossible to do my task for university. 

I get the following error: IO Error 13 "Permission Denied" (see below)

Since I am a beginner in programming, I would be grateful for a detailed explanation, otherwise I simply won't understand what you are talking about. 

Thanks a lot in advance.

Cheers =D

When you installed Anaconda Did you choose "For All Users" or "Only For Myself"?  This could be a permissions type error. See issue https://github.com/conda/conda/issues/4534
