• Viewer for SPSS files

    From jasoncraggs@gmail.com@21:1/5 to All on Mon Dec 16 14:46:28 2019
    So far, none of the responses actually provide details about how to get a program that allows you to view SPSS output files (not data files), so I'm posting instructions for that even though the question was asked a while ago.
    IBM does make a free program for viewing SPSS output files (.spv files), called SmartReader. It's surprisingly hard to track down a link to download it, but this worked for me:
    1. Go here https://www-01.ibm.com/marketing/iwm/iwm/web/preLogin.do?source=swg-tspssp
    2. If you don't have one already, you'll need to create an IBM account (and opt out of their mailing lists on three separate pages...)
    3. Once you've created your account, return to the log in page above and log in.
    4. Scroll down and select "Tools for SPSS Statistics Products Multiplatform" and then download the files relevant for your operating system (note that if you're using Chrome you'll need to switch from the default "Download Director" to "download from
    http" in the tab at the top).
    Cheers,
    Rose

    Seconded in 2020! I'll be printing this out and sharing with my department. A lot of them don't have their own copies of SPSS, but I get the feeling that a lot would appreciate this.

    Hi Rose
    Thanks for the information. Does not work with OS Catalina though, at least not yet as it seems

    It's 2021, and actually IBM hides download links for Smartreader at

    <https://community.ibm.com/community/user/datascience/viewdocument/extensions-tools-and-utilities-for?CommunityKey=886b6874-0fb1-402c-8243-c70ef8179a99&tab=librarydocuments>

    The zip file for version 27 Windows 64 bit contains two exe files and
    one msi file. I tried "SmartReader.exe" first and it did the setup.

    Has anyone been able to find the mac version anywhere recently? When I follow the instructions from this link (provided by previous posters):
    https://community.ibm.com/community/user/ai-datascience/viewdocument/extensions-tools-and-utilities-for?CommunityKey=886b6874-0fb1-402c-8243-c70ef8179a99&tab=librarydocuments
    it tells me to go here "Tools for SPSS Statistics...": https://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/iwm/web/preLogin.do?source=swg-tspssp

    but then there is no smartreader for mac there. :(
    If anyone has had luck finding the smartreader for mac, please, let me know and I will be very greatful!!!

    Thanks everyone for the useful info. I was so lost on how to open the SPSS output sent by a client.
