xcode crashes when I try to create a new project

I am currently trying to begin building a simple iPhone app but every time I try and create a project in xcode 5 it quits on me when I get to the point where I am supposed to choose the directory to save too. I have tried numerous suggestions from many other forums but to no avail. I've even reinstalled the new xcode three separate times.
I'm wondering if anyone else is having this problem and if you have found a way to fix it. I know this probably isn't the best question for Treehouse but i'm not really sure where to go. Thank you for any help!

I'm working on a 2013 Macbook Air 13" and a 27" iMac. The iMac doesn't even let me get past the license agreement.

Hi Blake, as you've got Xcode 5 problems with two totally different systems (2013 MB Air 13" & iMac 27") there most likely has to be a common denominator (a piece of software, some sort of driver/tool perhaps?) causing this problems on both Macs which would be worth searching for because it could drastically reduce the amount of time you spend on struggling for a solution...
