Today I encountered the same error during the installation of Matlab 2014b - on Win7 64bit. When it finally worked I had moved the downloaded installation file to a usb stick and deselected the creation of a desktop-link.
However I guess the first thing did the trick, as at some point the installer asked for the admin credentials and then started to download files into the dir where the installer was located ... on the USB stick the admin account of course was able to write, whereas on my usual account there might have been a problem. The file mentioned in the error message simply might be the first one to be downloaded and which can't be written.
If that's really the problem, Mathworks should improve the installer in this point and respond with an appropriate description of the error.

If you have an anti-virus program running you might need to turn it off during the download.

I got this error when I install R2015b.
The walk-around is to run the Installation Executable as root/admin user.
I did this by:
- Open a terminal window
- Type the command `sudo /path/to/InstallForMacOSX`
The InstallForMacOSX.app is essentially a directory which you can cd into. The actual executable is located at /InstallForMacOSX.app/Contents/MacOS/.
So you can just cd into this directory and then type `sudo $(pwd)/InstallForMacOSX`
After you input your password and hit return, you will launch the installation as root.
Don't forget to fix the ownership. You can do this by `sudo chown $USER:staff /Applications/MATLAB_R2015b.app/`

Actually I found a fix, I had previously installed matlab on another os (dual boot window), but the install files remained. I had to remove all the old matlab files before installing it, despite the fact that they were never installed on this version of windows.
Not sure where the default mac install path is, but if that may fix your problem.
