update available, but no permission?

[Atalanta93]

I've just downloaded the game to my mac, and I can't wait to try it out, but whenever I open the launcher, it just says that there is an update, but I don't have the correct permissions to continue. Any ideas?
I've tried opening the game directly, but I just get to the login-site and then it says the connection to the server failed. I could really use a helping hand, I'm not that good with the technical stuff 

Cheers!

Hello,

make sure you have the game installed correctly (you must unpack the dmg-file):

If it still does not work, try this:

Good luck!
