I think I need to make a shortcut of this answer.

Move the planeshift folder that you downloaded on the dmg file into your applications folder and run t he game from inside the applications folder. The dmg file you downloaded is a disk image that you don't have permission to write to thus you can't update the files on the dmg. Once you moce the game folder into your application folder you will have permissions to write in the files so you can update.

Sarva, that really needs to be in the installation sticky.
Maybe you can hijack Chaos' post?  :whistling:
