Updater says it needs Administrator permission?

[Ilea]

Hi. I downloaded the new client however when I run the updater it won't give me permission to get the updates because I'm not the Administrator, yet I am. What should I do?

-Thanks

Run it as administrator.

Thanks. But how do I do that?

If you are using A Mac click on the Planeshift folder and then do a  get info ( command I ) In the sharing and permissions at the bottom change it to read and write for you. Then select the cog like icon below that and choose to apply to the enclosed items.

I figured out how to run the program as an Adminmistrator.  Thank you for your help

it wont let me, then when i move it it lets me read and write but when i open it it pops up as an empty white block for half a second and closes.

@elizercon:  Can you be a little more specific about what problem you are having?  What are you moving or trying to read and write in?  Also, what Operating System do you use?

Mac OS X users have to install the game by moving it out of the *.dmg archive, into the "Applications" folder, before using it. The updater is not able to update files inside a *.dmg archive.
