font issue

Hi - I've heard excellent things about Calibre and I'm excited to get started using it. The problem is, I have not been able to get the application to work. I downloaded the .dmg file and copied it to my applications folder, but when I click on the icon to open the application I get this error message:

OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/Ulsers'/klaas2/.fonts'

And the console message is:

I'll admit that I don't quite know what I'm doing, or how to fix it - if you have any suggestions I would appreciate it!
