Trying to spread the luv for EVE and all I get is troubleshooting :(

As mentioned in the title a friend of mine downloaded the client but can't install it. I never had a mac and know nothing about it, so I'll paste you all the info he sent me and hopefully you could tell me how he should proceed.

First, his mac isn't exactly brand new:
