Did someone else install it in the applications folder/are you an administrator on your computer?
If you aren't, you can't modify the Applications folder.

Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind- bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the drug store, but that's just peanuts to space.

You should be able to go into ~/Library/Preferences/Wesnoth/data/campaigns/ and save the user campaign there directly in order to install it.
The other location to save campaigns (older versions of Wesnoth for mac os X) is [battle for wesnoth app] > Show package contents > Contents/Resources/data/campaigns/. But, if you can't save files in the game's images folder then this probably won't work either.
So, while you may not have persmission to add files to the game's images folder, you should have access to your own account's preferences (~/Library/Preferences/etc. - the first way)
