i've installed it in the directory that i created but i'm getting this error "You do not have permission to view this page or perform this action." when i try to view www.mybbexamplesite.com/community from admin account, but i can view it from a normal user account.

That's a typical permissions issue - you can use the permissions analyzer to determine which settings are incorrect.
Difficult to say what the issue is without a link to the site, but you would need to confirm they were imported.
If the paths were incorrect, they won't have been imported and you will need to start over.
i have htaccess file but i think i edited it for my previous script (mybb) because it wasn't displaying "www" for my domain.
this is my htaccess script

Redirections need to happen explicitly -- you would need to take steps to do it. That really depends on the structure of your old URLs. Here's an example based on a particular URL structure: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/redirecting-mybb-urls.28809/
