I'm trying to set up the software for the rapid design of PLAYR probes, as described in this paper: https://www.nature.com/articles/nmeth.3742#supplementary-information 

I'm using the GenomicFeatures library, but this line is giving me an error message. Here's the line, followed by the error message, followed by the output of traceback().

> txdb <- makeTxDbFromUCSC(genome = "hg19", tablename = "refGene")
Error in tableNames(ucscTableQuery(session, track = track)) :
  error in evaluating the argument 'object' in selecting a method for function 'tableNames': Error in normArgTrack(track, trackids) : Unknown track: RefSeq Genes

> traceback()
2: tableNames(ucscTableQuery(session, track = track))
1: makeTxDbFromUCSC(genome = "hg19", tablename = "refGene")

I've read the documentation of the makeTxDbFromUCSC function available here: https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/manuals/GenomicFeatures/man/GenomicFeatures.pdf, but I'm having a hard time understanding the error message.

As suggested by the Posting Guide, here's the output of sessionInfo(). Let me know if I need to provide any other information.

Your version of R, Bioconductor, and GenomicFeatures appears to be out-of-date.  Updgrading your version of R to the current release and following the instructions to update Bioconductor may solve the issue.
