Hi Mosé, 

Thank you for your prompt response, sorry for not responding earlier.

I did not add the search path explicitly as it was placed under the site-lisp 
directly inside the emacs distribution
 /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/site-lisp
This directory should be available automatically by emacs. Emacs does find and 
execute the main auctex-file, so I believed that the path was not necessary. 
This might be my error.

A correction:
I made a mistake in my test with the 24.5, I was too quick on the keyboard With 
the auctex error there is no syntax highlighting. I installed 24.5 and AucTeX 
and opened emacs with a latex file and got syntax highlighting so I believed 
auctex was loaded but it was not, at the time of me sending the mail. Some more 
testing showed that my Mac had started Emacs from the dmg file that was still 
open at the time of testing and only loaded the standard latex mode and gave me 
syntax highlighting and I jumped to the conclusion that all was working… But 
when the dmg was unmounted AucTeX was not working.

So the latest AucTeX-build did not work on 24.5….
I later tried the old Au11.89 and Em 24.5 without success (same error) so I 
went for Au 11.88 and Em 24.5 and can confirm that this works for me.
I have AucTex in the distribution place
 /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/site-lisp
and 

Hope this helps some one:

Best,
Lars
