ok, I screwed up. I was unaware that I was still running the Homebrew version (which has the emacsclient located in /usr/local/Cellar/emacs/24.3/bin/) on this laptop even though I had downloaded the other one. After installing emacsformacosx and reopening, I had to customize-option as it was still set to /usr/bin/emacsclient. But now it works! Thanks

I am using what emacs defaulted to - /usr/bin/emacsclient - which, I guess is the old one you refer to. I did see a note in one of the bug reports about switching it to /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/bin/emacsclient but that doesn’t exist in my emacs.app install. There’s no bin directory and the only thing in /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/ is Emacs.

I'm not sure what the message is if it can not be found. The other angst is I think there is an old emacsclient somewhere on OSX that you don't want to get. You want the one associated with the emacs that you are running.
