At a minimum, the TeX process should run with synctex support.  
Normally this is done by adding a "-synctex=1" option to the command  
line arguments for the tex command. I don't know if Carbon Emacs does  
this, but my guess is that it doesn't. You can check that by seeing  
whether a file with extension .synctex or .synctex.gz is generated. So  
you need to change the default TeX command used to compile (where  
that's set is a question for emacs). Alternatively, I believe you can  
also add "\synctex=1" in the preamble of the TeX file.
