Here is a small recipe for using the latest Org-mode development version with Aquamacs which works fine for me.

(1) Do a 

git clone git://repo.or.cz/org-mode.git

in some directory of your choide, e.g. your home directory. 

(2) cd to the new "org-mode" directory. Assuming you have installed Aquamacs in /Applications (default), change line 14 to:

EMACS=/Applications/Aquamacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Aquamacs

(3) make lisp/org-install.el
(4) make compile

(5) (optional and requires MacTeX or similar) 
make doc/org.pdf

(6) Insert these lines in your .emacs file:

(setq load-path (cons "~/org-mode/lisp" load-path))
(require 'org-install)

this assumes that (1) created an org-mode directory in your home directory.

(7) Restart Aquamacs (you can later find out about more subtle methods than restarting Emacs which does not take long these days)

Warm regards,
 Stefan
