I've been running Org-mode 8 on my MacBook, and Org-mode 7.something on 
my office Mac. I've tried to upgrade the office one to 8 using the 
'list-packages', and it seems to install, but org-version always shows 
up as 7.something afterwards.

Now, completely outside emacs, I installed some software and my MacBook 
using MacPorts. But now somehow the org-mode on my MacBook as been 
downgraded to 7.9.3f and, of course, using list-packages to upgrade 
doesn't work.

Does anyone have any clue what's going on here? I'd like to upgrade to 
8.whatever on all machines.

Please read the Installation section of the manual carefully.
If you install from ELPA, you need to do it from a fresh Emacs
session where Org has not been loaded.

Otherwise I'd suggest installing from git directly.

HTH,

I never had to install it before, since it was included with the OS X 
emacs I installed. I tried the "fresh" session ("emacs -nw 
--no-init-file"), but still was not able to get list-packages to update it.

The git install appears to have worked.

Thanks!
