I had no problems on Linux, by the way. Perhaps someone out there that is more mac-savvy than me can help? Basically I followed the standard instructions (setting up network.prtocol-handler.* through about:config etc.) but I kept getting the infamous "protocol (org-protocol) isn't associated with any program" no matter what target I tried (/usr/local/bin/emacsclient, etc.). Then I found a hint that maybe it had to be changed globally for the whole mac (using http://www.monkeyfood.com/software/moreInternet/) but this application does not allow me to point to /usr/local/bin/emacsclient. I did allow me to point the protocol to, e.g., Emacs.app, and that worked popping up emacs, but it is not what one wants. Then I came upon the "Platypus" wrapper and made an emacsclient.app but moreInternet did not like that either. Can someone who has been successful with a mac give me a hint?
