It says "Org-mode version 7.7". However, I feel that there was
something strange with my installation. I checked my files in my Emacs
folder and everything seemed really messed up, so I just reinstalled
org from the latest build and now it works! I had tried that before
automatically with the package manager but now I used the package
manager to install it from the file. I think that is where the strange
installation came from originally.

It is not clear to me what you are saying here:

Did the package manager solve your problem or it didn't solve your
problem?

What version of emacs are you using? There were two previous instances
where people had issues with org-macs.el not being available when
certain files were compiled.

I have a feeling that it is not the problem with the people as such but
how package manager goes about compiling the files.

So any information you provide here will help improve the situation for
other folks.

Sorry, I didn't get into too much detail here because I had the feeling that the problem might have been cause by me not being able to use the package manager correctly rather than the package manager itself. But if it could help others, of course, I'm sharing the details as far as I understand them.

I'm using Aquamacs (for Mac OS):

GNU Emacs 23.3.50.1 (i386-apple-darwin9.8.0, NS apple-appkit-949.54)
of 2011-10-25 on braeburn.aquamacs.org - Aquamacs Distribution 2.4

When I run "package-list-packages", I get the message "Failed to download `Org-mode' archive." (didn't note that before), but it still offered the latest version of Org nevertheless. I could install it from there and Org appeared to be updated to version 7.7, but somehow the macro "org-eval-in-environment" was only found after reloading Org uncompiled after every restart of Emacs. This could be repeated infinitely, i.e., I always got this error message when running "package-list-packages" and it always offered me to install Org. Now I downloaded the tar-file manually and installed it with "package-install-file". Now "org-eval-in-environment" is found normally. After "package-list-files" I still get the message "Failed to download `Org-mode' archive.", but it shows Org as installed and does no longer offer to install it.

I hope that was more helpful. If you need more information, I will be happy to try to provide it.
