Try this:

-Get Info on the Pd application
- Select 'Show Package Contents which will open another window in the

- Navigate to Contents->Resources->extra
- drag Gem.pd_darwin into the Extra directory
- use -lib Gem in your .pdrc

Please post the console messages if Gem doesn't load using this method.
