When I open a new file I want it to pop-up in a new frame. I've set pop-up-frames to t, but it still opens files that I double-click in Finder in existing buffers which results in other buffers being hidden.

If you're using emacsclient, opening files with
emacsclient -c
will open a new frame for each file. Not sure how this would work on OS X, but in XFCE I can set such a command for a filetype.

I have switched from the brew formula railwaycat/emacsmacport/emacs-mac to standard emacs using brew install emacs --with-cocoa --with-gnutls --with-imagemagick --with-librsvg --with-mailutils, which compiles with the --with-ns switch per default (which the other port apparently does not contain). This required fixing up a few things such as the modifier keys. I'm also missing the Emoji & Symbols menu entry and the pixel-wise smooth scrolling, but I think I will get used to it.
find-file-other-frame. You can call it withC-x 5 for remap this function toC-x C-f. – Nsukami _ Dec 9 '15 at 22:27ns-find-file.
