Just to list a few....

reinstall Ace3 your installation seams incomplete

As a note... I am a Mac user so manual install is the only way.... How should I handle the folders within the Ace3 folder itself along with the loose files within? I may have installed it wrongly in the first place.

the structure of all the files needs to stay the same.

directly under the Ace3 folder you should have a whole bunch of folders and then some text files and one .toc, one .lua and one .xml file.

in each of the subfolders you should have at the very least 2 files that have the same name as its folder but with a xml and a lua ending

check http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/faq.php?faq=install out for a nice Guide to addon instalation

"How should I handle the folders within the Ace3 folder itself along with the loose files within?"

Just extract it as it is. No magic, no nothing. Just extract everythign into your addons folder, so you have "Interface\AddOns\Ace3" which contains the loose files *and* all sub dirs.

Thanks for the tip... I had originally pulled all the 'sub folders' out and placed them into the main 'addon' folder (bad information from someone prior). That seemed to cure many of the errors.... now there's new ones in place of them as follows:
