Hello Paul,
Here is what I've done :
1) check you've the org-elpa repository configured :
my package-archives has this value
(("gnu" . "http://elpa.gnu.org/packages/")
("marmalade" . "http://marmalade-repo.org/packages/")
("melpa" . "http://melpa.milkbox.net/packages/")
("org-elpa" . "http://orgmode.org/elpa/"))
2) install melpa package from melpa (special handling for the MELPA repository [github])
3) exclude org from melpa by adding / customize var package-archive-exclude-alist. Mine has this value '(("melpa" org)) this is explained on melpa home page in customization section (near http://melpa.milkbox.net/#installing).
4) uninstall org-2013...
5) exit emacs then install org-20130715 (you should only see a version like yyyymmdd and no longer see a version with yyyymmdd_hhmm)
Hope this could help
Pierre
