This is a common problem on osx when people simply to a python setup.py install. On OSX it doesn't copy the admin templates from the source to site-packages. So, from wherever you are running python setup.py install copy django/contrib/admin/templates into /Library/ Python/2.x/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/.
As mentioned though, if you just symlink from the downloaded source into site-packages then you won't have this problem. There was a ticket for it, but I can't remember the number.
