If /bin is before /usr/local/bin on the path, bash --version is like /bin/bash --version. Try echo $BASH_VERSION instead. Did you add shopt -s autocd to ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc?

Tried again to use newer bash but even running /usr/local/bin/bash and then bash --version says 3.2.51(1) after a brew install bash saying 4.2.45 already installed

@MichaelDurrant I removed the screenshot from the answer since both Terminal and iTerm 2 should default to opening a login shell. If the default shell is /usr/bin/local/bash without --login, .bash_profile isn't loaded.

@MichaelDurrant Is your terminal application set to open with something like /usr/bin/login or login -fp $USER in the preferences?

| Jul 10, 2012 at 2:53 | comment | added | Michael Durrant | it works if i run the command directly /usr/local/bin/bash - i get v4.2 but how do I make that my default shell for a new window? | |

@MichaelDurrant I edited the answer. bash -version would be the first version on $PATH. Did you try echo $BASH_VERSION?

| Jul 9, 2012 at 2:51 | comment | added | Michael Durrant | I did the above. I ended up with bash 4.2.29 and I made the changes to /etc/shells and did the cssh but no joy | |

Great answer. Bash 4 is also available in MacPorts:subbing sudo port install bash into your step 1 works as well.
