I find the easiest way to do this in emacs is NOT to make the command
key into meta. That way I still have the Cmd-C, Cmd-X and Cmd-V keys
that work the same inside and outside Aquamacs.
If I do this, I can simply use Cmd-C in, e.g., firefox, then go to
aquamacs and do Cmd-V, just like any other pair of mac applications.
I find having clear access to BOTH the emacs and mac cut buffers much
less confusing than trying to make them stick together. (I don't like
smooshing the X and emacs cut buffers together on linux, either).
This is very much a minority opinion, but you could try it, and see if
it works for you.
If you want to try it, you can use the Aquamacs menu
Options > Option, Command, Meta keys > Option is meta
If you make heavy use of accents in your emacs, this is a losing choice,
though. I don't, because any serious text I compose will be in latex,
anyway.
