Incompatible library version: imagick.so requires version 18.0.0 or later, but libfreetype.6.dylib provides version 16.0.0 in Unknown on line 0

Question

I installed imagemagic and imagick successfully (using http://www.php.net/manual/en/imagick.installation.php#94169 steps ) and also put extension=imagick.so. but when i restart apache i am getting following error.

Unable to load dynamic library /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.5.3/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20121212/imagick.so

dlopen(/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.5.3/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20121212/imagick.so,

/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.5.3/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20121212/imagick.so

Reason: Incompatible library version: imagick.so requires version 18.0.0 or later, but libfreetype.6.dylib provides version 16.0.0 in Unknown on line 0

I am using Mac OSX (10.8.5), php 5.5.3 under mamp

Any help appreciated on how to solve this! Thanks
