It seems like @nathanleclaire 's comment on the thread "Error response from daemon: client is newer than server" (here) is the important step that many docker machine user's take in order to resolve the following error :

docker: Error response from daemon: client is newer than server (client API version: 1.24, server API version: 1.23).
See 'docker run --help'.

Since we can detect client is newer than server , I wonder if it might be useful to modify the output to suggest the user run docker-machine upgrade. Has this been considered?

Thanks for the suggestion -- It would have to go in upstream docker/docker and probably a bit out of scope for the Docker CLI since the remote daemon you are attempting to connect to is not necessarily a Docker Machine VM. e.g., it might be a newer Linux binary connecting to an older Linux daemon all on the same OS.
