Docker error: client and server don't have same version

Since I just updated Docker to 1.1.0 I get:

Error response from daemon: client and server don't have same version (client : 1.13, server: 1.12)

Do you know how to fix this?

I switched back to 1.0.1 and everything works again.

It looks like you need to upgrade the VM after installing boot2docker:

if you are upgrading from boot2docker 0.12 or later, you can update your existing virtual machine (after upgrading using the installer) using boot2docker stop && boot2docker download && boot2docker up - and you will not lose your existing data.
