If you launch MAMP and select 'preferences' you could try changing the apache port to something like 8885 (or something similar) and see if you can get to your server with localhost:8885. A colleague had skype takeover his WAMP port just yesterday. But why use a windows product, when you can go mac? ;-) I didn’t have any problems, but if something like IM has a hold on the port you specified that would cause a conflict.

I keep getting a 'can't connect' error. It can't connect through the identified socket. Sorry to bother, I know you're not the help desk! Mike W,
