# MAC installation help please!

 * I installed MAMP and it is up and running.
 * When I get to WordPress 5-minute install, I follow the directions, then I run
   into the ultimate snag (for me). Upload everything!!!!
 * Do I create an FTP or RDS to the Users/stanopoly/Sites/wordpress folder that 
   MAMP instructed me to make?
 * Or do I add the files to my website folder and upload it via my website?
 * I tried both. If i open /wp-admin/install.php through my website, I get multiple
   errors, one of which says it is already installed.
 * If I try to create an FTP, I’m unsure of my settings. Do I put as my FTP host
   localhost/Users/stanopoly/Sites/wordpress?
 * Obviously I’m confused… anyone?
