I've set up MAMP fine and got it running, but: How do I load my current, backed up, WP database from online? Or, can you 'sync' your MAMP blog and online blog. Going with the quick install.php gave me a clean (new install blog). I had put all my backed up folders and stuff in /htdocs/wordpress, but obviously that doesn't do anything with the DB. Or was the idea of using MAMP more for playing with themes and design rather than updating your online blog posts by 'syncing' any you might have done offline? Thanks, if you're able to explain my confusion I tried asking Ben about this on the post you linked to, but the comment wouldn’t post for some reason…
