I got the error: <blockquote><code>Existing configuration file (./config.inc.php) is not readable</code></blockquote> Simply change ownership on this file to yourself: - Locate the file in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php and Get Info. - Cruise down to Sharing and Permissions and add yourself by adding clicking the plus button, then selecting your name.

You'll need to enter your serial number. Basically.. if you have the hardware, and its under warranty, they'll fix it. As an aside, apparently Apple will keep records of stolen Macs if a police report and serial number is provided to them. If your lappie is still within warranty, definately buy applecare extended warranty - its worth it every time!

I have just bought a brand new macbook from someone who got it as a gift. cheers, LM HI,
