Figured it out for anybody out there having the same problems as me.
Turns out I was being quite silly and my directory path was incorrect. Check out this walk-through set-up tutorial here:

Good luck!

Thanks for your speedy responses. Only getting a chance to try to resolve this now. The Apache port within MAMP preferences allows you to define a document root (which I had defined previously). I have redefined this as the htdocs folder ‘/Applications/MAMP/htdocs’.
Sooooo, I’ve attempted the following in my browser:
• http://localhost:8888/Users/admin/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/wp-admin/install.php
• http://localhost:8888/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/wp-admin/install.php
• http://localhost:8888/michaels-imac.local/Users/admin/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/wp-admin/install.php
• http://localhost:8888/michaels-imac.local/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/wp-admin/install.php
Don’t know what else to try!
Thanks again for helping…
