How do I find out where MySQL is installed on Mac OS X 10.7.9? I have MAMP installed so I presume that it is bundled with this install?

Step 2: Verify MySQL is Running on Windows A new window will launch and display the list of services available on your system. Scroll down to find MySQL, and check the status column. Left-click the MySQL service to highlight it, then right-click to open a context menu. Finally, left-click on start.
To check MySQL version of MAMP , use the following command in Terminal:
/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/mysql --version
Assume you have started MAMP .
Example output:
./mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.1.44, for apple-darwin8.11.1 (i386) using EditLine wrapper
UPDATE: Moreover, if you want to find where does mysql installed in system, use the following command:
type -a mysql
type -a is an equivalent of tclsh built-in command where in OS X bash shell. If MySQL is found, it will show :
mysql is /usr/bin/mysql
If not found, it will show:
-bash: type: mysql: not found
By default , MySQL is not installed in Mac OS X.
Sidenote: For XAMPP, the command should be:
/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/bin/mysql --version
It will be found in /usr/local/mysql if you use the mysql binaries or dmg to install it on your system instead of using MAMP
