That's true, MAMP PRO is stored in '~/' folder as MAMP folder
so should open it by

cd ~/MAMP/bin/ && mysql -uroot -p
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

I have MAMP Pro on Ventura (though I started with just MAMP back on Catalina but upgraded within weeks), and my ~/MAMP PRO directory doesn't have a bin directory.

I do have a /Applications/MAMP/Library/bin/mysql file, so I don't know why @senhleeiclee's path is different. Did macOS or MAMP Pro change somehow? Or do the paths depend on when you install/upgrade? This seems like such a mess 😆 that shouldn't exist in the first place. Silly users wanting consistent sensible file paths.
