Hi All,

the question is pretty simple: how can I enable the .htaccess file on Mac to let the clean urls work?

I use MAMP, it works fine. I changed "AllowOverride All" to "AllowOverride None". But still no clean urls!

What else can I do?

Thank you :-)

You need to restart apache to get it to use updated settings. There's more to clean urls than changing "AllowOverride" though! Good luck!

For me using clean URLs worked out of the box with MAMP. Have you made any changes to the default MAMP config?

By default osx does't display hidden files. If you use a program like Tinker Tool you will be able to enable osx to show hidden files like .htacess. You can then copy the now visible htaccess file to your drupal install. At least that's why I couldn't get clean urls on mamp. Hopefully this helps.
