djsoileau on "Problem with installation - prior database?"

$

I am trying to install Wordpress on my MAC, and I spent yesterday getting familiar with MAMP, etc. I am following the directions on the Wordpress.org website for simple installation. My site will be hosted by Bluehost at some point.

Once I get past the updated config file, it tells me I already have wordpress installed and need to delete prior databases. I have no idea what to do. I deleted everything to do with prior attempts to install Wordpress (I thought). The only databases showing in my MAMP admin are:

Database
information_schema
mysql
performance_schema
wordpress

And the wordpress database is the one I just created during the install. Any ideas? I am very new and trying to learn how all this works as I go along.

Thanks for any help you can provide.
