A few points for installing Cake to run in Mamp.

Simplest way is to drop the whole Cake folder (containing
cake,app,vendors...) into Mamp's htdocs folder.
Should be: /Applications/MAMP/htdocs

That should have Cake running but you probably need / want the
database too, right. You need to rename and edit the file app/config/
database.php. That file has to know how to reach Mamp's MySQL. You can
see instructions in the Mamp control panel on the port/sockets,
username, password and things.

Those are really the two common head-scratchers I know of. I can't
help you with Eclipse but if you have some specific question about the
Mamp-Cake thing let me know.
