Answer 1

Look into your /etc/httpd.conf file and see if you have Virtual hosts activated.

If so, check your etc/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf file. You might have set up a VirtualHost already.

EDIT: I have found that once you turn on Virtual Hosts, XAMPP needs a default VirtualHost for your basic htdocs files

Try adding a default VirtualHost (at the bottom of the file) like so:

ServerName localhost
DocumentRoot "/Applications/XAMPP/htdocs"

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes execCGI
AllowOverride All
Order Allow,Deny
Allow From All
