I broke MAMP when I changed the port numbers.

On my MAC, I changed ports to 80 and my MAMP is not starting anymore? When I click on "Start Servers", I get the login prompt as before, but I get the error, "Apache couldn't be started. Please check your MAMP installation and configuration." How can i get my Mamp starting again?
