Answer 1

Visit the phpinfo page that you can get to from inside the MAMP start page. That lists all of the loaded modules.

Here are the install steps for PHP-APC:

You may be able to run pear or pecl inside MAMP to do the install easily.

Answer 2

There's nothing to download or install. MAMP 1.9 includes APC already. To enable it, open Preferences/PHP. Uncheck 'Zend Optimizer' (because it's not compatible with APC), then choose APC from the 'Cache' drop-down box, submit the change with 'OK'.
