It sounds indeed sound like rewriting is not working correctly... or
if I (miss)interpret your explanation another way... like php is not
working at all. if you are "seeing index.php" I hope you are referring
to Cakes startpage and not the actual php-code of index.php, right?
Just checking.

I had a few suggestions off the top of my head.

1. Check that you actually managed to copy the .htaccess files when
moving Cake. Sometimes these files are invisible and will not always
be copied when just drag-n-dropping. Tell your ftp-client to view all
files and check that they are really there. You should have one in
each of your folders: cake_root_folder/, cake_root_folder/app/,
cake_root_folder/app/webroot/

2. Do not edit te .htaccess files. To get rewrite working you should
not have to edit anything.

3. Check the permissions on the files you uploaded. (Specifically
the .htaccess files.) While you are at it make app/tmp/ and all its
contents writable by te webserver. (chmod 777 will do for now)

4. Instead of trying to view a view-file directly, you can check that
a known image is where you expect it to be.
/img/cake.power.gif
/app/webroot/img/cake.power.gif
If I understood your setup correctly both these should point to the
same image. The first one will work if rewriting is running.

That's all  got at the moment, good luck.
