Hey, On the contrary, accessing the library folder, hidden or not, is easy via Finder. Hit cmd-shift-g, to open the “Go to Folder,” dialog, and type “~/library,” without the quotes. ~ is a Unixism for your home folder. You will be taken to the Library folder and able to dive in as you see fit. I’d caution against cavalier editing of anything in there without directions, though. It’s really meant mostly for programs to use, hence why it’s hidden from end users normally. Yours, Zack. On Aug 4, 2013, at 11:29 AM, Georgina Joyce <[email protected]> wrote:
