How do I find my saved chat logs from Messages?

People who have Mountain Lion and have "Messages" know that you can't "Save" a chat anymore manually, so I just deiced to save all of my chat logs, but where do I find them on my computer?! Somebody online said you have to go to finder Libray/Messages/Archives but I cant even find my "Library" in my finder!!!! I can't take Mountain Lion........ somebody please help!

Hi,
Your Home Folder/Library/Messages
Access using Finder > Go Menu > Hold down ALT key > Select the Library that appears > Open Messages
You will then need the Archive folder.

  • After crashing, Firefox is not re-openeing saved tabs from my last session, but is re-opening tabs from a session over a month old. How do I find my saved tabs?

    After crashing, Firefox is not re-opening saved tabs from my last session, but is re-opening tabs from a session over a month old. How do I find my saved tabs?

    This can be a problem with the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
    Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.

  • Hi! Stupid questions, but how do i find my pictures when logging in to icloud?

    how do i find my pictures when logging in to icloud?
    I have an macbook air and a iphone 4. I have chosen automatically upload of the pictures to icloud, but when i log in to icloud i can't find out where my pictures are.
    I'm pretty new at this

    The following is from this Apple document: iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
    My Photo Stream
    When you take photos on an iOS device, or import photos from your digital camera to your computer, My Photo Stream can automatically upload your new photos to iCloud and push them to all of your other devices. 
    When do photos upload to My Photo Stream?
    How long are My Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud?
    The photos you upload to My Photo Stream are stored in iCloud for 30 days to give your devices plenty of time to connect and download them.
    How many photos are stored in My Photo Stream on my devices and computers?
    iCloud pushes all your photos to the My Photo Stream album on your devices and computers, and manages them efficiently, so you don’t run out of storage space.
    Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 photos in the My Photo Stream album. From there, you can browse your recent photos or move the ones you like to your Camera Roll or another album to keep them on your device forever.
    Since your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to have all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically downloaded. In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, be sure to select Photo Stream > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will be imported into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture. On your PC with Photo Stream enabled in the Control Panel, all of your photos will be imported into C:\Users\<user name>\Pictures\Photo Stream\My Photo Stream.

  • How can I find out the mail server from email address?

    Hi:
    How can I find out the mail server from email address?
    for example: If I know the email address is [email protected],
    how to find the pop3 and smtp mail server?
    THANK YOU

    You can't tell by the email address since you can pretty much put whatever you want in there (especially if the SMTP server is not filtering anything).
    The header may be able to tell you something. There is a Received header value which looks like it has the routing information although I am not sure if this is a complete trace or just the last hop the message took.

  • How can I find and remove duplicate photos from my computer?

    How can I find and remove duplicate photos from my computer?

    Terence,
    Yes, the duplicates appear in the iPhoto window. I have folders with same name occuring two or even three times sometimes with exactly the same set of photos (ie photos with the same ID) and sometimes with a limited set of photos. Other  folders appear only once.
    I normally take my MacBook with me if I'm shooting a lot of photos, such as on holiday, and then want to transfer them to my iMac when i get home. Other times I transfer the camera's memory stick directly to my iMac.
    I have great difficulty transferring the photos from my MacBook to my iMac. I don't want to store my photos on my iDisk due to the length of time it takes to upload them.
    Thanks again.

  • HT1711 how do I find the top 5 songs from a single artist!!

    How do I find the top 5 songs from a single artist?

    If you have unchecked the compilation tag on the CD tracks before you ripped them, then what you are describing shouldn't be happening. Are you sure you are unchecking the compilation tag for all of the tracks on the CD before you rip them?
    Unfortunately, you cannot change the default directory structure that iTunes rips albums into. You can feel free to move files after they are ripped, but iTunes will always rip them into its Artist/Album/Track #_Track Name format.

  • How do i find a .mp4 file downloaded from email to my iphone

    How do i find a .mp4 file downloaded from my gmail email to my iphone. Unable to locate the file or maybe not sure how to go about it?

    You don't, as ringtones are a one time purchase and as such can't be redownloaded.
    If you still have them on your iTunes library, you may sinc them from there.
    If you have a backup that contains them, you may restore your phone from that backup.
    Or you can go to expresslane.apple.com and try for a re-issue. Which they do only occasionally and depending on the circumstances.

  • HT1206 How do I find out an OLD password from 2006-2008. I have 3,000 pieces of music purchased from iTunes during those years that cannot be authorized because I cannot remember the password from that era. What can I do?

    How do I find out an OLD password from 2006-2008. I have 3,000 pieces of music purchased from iTunes during those years that cannot be authorized because I cannot remember the password from that era. What can I do?

    If you can't remember your password or security answers and don't have access to the email address (you didn't have a rescue email address on the account ?) then you can try contacting Support in your country and seeing if you can get the password reset and access to the account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 (they should also be able to reset the security questions)
    If you can then update the primary email address on the account to be an address that you have access to.

  • Saving chat logs when reseting computer

    Hi!
    My laptop is in desperate need of some tough love so I'm going to reset it to the way it was when I bought it. The problem is that it means I will lose all saved data and I really don't want to loose my chat history. Is there any way to save skype with all chat logs on say an external HD and then reinstall it on my laptop again when I'm done? Or will I have to choose between having an incredibly slow computer (possibly with a virus on it) and hours of hours of conversations that  are really important to me?
    Thanks in andvance!

    Hi, Allvitr, and welcome to the Community,
    Check out the third-party add-on chat logging applications in the Skype App store: http://shop.skype.com/apps/Chat-history-management/index.html
    Another option to consider may be a freeware product offered by NirSoft.

    No such place.
    Online you can try the Express Lane.
    Otherwise you have telephone support with Applecare or these (user-to-user) forums.
