Where are Hotmail emails stored if you copied them from the server?

I downloaded all my emails off the server, or should I say copied and left a copy of them on the server. Now I can't find them on my computer. IT did say they were saved successfully, and all.
Because I knew that Microsoft would screw up one day, and they did when they forced everyone off "HOTMAIL". Now they themselves can't reverse the process, that would be too simple, for us normal users, and I honestly believe that they don't know how to do it either, so the make excuses.
But when they moved me from, "HOTMAIL" to "OUTLOOK", I lost all mu sub-folders and I want to look in my backups to see if I can fine them, but don't know where to start. I need the info in there for legal purposes.
I need those sub-folder emails/ Somebody please help me.
Thank You

My husband has retrieved emails from my exchange email account. I deleted them from the trash bin. How is he doing this?

OK, let's come back to the original issue; how are deleted messages retrievable?
First, is the account set up as an Exchange account or a POP account? I'll assume it's Exchange. If it were POP the answer is obvious.
If it's an Exchange account are you deleting the messages from the phone or from some other computer? If you are deleting them from another computer they will not be removed from the Trash folder on the phone until the phone next syncs AND the Trash folder is opened. But this will take time. You can force the Trash folder to sync in near real time by going into Settings/Mail,Contacts,Calendars, tap on the Exchange account, tap on Mail Folders to Push and check "Deleted Items". Note that doing this will result in increased data usage and reduced battery life.
If I haven't described the situation tell me what assumptions I made that are incorrect.

Where is the desktop picture stored if you set it from the finder?

I've read several discussions here asking where this is stored but none of them address the location when you use the Finder to set a desktop picture. I've looked in all Libary folders and Safari and can't find it. How can I locate it?

Where are Inbox emails stored in Apple Mail?

I accidentally erased all the emails in my inbox in Apple Mail. However, a week before I did this, I backed up my hard drive (cloned it w/ Super Duper) to an external hard drive (called BackUp). When I boot up in BackUp, I can find my older 'inbox' emails in Mail. They are intact on this second HD.
I have not been able to import them using the Mail import function - mostly because I cannot find the Inbox folder (see below). I tried booting up in Backup, and using this path I got down to the folder where I thought the emails were stored: Library/Mail/POP-(my em address)/Inbox/Messages. I then copied the Messages folder, mailed it to myself and booted up on the internal hard drive. After retrieving the Messages folder from my email (which I thought contained the Inbox messages) I swapped it for the Messages folder on the internal hard drive. This did not change a thing.
So where are the Inbox messages stored? Or, is there an easier way to import my inbox emails from the BackUp hard drive?
Of course, I can simply forward each message via email from the BackUp drive and retrieve them in the internal drive, but then I lose subjects and the sender's name at the top of the email.
I'm using OS 10.6.8 on an intel iMac.

Thanks for your reply. You suggested some other avenues for me to pursue - namely, treat the emails as files....
Since the BackUp hard drive is bootable, if I have my iMac running on its internal HD, I cannot drag anything from the BackUp HD to the internal hard drive. I tried this: - while on the internal HD, i clicked on the mounted icon for BackUp, went to applications, clicked on mail, and Mail opened - but the Inbox that I saw was the relatively empty inbox that is on the internal drive. True, I did get a second Mail icon on the Dock with its light illuminated, but I cannot open the Mail program with the BackUp Hard Drive files.
I did try booting up to BackUp, I located the files in the Inbox folder that correspond to the emails in the Inbox, copied them to a new email and sent the .emlx files to myself. Logged back onto the internal drive, opened the email to myself, dragged the attachments (all those .emlx files) to the Inbox messages folder, and closed everything and reopened Mail. None of the emails that I copied showed up in the inbox - yet if i go to the Inbox messages folder, find the appropriate file and click on it, up comes the email that I want to appear in Mail's Inbox.

Where are my emails stored

In Thunderbird, I want to archive all my old emails in a form that I can read them again if necessary by moving them to a NAS drive.
I know they are on my computer somewhere because I can read them even when my computer is disconnected from the internet, but where.

OK, thanks for the speedy response.
There is a lot of information for me go through, but it looks like the answer to my question is there.

Where is your iPhoto library? I can't find it

By default the Library is in your Pictures Folder. It's a Package - so it looks like a single file in the Finder.

Where are Smart Mailboxes stored?

I want to copy over my smart mail boxes from my old 12" PB to my new MBP but cannot find them when asked using "Import Mailboxes" under the File pulldown menu.
TIA
12.PB. (Rev A). & 1.83 GHz MBP Mac OS X (10.4.5)

My impression was that these "smart" mailboxes were virtual. That they presented messages that reside in other mailboxes and that meet some particular filtering criteria. They don't get copied to the smart mailbox, the smart mailbox entries just point at the message in the mailbox in which they reside.
Also, keep in mind that IMAP mail servers, such as that run by Apple for .Mac subscribers, keep their mail on the server. That way if you have multiple computers, say a desktop at home or in the office and a laptop for mobile use, both always see the same messages in the same mailboxes. In this case, you'll never find those messages on your local system 'cause they're not there.
Mailboxes associated with POP3 accounts (more typical for private ISPs, e.g.) are local files and / or directories. And you can always explicitly create a local mailbox. If you copy mail from a server-based IMAP mailbox to such a local mailbox, then the mail will reside on your Mac, of course.

They will only be where you put them. They do not magically appear in new places.
Have you copied them from your old computer to your new one?

I just put my serial number in to have someone call me about an issue, and it says my serial number is not valid. I copied it from the apple in the top corner. Any thoughts?

Apple Support is saying my serial number is invalid, and I copied from the desktop itself. Any suggestions as to why this would happen?

When you say you copied it from the desktop do you mean Apple Menu > About this Mac > More Info?
If your Mac is 5 years old or older it is considered Vintage or Obsolete and Apple no longer offers support. Instead of telling you it will often just say the serial number is invalid.
What model/year is your Mac? You can also try entering your serial number on this website: http://appleserialnumberinfo.com/Desktop/index.php see what it comes up with.

Where are Invitation Emails for Apple Calendar Stored?

Hi,
When you add an event in Apple Calendar (prev. iCal) and invite an attendee, an email with an invitation is sent. Where are these emails saved? Where can you find the template that is used to create these emails?

Hi Filip,
What happens with invites depends on whether the calendar is local or stored on calendar server or not. For local calendars (those under "On My Mac") the sent items will go into the outbox on Mail while the internat connection is broken. For server based calendars (iCloud, Exchange, Google calendar and other CalDAV calendars) the server is sent a signal via your internet connection and the email is made and sent from the server.
You are not going to be able to stop a server based calendar using the method you subscribe.
For local calendars you might want to look at my application iCal Reply Checker. It is shareware, but runs for 10 days before needing to be paid for.
Best wishes

Where are printer drivers stored in OS 10.8?

I am trying to set up a Epson Stylus Photo R3000 as a new printer on OS 10.8. The printer setup locates the printer and automatically selects Epson Stylus R3000 with the notation "The selected printer software is available from Apple. Click Add to download and add this printer." However, clicking on Add leads eventually to an error message: "Can't install the software for the EPSON Epson Stylus Photo R3000 because it is not currently available fromthe Software Update server." This result blocks me from setting up the printer.
I know the driver is part of the Epson driver software package that is installed with OS 10.8. I would like to select it manually. My question is where are printer drivers stored? How do I select a driver?
Thanks in advance!

While a bit of a stretch, you can download the entire Epson printer package from Apple and install it. This will include all drivers for all Epson devices as opposed to the one just for your system. The package is 1GB in size, but will include everything supported.
The package can be downloaded here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1398
This following knowledgebase article says your printer is definitely supported, so the driver should be in that package: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669#epson
