Where is my Library folder?

I know there is a way to display the Library folder in my home folder, but I can't find it. Can anyone help please?

in Finder, hold down the Option key while clicking on the Go menu and your users Library will appear...

    Users are not qualified to use the library anyway.
    When it's following the Windblows lead, there should also be an option to revert this, to be able to switch the hidden files back to visible. Haven't been able to find that option yet.
    Furthermore, I despise your remark about users not being qualified. When I buy something I have all rights using any and all part of it. Whether that's a sensible choice for each and every user is a whole other question, but to treat all users as one dumb-*** group is not good (IMHO).

  • Where is the library folder in Lion?

    where is the library folder in Lion?

    I recommend all frustrated users to make LIBRARY permanently visible by following Tom Reed's instruction, namely, going into Terminal and typing the following command: chflags nohidden ~/Library   Otherwise, next time you need to access Library, if you are like me you will have forgotten the "Option-Go" trick
    You´ll ask next: "but how do I access Terminal?"  If you search for "Terminal" in the Finder, it shows up.  Make sure the Search is of "This Mac"  and not "All my Files".  Once you see it, click on it and the terminal window opens up. The background inside the window is white and not black as sometimes pictured.

    The names have changed. Try:

    Does that let you do what you want?

  • Where is the library folder????

    Not sure why this is so difficult to locate, but I've spent 10 minutes trying already...
    Thanks for any help.

    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.  Also works with Mavericks and Yosemite.
    For  Mavericks and Yosemite  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring up this window:

  • Where is my Library folder in Lion?

    When I open a finder window, and click on a user, I cannot find my Library folder.
    Any help would be appreciated,

    Once you've opened that Library folder, if you want to have it available in the Finder window Sidebar, note the small representation of a folder that sits just in front of the word Library in the title area of the window. Drag that small icon into the Favorites area of the Sidebar, and it should then be available anytime.

  • Where is the Library folder on HD

    I no longer can access the Library folder. It used to be on my HD. When I create a folder and try to name it as Library folder it says that the name already exist. So... its like invisible.
    Please help... this is bizarre.
    thanks.

    I found the solution on Google. For some strange reason my Library folder that is outside the user, became invisible. I found a program xRay, which finds it and makes the folder visible again. The program is only $1.99. The Apple support team suggested reinstall the operating system and reinstall all my software.
    Well after debating for an hour or two I have chosen the the solution #1, the xRay.

  • My Library folder is missing-where did it go?

    My mail app has stopped working. It was suggested in another thread that I go to the mail folder in the Library folder and delete
    some items from the V2 file or folder. Problem is, I have no Library folder. Not there. Missing. Utterly confused. Searched all over the computer,
    and stil MIA. How does this happen. My HD was replaced earlier this week by Apple. Old one crashed and burned. Everything worked fine until last night.
    The mail won't open. Eberything else on computer works fine (so far). When I made a new folder and named it Library, box said name already in use. So this tells me it's hiding. How do I get it back. Any suggestions?

  • Where is the mail folder use/library in MacOS X 10.7.5 in a Mac Air?

    I would like to know how to find the folder wher the mail application is storing the mails in the MacOS X 10.7.5
    I know is somewhere in mail/ library, but I am unable to find it. Perhaps is hiden and I don't know how to locate it.
    Thank you very much.

    Actually it's in youruser/Library/Mail. The user's Library folder is hidden by default in 10.7 and later, but if you go to Finder, hold down the Option key, and select the Go menu, the Library folder will be shown in the dropdown list and you can open it from there.
    Regards.

  • Where is the user library folder

    Where did Apple put the users' "Library" folders in Lion?! If they no longer exist, where should I go to find the user's "Application Support" folder (which I always used to find in the user's "Library"). Am I missing something? Am I blind? I never used to have this trouble. I need to change the default file for a program and that file resides in the "Application Support" folder within the user's "Library" folder (at least, it always used to reside there!)
    I can't seem to find anything about this in the help files that come with my computer.

    To Find Library folder
    In Finder...
    Press and hold Option key
    Click Go on the menu bar
    Choose Library
