Hi,

If your are on Mac OSX Lion, Go in "Finder Menu", select preferences, then click on cases of Hard 
disk, external disks, cd, dvds, etc.

After that you'll see the icons of the hard disk on your desktop, open it:

1. You'll find the library folder (for all user);

2. You'll find a Users folder, open it, you'll see your user name, open this folder and you'll find 
another Library folder, only for you

Sorry for my bad english, i'm french and tired....:(

Good luck

Denis

Thank you, Ken!!  Wildly helpful--I now feel much better having discovered that I'm not seeing it 
because it's not here, not because I'm blind.  :)  I actually do not have a silver drive icon on 
my desktop.  There was nothing on my desktop when I set it up.  Now what?  Where else can I find 
it?

Thanks for the help, Ken... but I still got nothing.  :(

Using the Finder, I found "System Preferences" and "System Information," but no folder
just called "System," and nothing with my computer's name on it. Also no Library folder.

Am I completely Mac illiterate??

No worse than I was when I bought mine.  I'd spent 25 years using computer interfaces that are 
not like the Mac, and I've had, and still have after 2 years, problems finding things on the 
Mac.  At this time, that's my fault, not Apple's.  But, I'll never go back.   :-)

I've taken some screenshots to help with this message, at least hopefully help.   :-)

I took a screenshot of a part of my desktop  This shows you the disk drives recognized by my 
Mac.  Consider these drives to be analogous to what you would see if you opened My Computer, and 
the Hard Disk area of the display, assuming you are using the thumbnails display in the My 
Computer window.  (2nd screenshot in the above link).

My internal hard drive has been partitioned into 3 drives, represented by 3 silver drive icons 
labeled System, Data, and testing.  The other 4 drives are external drives, and have no bearing 
on the discussion.  I suspect you will have just one silver drive, and it may or may not be 
named system.

That one lone drive is the one you want.  Double click on it.  A finder window should open, and 
(hopefully) you'll see a file list similar to the third screenshot.

If Lion is the same as Snow Leopard, there will be a Users folder.  This is the folder that I'm 
referring to in step 2 of my previous post.

Does this help you follow my steps?
