You can access macOS Library from the Finder. To visualize the Library, open a Finder window and click on the Go menu while pressing the Option key, as otherwise the Library is hidden from you.

After nearly 40 years of using Microsoft OS’s as well as a few years of playing 
with various flavors of Linux, I recently purchased a MacBook. Don’t ask why; 
it’s a painful story.

I am running macOS Sonoma 14.7.2.

I installed LO 24.8 from the LibreOffice website and not from the Apple Store.

I am now trying to use Finder (Mac’s file explorer) to find my user profile and 
templates as I would like to copy some of my custom templates from my Windows 
computer over to the MacBook.

According to LO’s preferences (options) under “paths,” my templates are stored 
in:

Users/(UserName)/Library/Application Support/LibreOffice/4/user/template

However, when I go into Users/(UserName)/ there is no subfolder called 
“Library.”

I can get to a folder called “Library/Application Support” from the main 
directory of “MacIntosh HD” but there is no subfolder called “LibreOffice” in 
“Library/Application Support”

I assume things must be hidden in Finder, but I can see no setting in Finder to 
“show hidden files” as I would see in either Windows or Linux.

Could any of you other Mac users give a complete Mac NOOB some guidance as to 
how to find my user profile in Finder?

Thanks

Virgil
