I tried saving a Plist from my project and using NSLog printed out the path of the file.
I was using the iOS Simulator 4.2.
But I can’t find it anywhere on my Mac.

/Users/Wayne/Library/Application Support/iPhone
Simulator/4.2/Applications/0C42C550-530A-4F2C-A422-6D948F2166A3/Documents/Message.plist

Any ideas where it could be?

    The path your plist is being stored is

    /Users/Wayne/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/4.2/Applications/0C42C550-530A-4F2C-A422-6D948F2166A3/Documents/Message.plist

    On OS X 10.7 Lion this path is hidden by default. There are several ways you can access this path.

    1) Go to terminal and type 

    open "/Users/Wayne/Library/Application\ Support/iPhone\ Simulator/"

    This will open the Finder at the iPhone simulator main directory.

    2) In Finder click the “Go” menu and then hold the “option” (sometimes called “alt”) key. The option to go to your User library will appear. Then you can navigate to the iPhone Simulator Directory.

    3) If all of this seems a bit much and you would rather your ~/Library folder was visible all the time then you can go into terminal and unhide it using the following command

    chflags nohidden ~/Library
