Ashadelo Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 On a Mac. I am in the process of transferring all my files over. But I cannot seem to find my purchased books. I found all the user created notes and stuff. But the books I am not sure where they are located. I really don't want to re-download all of them as it would take me days (the connection is horrible in China). Any help would be a huge blessing. Thanks.

Paul Meiklejohn Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 (edited) If you have a mac it's usually, Users /~ Home Folder [Name] / Library / Application Support / Accordance If you move them manually, you usually have to run the the main installer / program again so that it can locate the files, otherwise you would need to locate and open each module manually.

Lester P. Bagley Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 If you do NOT find your books in the "Users" folders, you may find that they are stored at: Macintosh HD [or whatever your hard drive is named]/Library/Application Support/Accordance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashadelo Posted April 7, 2017 Author Share Posted April 7, 2017 Ok, I found two different folders both in different locations and both titled, "Accordance Files" but these keep files like notes, created sessions, etc. But they do not contain the books. I still have not found the books in ether location you two mentioned. Actually in those two locations were those two folders. But they do not contain the books.

Paul Meiklejohn Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 You should be looking for a folder with Accordance / Modules / Tools... do either of the two suggestions have a module / tools folder? Its possible that they are marked as hidden... if you know how to unhide files, you may discover they are actually in those folders. Alternatively I there is a free app in the app store called 'Easyfind'. That will search for everything; folders, files, hidden files. etc. I've ran different searches for 'accordance', 'tools', 'modules', 'NKJV', 'Easton' etc and it gave me the exact location for them all. Whereas the apple finder tends not to search for library, hidden files or system files. Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lester P. Bagley Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 In that "modules" folder you may also find folders for Texts, Tools and several folders with names beginning with "Shared..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashadelo Posted April 8, 2017 Author Share Posted April 8, 2017 Ok, i will try again. So far I have had no progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Gilbert Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Hi Ashadelo, Can you see Home > Library > Application Support > Accordance > Modules > Texts , Tools, etc.? Library is a faded color on my computer, so it was probably hidden by default. I followed the instructions at http://ianlunn.co.uk/articles/quickly-showhide-hidden-files-mac-os-x-mavericks/to unhide it.

Daniel Francis Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 you make the library appear by going to the GO menu in finder and holding down the option key the Library folder will become visible between HOME and COMPUTER, but only as long as the option key is held down. -dan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Gilbert Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Hi Dan, As an aside, your suggestion doesn't work for my Logitech keyboard. Does it require an Apple Keyboard? Or, is it because I unhid my hidden folders permanently? Regards, Michel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Meiklejohn Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 From El-Capitan onwards... if you open the 'finder' and then cmd-J and click the 'show library folder' it will always show without having to use the keyboard steps described above.

Michel Gilbert Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Hi Paul, I'm asking this as a fairly new Mac user. I tried your suggestion and get this: I don't see the “show library folder.” Any ideas/comments? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabian Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 (edited) Hallo Michel Öffne "Finder -> Press the alt key -> klick on Go To -> then you see Library -> click on it -> Application Support -> Accordance" Grüsse Fabian Edited April 8, 2017 by Fabian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Gilbert Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Hi Fabian, If I open Finder, and press Alt, I don't see any Go to, except at the top menu, Go > Go to Folder. If I search for Library, I get this, without Accordance: Is this a different library than Home > Library > Application Support? If I'm doing something wrong, you might have to send me a screenshot. It's all fairly new to me. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabian Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Michel Yes the Go To on the top. If you click on it and press alt you have to see the Library. (Sorry it's not possible to send you a pic, because I have to press alt and the shortcut key for the pics at the same time.) Strange it looks like you are on the right Folder. By me also the AppStore and CrashReporter is in, but where ist your Accordance Folder? Mmh but you have also no Apple folder which I have in. So go to the Finder then on top "Go To" with pressed alt key. If you press "alt" here the Library entry comes. Greetings Fabian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Meiklejohn Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 (edited) Michel, sorry I should have been clearer. 1. Open finder 2. Make sure you click and highlight your home folder (so that the home folder is showing) 3. cmd-j (Alternatively - go to view / show view options) 4. click show library Step 2 is important or step 4 won't work. Additional tip: you can now drag the library folder onto the sidebar so that you will always have a shortcut. Please let me know how you get on...

Michel Gilbert Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Hi, Thank you Dan, Paul and Fabian. Yes, I was missing Step 2. Hopefully this will help Ashadelo find his Modules. Regards, Michel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Gilbert Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 . . . it would take me days (the connection is horrible in China). Hi Ashadelo, I'm wondering, is that why we only hear from you once in a while on these Forums? It takes a week to load a Forum page?

Ashadelo Posted April 9, 2017 Author Share Posted April 9, 2017 Praise the LORD, Praise the LORD! I finally got everything found and transferred over. It took a long time but I got everything up and running again. I also want to say thank you to all of you who helped me, especially in recommending "easy find". 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
