Hi All,
I am trying to delete some old and unused user-defined swatches. I see in other answers to go to " Macintosh HD >> Users >> (YOURUSERNAME) >> Library >> Application Support >> Adobe >> Adobe Illustrator [version number] >> en_US (or other language designation) > Swatches"
But when I navigate to my Adobe folder...I don't see Adobe Illustrator in there anywhere (see screenshot). Anyone have any ideas where it could be or am I missing something obvious?
I also searched for "Swatches" on my entire HD and none of the folders that came up contain my user-defined swatches (though I did find all of the default swatch libraries).
I was able to find it! I couldn't see the Library in the same way folks suggested, so I went to Show View Options and selected Show Library in Finder. Then I was able to navigate where I needed to be and delete my swatch libraries.
This was it! Thank you, Mike!

I believe I am in my user folder already—you can see the end of Library in my screenshot above.

If Illustrator is installed on that computer, then there must be Adobe Illustrator folders in there.

I'm having the same issue of not being able to see Illustrator in the Library! Could you please walk through the steps you took to find it? THANK YOU!!
