Can't Find Replays (Mac)

So I'm a Mac user trying to play Starcraft 2 ):

Post 1.1, I decided to delete all of my previous replays since they'd have to be run on the older version and SC2 would just bug out and the experience wouldn't be very enjoyable. Since deleting all of my old replays, I can't seem to find the folder in which the replays used to belong. I've saved my replays that I've played post 1.1, and searches in Finder don't yield any results. I'm pretty much a tech noob, so sorry if I sound silly. ):

Does anyone know how I can find these replays on my computer? I can find the ones I've played in the Replay tab, but I can't move any of the replays that I've downloaded into the Multiplayer folder since it doesn't seem to exist. =\

=\ I don't even have a replay folder!! Where does this stuff get saved to ): I really want to watch Plexa's Mothership PvP replays, but I can't even locate mine. How can they exist on my computer without Finder being able to find them?

You could try looking in the application support folder. Because apparently that's where Blizzard decided to move all SCII data files and settings in 1.1.
The ruminations are mine, let the world be yours.

I don't know. You can try searching the .sc2replay extension in Finder to see if the file shows up on your hard drive anywhere. If they're not in the Multiplayer folder, you can drag them in there or wherever those other reps are. Sorry, if I don't seem much help.

here you go:

/users/~your user name~/Library/Application Support/Blizzard/Starcraft II/Accounts/~numbers~

lol, I don't know much about system structure under OSX but i think the entire library section isn't indexed so that's why you couldn't find the .sc2replay files.
Hope that helps!

i understand that this thread is old, but i see no reason in starting a new thread. The information given in this thread has yet to help me. When I follow the directories no matter where i end up i can't get to the "sc2 accounts" folder. I can get to the sc2 folder but all thats in it is two folders titled Maps and Versions.

If anyone could assist me this would be much appreciated.

Open finder, click on Go that is in the bar at the top of your screen, select Go to Folder... and enter this:
~/Library/Application Support/Blizzard/StarCraft II/Accounts/
There should be a folder with a bunch of random numbers, open it up,then open another folder with random numbers, open the folder called Replays, and voila that is your saved replays folder.

There isn't a blizzard folder in the application support folder. =\

Edit. If I right click and select show whilst in game on the replay it brings up the replay folder. So i guess I can just do that.

Make sure you're going to the library from YOUR account, not your HD.

Btw, what OSX do you have? Lion hides library for some odd reason.

This is a very old thread but I thought I would do a update. I'm using OS X Mavericks 10.9.1 with the SC2 2.1 update and MagicTurtle's location for the replays works. There seems to be an invisible Library folder that you cannot access normally without going to it directly as stated above but here it is again.

Open finder, click on Go that is in the bar at the top of your screen, select Go to Folder... and enter this:
~/Library/Application Support/Blizzard/StarCraft II/Accounts/

There should be a folder with a bunch of random numbers, open it up,then open another folder with random numbers, open the folder called Replays, and voila that is your saved replays folder.

Even easier: With Finder in focus, in the top menu bar go View->Show View Options (or just hit CMD-J with Finder in focus) and in the 5th section of the options that pops up you will find a option to permanently unhide the Library folder so you can just go to it normally like any other folder. They added that with Mavericks. You used to have to use a Terminal command to unhide it. They didn't want people going in and messing stuff up so they hid it and left the option for power users if they wanted it always visible.
