First, go to ‘Finder,’ which is located at the bottom of your screen.
In the ‘Recents’ folder, you’ll see a toolbar at the top of the screen. Click on ‘Help.’
In the ‘Help’ menu, search for ‘Library.’ It should be the first result. Click on it. (Alternatively, instead of using ‘Help,’ you can go to ‘Go,’ press the ‘Option’ key on your keyboard, and choose ‘Library’).
This will take you to a page with all your ‘hidden’ folders. Look for ‘Application Support’ and open that folder.
Double click on ‘Application Support,’ which will take you to all your application folders. Here, find the ‘Minecraft’ folder.
Once you’re in the ‘Minecraft’ folder, locate the ‘Logs’ folder. You might need to scroll to find it.
In the ‘Logs’ folder, you’ll find all your chatlogs. To find logs from a specific date, use the search bar on the right. The log from your most recent Minecraft session is named ‘latest.log.’
To unzip or load files, simply double-click on them.
If you need to find specific messages in chatlogs with many messages, look in the top right corner. You’ll see a search bar—just enter the time of the message or the message text.
