Hi there!
Is there a way to transfer or copy all my style sets in one batch to my new computer? I have my desktop set up with all the sets I need, and now want my new laptop to have them too. I remember there used to be something to back up styles, but I can't remember it or find it back.
Thanks in advance!

Have you looked in ~/Library/Application Support/Mellel ?

No, because I had no recollection that is where I had to start
Thank you very much, will check it out!
Oh just back from checking and that folder is not there.
I'm on Yosemite, iMac. (It has been a long time since I had to do anything in the Library folder)
And hopefully final edit: aha: Yosemite hides the USER library folder, so I was poking around in the one that sits immediately under the HD, not in my homefolder. Right. Found it, after making my library folder visible. Thanks, problem solved.

In Yosemite, click Go on the main [Finder] menu. Hold down the alt key and "Library" appears.

oooh that is a good shortcut. Thank you! (I used to be more savvy about finding all these little tricks, but my paying job does not leave me much time for fiddling around anymore.)

Or you could use the 'Go' command in the Finder: Cmd+Shift+G, then type in the name of the directory you want (~/Library). Or if you have a Terminal window open, just type `open ~/Library` or whichever folder you want the Finder to open.

Good to know! Thanks, Robert. Can't remember the last time I went into the terminal, but I know where the Go command is!
