Hide file or folder on Apple Mac, Show hidden file or folder on Mac

Hi All


Firstly I try to find hidden a file/folder like Window. But not able to find it.

Then it is done my commands in terminal

Open terminal from Application/Utilities

Command for hide a file/folder

setfile -a V FILENAME

Command for unhide a file/folder

setfile -a v FILENAME

Command for show all files hidden/unhidden

defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE
killall Finder

Command for show only unhidden files

defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles FALSE
killall Finder

There is software for managing private files named HIDE FOLDER. You can download free version from http://altomac.com/
