How to get a color profile stored in a user library from within Photoshop CS5

Hi!

I have a specific color profile that I want to load int PS CS5 color settings. I've placed it into my user library/application support/adobe/color/settings folder and all was good. Now i'm in PS and can't find the user library to load the settings. (Interestingly enough, I have no problem getting into the system library. Go figure) Any ideas?

Apple has hidden ~/Library starting with Lion. You can put Adobe Color Settings files, *.csf, into /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Color/Settings instead of the user folder; and ICC profiles belong in /Library/ColorSync/Profiles.

Or you can unhide ~/Library with this command in Terminal:

sudo chflags nohidden ~/Library/
