Easyfind. My favorite app to find hidden folders or files on the mac.  Do a quick search in the app and you'll find it in no time. Note: There's a  "reveal in finder" button. It'll pop up the folder that contains whatever file you're looking at.

Reveal in Finder is unable for usage, don't know why... and of course I still didn't find the rws files.

Don't include *   
Just search .rws 
OR search part of the title of your saved game. could try autosave-1

If you see the file that you're searching for, right click on it and go to reveal in finder.

But...but...  I thought Macs were "superior"; doesn't it "just work" ;D ?

Sorry, sorry, couldn't resist.
Thanks, belgord!

Mods I would recommend:
Mending, Fertile Fields, Smokeleaf Industries and the Giddy Up series.

The Mod you must have:

That was within my first tries. Clicking RimWorld only loads the game itself, not a folder.

You still can't find it? Must be using wrong keywords if you can't find it in easy find.

Others have posted here:
/Users/your user name/Library/Application Support/RimWorld
(There should be a folder called saves in Rimworlds folder)

You came close in one of your screenshots when you searched for it for manually.  You went under "Shared" folder instead of going to your user folder. in your case it's "apple". Has the home icon next to it.
/Users/apple/Library/Application Support/RimWorld/Saves

I've made a second attempt.

I just had to type the search key word without the asterisk.

My first search was unsuccessful and now I know, because the Library folder was hidden...don't know why...

Because Apple sez so.  You WILL bow down before the dead Savior, that shall live again!

ALL HAIL JOBS!
