dwhelper says that it has downloaded to this folder, which I cannot find anywhere!
When I have searched this topic online I find many people complaining about this folder
appearing and asking how to get rid of it, my question is the opposite - I want to find this folder
since the files I've downloaded with dwhelper are supposedly in it. I have managed to find a folder
called Users but it does not have any apple folder let alone any sub-folder of apple...

Say your user name is "ariel". Then the default download directory on a Mac is "/Users/ariel/dwhelper".

There are several ways to change the default directory if you want your videos to go somewhere else.

One thing you can do: after your downloaded a video, reopen the VDH main panel, move the mouse over the downloaded video entry, a "..." sign appears on the right click on it, then pick "Open container folder". This should open a finder window on the correct directory.
