How to show the Logged Messages window in Xcode

In later versions of xcode, do shift + cmd + R.

Or go to View -> Debug Area -> Activate Console

When Xcode runs your project, the editor changes to show a little black button with the letters "GDB" in it. Click on that to see the Debugger which has the console in it.

Good luck!

Oh, and I would read Apple's documentation. It's not that bad.
