I am trying to find a hidden file that I know the name, but no the location of.
The name is "message", and I have tried sudo locate *message*, but I have not found it. I have too much output, plus I do not think locate is showing the hidden files. Any ideas?

Try this:
sudo find / -name ".message"I'm assuming the locate command gave you too much info to go through, so this should be a bit more succinct, where it only matches the filename, not the path.
