I'm using instruments for allocations, but want to see my NSLog messages. In another post they mentioned to look inside /Applications/Utilities/Console for the messages. I can't seem to spot any of them. After you open the Console App, where would you look?

NSLog() output on the simulator does indeed show up in the Console Mac OS X application. Go to All Messages and then filter based on your app name to get rid of the fluff, and run again. You'll see it in your output if the NSLog code is actually being hit during the execution of your program.
NSLog outputs messages to the Apple System Log facility or to the Console app (usually prefixed with the time and the process id).
You can view the console of the device using Xcode Organizer. 
In Xcode 6, the "Devices" tab was removed from the Organizer into it's own window. To view the console log, you now have to click the tiny little triangle in the lower left-hand area of the device information.

Alternative to Black Frogs answer, you can also use the integrated console from your mac directly without Xcode. All output is forwarded there. Just do a spotlight search (CMD + Space) and type in console.
