I need to set nox emulator as my default emulator, but I need to set first adb connection, but I don't know where I can find the directory of nox app player.

Fortunately, as a Mac user, you don't have to worry too much about the directory of the Nox app player, because you don't have to use the executable nox_adb.exe, as do Windows users. Instead, you can, with a slight change, follow the steps in the Nox connection guide, but just look out, as a Mac user, for step 6, (according to vandebergz) :

  1. Download & install Nox.

  2. Start a project in Android Studio.

  3. Start Nox App Player, and in Nox go to Nox system settings and turn root mode to on, then save changes and restart Nox.

  4. In Nox, go to Android settings and scroll down to About Tablet. Keep clicking on Build number until it shows that, "You are now a developer". In Android settings the Developer options will now be visible.

  5. In Developer options, tick USB debugging.

  6. (Mac only) Depending on whether or not adb and other tools are in your PATH (see below), type
    adb connect 127.0.0.1:62001
    from a suitable location. (This will connect localhost through port 62001 to the Android Debug Bridge.)

  7. Android Studio should now detect Nox Player as a connectable device (although it may not appear named as Nox).

Please bear in mind that for this to work, if you're using Android Studio with default installation settings, you should either do step 6 from the directory of adb , which is usually ~/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools ; or else you can do this from any location if you have adb and the other platform tools on your PATH. To add them to your PATH, if not done already, you'll need to open your hidden ~/.bash_profile file and add the lines: 

export PATH=~/Library/Android/sdk/tools:$PATH
export PATH=~/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools:$PATH

as described here.

Worked ok for me. :)
