Want a super-quick way to get your hands on an image file that has been placed into your InDesign layout? Just right-click on the image (with either selection tool), and choose Graphics > Reveal in Finder/Explorer. This will open the enclosing folder and select the image.
Unfortunately, you can only use this feature with one image at a time (you can’t select a bunch of images and reveal them all at once). However, you can reveal images that are unselectable because they’re locked, hidden, or not on the current spread, by right-clicking on them in the Links panel.
