[QUOTE="Aptmunich, post: 531744, member: 3850"] You're missing the space: You need to type "cd Application\ Support" to get to the folder "Application Support". The terminal doesn't support spaces, unless you escape them as technologist pointed out. An easier way of doing things is to use the autocomplete feature: Type "cd Ap" and then press the tab key. The Terminal will look at the list of folders and try to guess which one you're going to type. As long as there aren't any other folders that start with the letters "Ap", it will autocomplete the folder name "Application\ Support" for you. [/QUOTE]
