[QUOTE="cradom, post: 1619008, member: 305283"] You have a double escape where you only need one. Try: defaults write com.apple.screencapture location ~/Users/tommy/'Google Drive'\Sync\iMac\'iMac Screenshots' EDIT: Sorry, meant an escape inside an escape and in the wrong place. That first \ closed the escape and bash didn't know what to do with the second space in iMac Screenshots. [/QUOTE]
