I downloaded the computational toolbox trial version of R2016 on Mac OS X Yosemite. I am trying to define file path, but MATLAB gives error message

I am using an MATLAB interface, which requires to paste the data file path into the interface,
I am trying to paste the path of the data file as /Users/etkinozen/Documents/BEAR/Ibrahim Oil/toolbox 3.0
When i run the code, the error message appears:
Error using copyfile cp: /Users/etkinozen/Documents/BEAR/Ibrahim Oil/toolbox 3.0/files\results.xlsx: No such file or directory
The interface is working very well in my office computer, which uses Microsoft.
Am i defining the path wrong or, it is related with trial version?

This sounds like there is a problem with how the full file name is constructed in the toolbox you are using. It looks like the file path and file name are connected with a backslash (\), which will work fine on PC, but not on Mac. The toolbox author will need to fix this (e.g. using the fullfile function).
