You are not supplying a logical libname.

libname mylib "/folders/myshortcuts/myfolders/sas data/prg1";

Post your exact code and log.
We can only comment on what we see here.

Also, this path, with myshortcuts,

/folders/myshortcuts/myfolders/

Usually means you've set up the myfolders incorrectly according to the installation instructions OR you've explicitly created another library with the exact same name as recommended in the set up guide. If it's the latter, ignore this comment entirely 🙂
