Make sure that the spelling of the physical path to the library is correct, especially with regards to uppercase/lowercase. When SAS tells you something is not there, then it is not there, period.
Both OSX (Mac) and Linux (the operating system of University Edition) are case sensitive.

I hate to repeat myself:
"PS please post logs as text, using the {i} button."
First, get rid of that stupid blank in the directory name; it will only cause trouble again and again.
Second, make sure that a file
auto.sas7bdat
exists in the directory. Spelling must be all lowercase, no blanks or other special characters.

According to what I see in the screenshot, your libname should be
libname chapter2 "/folders/myfolders/Lecture_ Resources/Chapter2";
as the blank seems to still be there in the physical directory name.

Computers do EXACTLY what you tell them to do.
From your photograph of SAS's tree view of your files it looks like there is some character (a space?) between the underscore and the R in your directory names.
But in the code you posted there is nothing between those two characters.
"/folders/myfolders/Lecture_Resources"
Also in your photograph is looks like auto.sas7bdat is under the Chapter2 subfolder and not in the parent directory that you attempted to point the libname to.
