OS X cp command in Terminal – No such file or directory

Summary of solution:

directory is neither an existing file nor directory. As it turns out, the real name is directory.1 as revealed by ls -la $HOME/Desktop/.

The complete working command is

cp -R $HOME/directory.1/file.bundle /library/application\ support/directory/

with the -R parameter for recursive copy (compulsory for copying directories).
