Trying to change the default screenshot directory to a specific folder in my google drive, but when I try the following command
defaults write com.apple.screencapture location ‘~/Users/tommy\Google Drive\Sync\iMac\iMac Screenshots’
I get this error
2014-11-10 21:49:43.644 defaults[2184:76708] Unexpected argument DriveSynciMaciMac; leaving defaults unchanged.
and I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

In addition the quotes and slashes, it looks like you are trying to give an absolute path, so remove the tilde:
Don't forget to run
killall SystemUIServer
or logout afterwards
