Try

$ pg_dump dbname > "file name"

and make sure you have write access to the current directory.

1. you will probably have to double quote the filename with the 
space character
$ pg_dump dbname > "file name"

2. do you have write permissions to the destination directory?
this should work as it forces the file to the top level of the currently 
logged in user.

$ pg_dump dbname > ~/"file name"
