I am trying to use
defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles YES
in my terminal but when I do I get the following error:
-bash: defaults: command not found
Any ideas as to what may be causing this issue and how to resolve it?

2Try "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles YES" If that works, then you have an issue with your default path in the terminal shell. – Kent Jul 16 '13 at 2:23

2(I just realized that "default path" in the above comment can be confusing, or a particularly cunning pun, depending on your point of view. It was intended to be neither. A less-confusing statement would be: "If that works, then you have an issue with the path variable that is set in your terminal shell") – Kent Jul 16 '13 at 4:20

@Kent just take credit for the pun, and be done with it :) – MattDMo Jul 16 '13 at 19:05
