Are the spaces real? Is that file or directory?
If spaces are not the problem than
cp --help
tells
Usage: cp [OPTION]... [-T] SOURCE DEST
or: cp [OPTION]... SOURCE... DIRECTORY
or: cp [OPTION]... -t DIRECTORY SOURCE...
Copy SOURCE to DEST, or multiple SOURCE(s) to DIRECTORY.
So your command tells cp to use:
/home/my_directory/file_directory/file.icc/
as directory where you should copy:
/usr/share/color/icc/Adobe_ICC_Profiles/RGB_Profiles/
Simple
cd /home/my_directory/file_directory/
cp file.icc /usr/share/color/icc/Adobe_ICC_Profiles/RGB_Profiles/
will do what you want, or if you want your way:
cp -t /usr/share/color/icc/Adobe_ICC_Profiles/RGB_Profiles/ "/home/my
directory/file directory/file.icc"
should do it.
