Hello,

I think I had a similar error on Linux with some fonts. The issue seems to be 
that xelatex accesses some fonts by file name and others by the "identifier" 
that is in the font file (this may have changed in the meantime - I had this 
error 6 months ago). In my case, I checked with 'fc-list' what the ID of the 
font was and used that in my tex source. I guess another option is to copy the 
font to the working directory, rename without spaces, and then try to use it.

Cheers,
Wilfred
