can anyone help?

you have to "cd" into the directory where you stored the file first or write the full path in the command.

three examples when you copied the file in the documents directory via usb:

relative:
(when you open up xterm you're in /home/user/)
Code:

chmod +x MyDocs/.documents/move-opt.sh
absolute:
Code:

chmod +x /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/move-opt.sh
or first cd into the right directory:
Code:

cd MyDocs/.documents
chmod +x move-opt.sh

maybe you should learn how to get along with the terminal first before you do something big like moving system files around and symlinking them automatically....

unplug the usb first. ^^
and the command line is case sensitive.
