The tilde ~ is shorthand for the home directory, in your case, /Users/ 
winfried. So currently, you're telling BibTeX to look for a folder  
called "Users" inside your home directory.

Try either ~/Documents/Bibliography/Bibliography or  /Users/winfried/ 
Documents/Bibliography/Bibliography (without the tilde).

Good luck,
Gerrit.
