If you install the TiddlyFox firefox add-on, this should allow you to save.
I am using Firefox 18 and got the same message that you did. I installed TiddlyFox yesterday and now saving my TiddlyWiki works perfectly.

Hello, TW fellows! =)

I want to discuss a problem that I've got when my Firefox was automatically updated to version 17 or so, I think. After that any changes that I make in my TiddlyWiki, causes a warning window to appear with standard text about impossible saving:

It's not possible to save changes. Possible reasons include:
- your browser doesn't support saving (Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari and Opera all work if properly configured)
- the pathname to your TiddlyWiki file contains illegal characters
- the TiddlyWiki HTML file has been moved or renamed

The problem is that prior to upgrading, all was okay -- Firefox could save my TW file anytime; pathname of TW file allowed to save the file before; I didn't move the TW file anywhere. =)

Please, give me advice where to search for solution? Thanks in advance.

P.S. I have read a comment about changing prefs.js file contents to get the possibility to save -- it's not my case, there's "granted" in corresponding place.
