Hello, my problem is pretty much exactly as this post: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1019513 The main differences are my system being Windows 7 32-bit, & my Firefox being version 34. To summarize, I'd be saving files just fine until I notice that after an undetermined period, anything I try to save gives the result "Failed". Installing Firefox 31 has fixed the problem for now.

There was a secondary problem that may be related: saving a file that was already loaded typically redownloaded the file, as opposed to saving it from the downloaded cache. Again, this was fixed after installing FF31.

I'd just like to amend that I tried installing FF33 & that is working just fine as well.
