When all else fails, try Internet Explorer (Version 7). I have had the same problem( with saving tiddlers) as everyone else! I have two observations to make.
First, my TW 2.1.3 tiddlers stopped working (using SaveChanges) when I upgraded to FF17. However, they still save OK using FF9, FF11 and IE7. Second, I downloaded TiddlyFox for use with FF17. However, I was so disappointed: for me it failed to work when I tried to import my 2.1.3 TWs into a freshly downloaded version (2.6.6) of empty.html. Google Chrome also failed to work. However when I opened empty.html with IE7, all my 2.1.3 tiddlers imported beautifully cleanly! So now I have a lovely protocol for upgrading my tiddlers from 2.1.3 to 2.6.7!!! Is this science, luck or black magic?
