Try using a better browser\* such as Firefox.

Also search this forum (search box above) using PDF and airport as keywords. There was a discussion on this earlier. \* I’d do it but it is within moments of me leaving for the weekend and I don’t want to take the time to look right now.  
\*

\*To them who will come back and say that’s it’s only a subjective opinion that Firefox is a better browser: I don’t care. It works for me and it isn’t that Microsoft browser.

What works for you doesn’t mean it’s better for others.

Could you elaborate on what you mean by “not having any luck”?

What, **precisely** happens when you attempt to save a file?

File not found error?

Server timeout?

File just disappears?

Etc.?

Are you positive you know what folder the file is being saved to?
