problems in TW+Opera once when I had a big tiddler (tests showed that it

on saving, not being unable to save. Anyway, if I understood you correctly,
you have now problems with all your TWs, so it shouldn't be the problem
caused by a certain wiki/its content.
Speaking of which: you are using TiddlySaver for saving, right?

Also, have you tried TiddlyDesktop?
As I'm not familiar with OS X and can't test anything, I suggest you to try
[1] and [2] first, but also write here your whole "assembly":
OS X version
Java version
browser version
TW version
TiddlySaver.. "version".. well, attach it here at least
list of modified shadow tiddlers
list of tiddlers tagged systemConfig
(or, to reduce the complexity, try to save in an empty TW of latest version
and probably latest Java and latest TiddlySaver)
regardless of whether you succeed with [1] or [2], this info will be useful
for a more consistent solution/fix for other users (may be it deserves
creating a ticket at GitHub [3]).
Best regards,
Yakov.
