More work has made it clear I cannot save ANYTHING on my new drive. For some reason the permissions are preventing me from saving to the desktop, etc. This is (probably) responsible for the error message "Cannot create file". How (where) do I change my permissions so that I can actually use my new drive? Thanks in advance.

I recently (today) had my hard drive replaced and (most of) the old data was transferred over to it.
Unfortunately, I now cannot download files using Safari (which is now the only browser on my machine). When trying to download a new file, it will begin the download, carry on for varying lengths of time (creating anywhere betwen 6 KB and 40 KB's worth of the file) and then stop. The Download manager then displays the progress of the download, followed by the message "Cannot create file".
From advice on other threads, I've already emptied my cache, deleted my cookies and reset Safari. I've also changed the target for "Save Downloaded Files" within my the Preferences. Finally, I repaired the disk permissions within the disk utility. Nothing has worked so far.
I am the only user established on the system, so I don't think it should be a question of a mistaken target, etc. Any suggestions on what my problem might be?
