Default LM keeps on giving me this message and then quits

I have a macbook running leopard. My LM version is 4.16.

I keep on getting this message and I don't know what to do.

"Your save folder is not valid. It may have been deleted, you may not have permissions to write to it, or there may be another problem. Please choose a different folder."

After I choose a folder, it stays up for about 2-4 secs and then quits.

1. Delete your LW preferences folder: Deleting LW Preferences folder in OSX

2. Check the location you were trying to save to, find the parent folder & select, Command i, to get information, check who has ownership over the folder. Check to be sure it's yours. If it belongs to the system then you will get permission errors.

* Places not to have your download folder are: System folder, Library folder, Applications folder, LW Program folder or the surrounding Applications folder, other user accounts or main OSX folder directory.

Choose either your User account folder or a different drive but again, check permissions of that folder to be sure you have both Read & Write permissions for your user account.
