XFCE4 not saving files

I orginally posted this in my thread in the Multimedia section but im reposting here. Every time I try to save a file to /home/travis say with gphpedit or gedit it gives me this error (NOTE: I run XFCE4)

"Unable to save 'test'.

This may be due to incorrect permissions or being out of space on the drive.

(test being the filename). The user name is "travis". I have tried:

chown -R travis:users /home/travis
and
chmod -R 777 /home/travis

Also, if I try to open a file to read (IE in gphpedit it says file now found when it IS there, or in redit says filename is invalid yet ive i open it in xterm or nano it works). I cannto read nor save files to my /home/travis dir. I can use mkdir from the terminal and it works and the like, just not through apps like gedit, ideas? Thanks

Re: XFCE4 not saving files

Check the path that you are saving it to carefully. Maybe it's trying to save it somewhere else?

Other than that, I would try creating a new user and see if you get the same issue. (Don't just log in as root, root can read/write anything, so the issue wouldn't show up.)
