Save Failed: File write failed

This is the message I get every time I try to save a huge project I'm working on. Last time I saved it was 1269 kb, so it wasn't that big yet. What should I do?

Have you run out of disk space on your computer?  Are you trying to save to a disk area that you don't have permission to write to?  Those are possible reasons that you might see that error.
