Is your tablet rooted? you may need the sdcard fix due to 4.4 sdcard write to sdcard issue. Try to configure firefox to use internal storage if you're not rooted.
Tell us more about your device, is it root? stock firmware? custom recovery?
I'm with Buhohitr, except that I KNOW that your (OP) problem is Kitkat's write protection. I had this exact same problem after first installing KK. To fix it, use SDFix ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix), but you have to be rooted.
I am experiencing the same issue with firefox but also with other browsers like dolphin (with different error message) . but not only with browsers but also with es explorer . i applied all the fixes sd fix etc while rooted , i also tried unrooted . my internal sd is only affected by this not the external. I cant change anything in internal sd it is like locked. This is happening only in the official kitkat rom and the problem appeared all of a sudden.
Try this fixer:

I had to use two different apps, one for my LG phone, and the other for my tablet. One app kind of worked on my tablet, but not 100%. I cant remember which app I used on which device though.
Thanks for your suggestion. I finally fixed the issue first by installing supersu( already have towelroot) . After that i installed the following fixers : sd fix, sd fix tool and int sdcard write fix. The problem is solved with all browsers and es explorer. Maybe towelroot alone without supersu didnt left the fixers work before. I am not sure.
Same here
I also have the same Problem on my rooted Samsung XCover2. BUT this has Android 4.1.2 and most of the apps wich helped you didn't work on my older android version. What can I do??? Could I do anything with ADB, like force installing these apps, or do I have to reset it on the stock rom? What als a problem could be is, that I installed the false baseband version, but everything works except this :/
Please help me
