I'm using FF 11.0 on a Mac, running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Since last versions (I don't remember anymore) when I download a file, FF offer me one of the last used download directories. In the preferences is checked "always ask". FF doesn't remember which was the last used directory and offer one of ones used in the last days. Opposite to a similar problem on Windows, where was reported that FF doesn't remember the last used directory after a restart. In my case FF mix the directories in the same session. I don't need to restart to face the problem ;-), the problem escort me all the time. And this is very, very uncomfortable. I deleted FF, the Cache, the preferences and installed FF again, with no addons. Same behavior. I installed FF on a clean Mac. Same behavior. It would be very helpful to solve this problem.
