I totally fixed this!!
Solved
I was amazed I tried everything that was written on the net about this... and nothing worked...
Here is the background ... All of a sudden during development I uploaded a fresh .unity file to my webserver (apache) and I kept getting this "Failed To Download Data File"
"Download Failed" over and over again...
I tried uploading new files...checking the MIME types... updating / uninstalling webplayers....
A big joke was that Chrome was my only way I could get unity working... with all the chrome issues here I am using it to test out my upload...Long story short here is the answer:
1) goto FF Help / Menu (F10 if Menubar is not showing)
2) select "Restart with Add Ons Disabled"
3) Answer YES to restart Firefox
4) Wait a moment. FF will restart and immediately show you a window stating you are about to enter safe mode .... you will have 2 buttons.... Hit the "REFRESH" button.
5) Another Message box will Appear hit "REFRESH" button AGAIN
6) Let Firefox do it's Refreshing and Bingo. You are back in business.
