Any time I try to download extensions on Safari 6 I get an error message, what do I do?

I want to download the AddBlock extension for Safari ^ off of the apple website, but every time I try to download I get the same error message which says, "Safari can't download the extension." I have tried completely quitting Safari and re-downloading, but nothing is working. Anyone have any insight?

MacBook Pro, iOS 6.1

Triple-click the line below to select it:

~/Library/Safari/Extensions

Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select

Services Show Info

from the contextual menu. An Info dialog should open.

Does the dialog show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section?
In the General section, is the box labeled Locked checked?
