For some reason the permissions for the media share isn't always right. You can change this by going to Frontview -> Shares -> Share listing
Then click on one of the icons next to the media share that looks like a page of paper (doesn't matter which one). Next click on the Advanced Options tab.
Make sure that the Share folder owner is "nobody" (without the ""). The group should be "nogroup". It's a bit misleading but "nobody" is a user named "nobody". Transmission runs as this user.
Owner and group rights should be "Read/write". Share folder everyone rights doesn't matter much for Transmission. Setting it to Read/write gives everyone read/write rights to the share.
Next tick the box in front of the line saying:
"Set ownership and permission for existing files and folders in this share to the above settings. This option is useful in cases where you are changing security levels and need to workaround file access problems."
Lastly click the Apply button.
After this, all the files and folders in your media share should have their permissions reset so that Transmission can use it. This might take a while, so wait a few minutes before starting Transmission again.
