Jasc827, have you had any luck figuring out this issue? One of our clients is experiencing this as well and I have not been able to find a solution yet.

EDIT: I found a solution that worked for me. Not sure if it will help you or not. I narrowed it down to a specific list that was preventing the connections from saving. This list was using custom content types (Allow management of content types? set to Yes) and was causing the issue for some reason. This is what I did that allowed me to set up the connections.

1. Change "Allow management of content types?" from Yes to No
2. Save settings
3. Wait a minimum of 10 minutes
4. Change "Allow management of content types?" back to Yes
5. Wait a minimum of 10 minutes
6. Create an item in the list
7. Set up the connections on the filter webpart
8. Save page when done
9. Delete item created in Step 6

Hopefully that helps you as well.
