Can't access storage after cm install topic

A long time ago I installed an official cm rom for my Tab 2 10. But soon noticed there was an issue. None of the apps could use the storage except for Google play to download apps and Es file Explorer with root at first I thought it was an issue with the rom so I installed countless others including stock based but still no apps can use storage downloads just say download failed swiftkey says unable to save to storage some apps like netflix can stream very frustrating, any help would be great thanks
