I too had the same issues with ntfs-3g as described in this post/bug report.
I upgraded from Wheezy to Jessie and for 4 days I had a drive that would not mount. The mounting folder would even disappear. After Googling and seeing solutions, and to László's dismay, it seems the community loves downgrading instead of testing release versions, I was going to use Wheezy's 2012 Oldstable version as others had but I took the strong advice of László Böszörményi (GCS) <[email protected]> in message reply 30 and others, and added testing to my source list and upgraded to the 2015 version instead of downgrading ntfs-3g. I am happy to say that after spending 4 days of non-stop research, László's 15 minute solution of installing the Debian testing version, my NTFS drive is working flawlessly. So now I have the protection and performance of the latest version of NTFS-3g. Thank you László for your "stern" reasoning. Please let me know if you need version numbers or system specifics. I will be happy to contribute the stats if necessary. Paul Chambers
