Re: Why can't I copy anything to my external hard drive it's not even half full?

Hi, Really? Wow. That sounds like a horrible experience. For me, it's just as quick as browsing Mac OS Extended Journaled drives. It might be worth reporting. That doesn't sound right. Regards, Nic On May 10, 2010, at 9:36 AM, Sarah Alawami wrote: It works really good but the thing I find is

Hi, If you are new to the Mac, you probably do not want to do this. However, if you still feel like attempting this, you can enable the read/write to NTFS through Terminal for a particular volume. That's the free way, but if you are not careful, you could get potential problems. I'll repost

Re: Why can't I copy anything to my external hard drive it's not even half full?

Hi Nick and all, There is a free program that ads NTFS read and write support to mac. It is called NTFS 3g. You can get this program and it costs nothing. The coolest part about it is that, in your disk utility, you have the option to format drives in NTFS if you so desire. hth John On May

I did it with macfuse and ntfs3g not through the terminal. I guess both ways work eh? On May 9, 2010, at 10:47 AM, Nicolai Svendsen wrote: Hi, If you are new to the Mac, you probably do not want to do this. However, if you still feel like attempting this, you can enable the read/write to

Hi, Paragon NTFS costs 39 dollars. However, I've never messed with MacFUSE myself (which is the free product), but I'm sure someone can point you in the right direction. Regards, Nic On May 9, 2010, at 8:15 PM, Sarah Alawami wrote: Oh it's free. I had a blog post but google ntfs3g and

Hi, Well obviously. ;) Having more than one solution is always a good idea, and Terminal and Paragon NTFS are just one of those I chose to outline, regardless of Paragon NTFS costing a bit of money. I know of MacFUSE but never got to mess with it, nor the NTFS 3G you're talking about.
