I'm having a strange issue copying files to NTFS Partitions on Leopard. I have Paragon NTFS driver installed and it has been working great. I added a new HDD and formatted it with DiskUtil for Windows NT File System. Then I started to copy all of my Music to the newly NTFS formatted drive from another smaller NTFS formatted drive. Leopard gets through several gigs of the copy and then throws up a message saying "The copy cannot be completed because [so-and-so file] already exists". I figured this might be a permissions issue, so I connected the drive I was copying from back to my Vista laptop and made sure the folder Music and all subfolders and files were not marked as Read-Only. However, trying to copy again yields the same result. Any idea as to what is causing this? The MUSIC folder I'm copying contains subfolders for each Artist & Album.

I also use Paragon NTFS and have same problem copying different files from NTFS drive to MacOS. Every time this message comes, the copy process is stopped. I can just overwrite by hand the existing files on the Mac drive. It takes a lot of time this way.

Easier is all in all to use the terminal (the cp or [EDIT] ditto [/EDIT] command, this works)
