coolbgdog Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 I was thinking if I could write to the hd because some of my files are messed up on the windows hd and I am only able to use osx. Is there a way I can make osx write to the ntfs file system? Because when I go to "get info" it say I can only read and theres no way I can change it. If theres a program or utitly please tell me.

Eskurza Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 there is no possible way for Os X to write on NTFS partition.. u could do it if it was fat32.. you can download a Live Lunix Distribution.. any of them and access your drive from there.. on try to change your partiton to fat32 by using a dos version of partiton magic maybe.. I dont know if there is such a thing buy I know partition magic does all its work in dos mode when you're doing some changes on your primary hdd.. I guess it should be possible without loosing your data.. But try the UBUNTU live cd.. easier that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
