ripken204 Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 this is kind of odd. on my second hdd i have 2 ntfs partitions. leopard mounts one of the partitions perfectly but it wont mount the other one. it gives this error when i click mount: Mount FailedThe disk “Music/Movies” could not be mounted. Try running First Aid on the disk and then retry mounting. . that partition mounted perfectly in leopard so i'm not sure how i can fix it..

temis Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Before using your NTFS partitions from any other OS : Be sure to check your NTFS partitions from m$ windows : Open a terminal : win + R > type cmd + enter run : fsutil dirty query drive_letter: if it says it's ok ... you can leave it as is or check with following anyway, if not : For only errors check, run : chkdsk /f drive_letter: For bad sectors check, run : chkdsk /f /R drive_letter: This last command can be very long (hours !!) according to your NTFS partition size If there are errors on your NTFS partitions most of the time only native m$ windows tools will be able to warn you for error - repair them with /f and or search for bad sectors with /R (though there is now tools under linux etc ... but still not as reliable as those from windows) hope it helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewed Apple Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Tried the above, (Paragon mac-ntfs 3.3) I am having the same mounting problem. I can see it works for so many people, but not for the O.P. nor I! I verified/repaired all HFS+ disks in Disk Utility. I also checked all NTFS Volumes under Vista. No errors. When I used NTFS-3g, when a disk had errors, it would not mount, but in this case they are all clean. Are there any working NTFS solutions on Leo yet? On Leo, mini. Thanks. Edit: I read 3.3 does not work on Leopard. But 3.2 does, can anyone confirm this? Would be nice to get it working, instead of using NTFS-3g (it does work, for the record) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stewed Apple Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 They do work. They are slow, would be nice to get paragon working. Since it is not mounted as a NFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
