NTFS On Mac

Posted by Waiel December 1, 2007 * Comments(2)

We all know that mac doesn’t support Read/Write on NTFS drives they can only read from it, Recently i wanted to be able to write on NTFS drives from my mac and i found a software (FREE!) to do that and it works great.

The software called (NTFS-3G) You can download the DMG file for it from Download NTFS-3G 1.1120 [stable] . you’ll need first to install MacFuse which is the extension required by NTFS-3G . you can download it from here :

The website for MacFuse project is : http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/

After installing it and rebooting i managed to read and write on NTFS volumes and was able finaly to give my windows friends files they requested on their NTFS Drives :)

Hope that helps someone
