Tuxera Ntfs Could Not Mount Dev Disk3s1

  1. Tuxera Ntfs Could Not Mount /dev/disk2s1 At /volumes/

Tuxera NTFS is one of the best NTFS softwares for Mac OS X.It is designed to make Mac OS X compatible with NTFS Drivers. By using this commercial software, mac users have the right to read or write data from any USBs or External Hard Drivers in NTFS format. The New Technology File System (NTFS) is a proprietary file system created by Microsoft and is used extensively in Microsoft’s Windows operating systems. By default most Linux distributions are not able to mount NTFS, however it is possible to install a driver that allows us to do this so that we can read and write data to an NTFS disk. Tuxera NTFS is software that allow you to read and write to NTFS (Windows) formatted drives. OS X has only read support for NTFS formatted drives. NTFS is the file system format typically used on a Windows PC. You can use Get Info (Cmd + I) to check the file system format of the drive. A mac formatted drive will typically list the format as Mac OS Extended (Journaled) (also known as HFS) while.

NTFS-3G could not mount - unclean shutdown
'NTFS-3G could not mount /dev/disk3s1 at /Volumes/Untitled because the following problem occurred:
$LogFile indicated unclean shutdown 0, 0)'..(etc)
I have done all of the following:
  1. Installed the latest:
    - MacFUSE-2.0.3,2
    - NTFS-3G_1.5130u2-stable-catacombae
    - Developer Tools xcode312_2621
  2. Added '/dev/rdisk3s1 /Volumes/Untitled ntfs-3g force 0 0' to the /etc/fstab file
  3. Attempted to run 'mount -t ntfs-3g -o force /dev/disk3s1 /Volumes/Untitled'
  4. Run the strip command:
    sudo strip -arch ppc -no_uuid -S /Library/Filesystems/fusefs.fs/Support/fusefs.kext/Contents/MacOS/fusefs
    (BTW fuse.fs is not located in Library/Filesystems, not System/Library/Filesystems)

The old NTFS-3G worked just fine. I don't understand the point of the dialog instructions on how to force if it simply doesn't work. I get the 'could to mount' error every time and I am absolutely going nuts.
Someone please help.

The Windows taskbar always has an icon for external drivers, called 'Safely Remove Hardware'. Use it then NTFS-3G will mount the drive. The error means that you may lost data last time when you used Windows because you didn't follow Microsoft's instructions how to safely remove external disks.
If you don't have Windows anymore then type
sudo mkdir '/Volume/NTFS'
sudo /usr/local/bin/ntfs-3g -o force /dev/disk3s1 /Volume/NTFS

I managed to get this drive to Windows system and unmounted it 'safely'. However, this is one of the very things I use NTFS-3G for: to access and backup a faulty Windows NTFS drive.
So, two things for you, as Lead Developer:
  1. Why are the instructions you posted to me above not what is in the dialog that appears, instead of what simply does not work? (And has caused MANY entries across the internet because of it.)
  2. Why not create a button option in said dialog, to just do it? (OK, Cancel, and Force)

I'm actually responsible for that dialog, as I'm developing the Mac OS X glue that integrates NTFS-3G into Mac OS X.
The suggestion is interesting, but currently the dialog only exists to give the user some feedback as to why an inserted drive isn't mounted. It only displays the stdout and stderr output from ntfs-3g. It's implemented in an extremely unflexible way, by simply telling SystemUIServer to display a message.
It's a better option than silently ignoring the failed mount, but I agree that it would be even better if the user could interactively choose to force a mount, though it would require some development effort to realize that functionality..
There is a problem with this though.. Making it easier to mount a drive that wasn't unmounted properly could encourage bad/unsafe behaviour from the user, ultimately leading to data loss and unhappy users (it's really their own responsability, but still.. we shouldn't encourage this practice).
A big part of this issue is that it should be easier to remove a drive properly and cleanly from Windows.
Operating system environments often have various visual aids to help users to cleanly unmount drives, such as eject buttons next to removable drives and special icons to indicate which drives are removable.
Microsoft does provide a right-click menu option to eject drives, and lists them as removable when you look at drive details, but there is no eject button or icons that differentiate the drive from internal drives.
On top of that, it's often completely impossible to remove a drive from Windows cleanly because some process has opened a handle to a file on the drive, and there is no way of 'force' unmounting the drive and invalidate that open handle.

Another thing to note is that the instructions, as returned when ntfs-3g fails to mount, doesn't fully apply to Mac OS X.
For instance: /etc/fstab is not used on Mac OS X.. it doesn't even exist on my Mac OS X system.. so that instruction is completely unsupported. I may add some conditional code around those lines in the future to prevent them from being displayed.

I just got this same message on a maxtor external HD straight out of the box--it never had been unsafely unmounted to anything.
What can I do?

You can run chkdsk /f on the drive on a Windows system and try again.

Difficult to do if you don't have a functioning one handy.
This is what I've found that works (cribbed from a post I found on this subject)
make a directory in /Volumes called NTFS
then run the following command:
sudo ntfs-3g /dev/diskXsY /Volumes/NTFS -olocale=en_US.UTF-8,force,auto_xattr,defer_auth,defer_permissions,volname='NTFS'
Where X and Y are the disk and partition numbers; the error message you get from the automounter contains this information. It will be something like /dev/disk3s1
This works to get dirty but still mountable NTFS volumes to mount, good for data recovery and such.
It probably ends up having issues back in Windows, but in general they're just going back in the box for a reformat and re-install of windows, so for our purposes this works well.

Tuxera Inc. develops and sells file systems software. Its most popular products are Tuxera NTFS and Tuxera exFAT, both available on a number of platforms including Linux, Android, QNX and macOS. Tuxera's customers include a number of consumer electronics manufacturers in mobile phones, tablets, TVs, set-top boxes, automotive infotainment and storage markets.[1] Tuxera NTFS for Mac provides read-write connectivity to Windows formatted hard drives for macOS.[2]

The company was founded in 2008 and is currently headquartered in Espoo, Finland. Tuxera's other offices are located in US, South Korea,[3] Omnisphere 2 patches missing. , Japan, Germany, Taiwan and China.

History[edit]

The origin of the company dates back to the open-source NTFS development in the late 1990s. NTFS had been introduced in 1993 by Microsoft as the file system for Windows NT. At that time Anton Altaparmakov emerged as the lead developer and maintainer of the Linux NTFS kernel driver. Meanwhile, Szabolcs Szakacsits continued to lead a platform-independent project under the name NTFS-3G. In 2006, NTFS-3G became the first driver to gain full read and write support. Commercial activity started in 2007 and the company was founded next year. In 2009 the company signed agreements with Microsoft,[4] which was followed by global expansion and establishing the collaboration with chipset vendors and software platform companies.[5]

In February 2011 Tuxera joined the Linux Foundation,[6] which was an expected step as for many years Tuxera has contributed to the Linux kernel.

In July 2019 Tuxera acquired Datalight, [7] to strengthen its internal storage offering and expertise in flash memory and flash management software.

Embedded products[edit]

NTFS-3G[edit]

NTFS-3G is the original free-software 'community edition' driver used widely in Linux distributions, including Fedora, Ubuntu, and others. In April 12, 2011 it was announced that Ntfsprogs project was merged with NTFS-3G.[11]

VelocityFS by Tuxera (formerly Tuxera Flash File System)[edit]

Tuxera also develops and commercializes its own proprietary Flash file system. Due to its fail-safe technology it can be found for instance in vehicles and cars, integrated with the event data recorder to make sure the data recorded from sensors is consistent even in case of a crash.[12]

Tuxera FAT+[edit]

In 2017, Tuxera introduced FAT+[13], a file system implementation for Universal Flash Storage cards and removable storage that is compatible with FAT32 but without the file size limitation of 4 GiB. It is royalty free for UFS card host devices[14] and a standard recommended by the Universal Flash Storage Association[15].

Consumer products[edit]

AllConnect[edit]

AllConnect is a mobile app that allows to stream music, photos and videos from Android devices to DLNA receivers (smart TVs, set-top-boxes, wireless speakers, etc.). It was launched in November 12, 2013 under the name of Streambels.[16]

Tuxera NTFS for Mac[edit]

Tuxera NTFS for Mac allows macOS computers to read and write NTFS partitions. By default, macOS provides only read access to NTFS partitions. The latest stable version of the driver is 2016, released in September 2016.[17] With the introduction of System Integrity Protection (SIP) by Apple in OS X El Capitan, usage of third-party software in Disk Utility is no longer possible. As a workaround, Tuxera NTFS for Mac ships together with Tuxera Disk Manager[18] to facilitate the format and maintenance of NTFS volumes in macOS. Currently the software supports 13 languages: Arabic, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Turkish.[19] The software supports 64-bit kernels, including OS X El Capitan.[20] It supports NTFS extended attributes and works with virtualization and encryption solutions including Parallels Desktop and VMware Fusion.
