The key here is a proper combination of software versions. And the much worse problem is that “old” solutions do not work well.īut after one or two weeks of researching of this issue, I’ve managed to make NTFS work in Mac OS X Lion (10.7). And many users had started to complain that their NTFS disks stopped working. Mac OS X Lion (10.7) was released recently, in the end of July 2011. UPD (IMPORTANT): Native driver makes NTFS unusable. UPD : There is even better way to solve the same issue with native Mac OS X drivers, but it has its own pros and cons. 5 UPD: Using native drivers from previous Mac OS X versions to speed up write operations.
