Write NTFS disks without any Software in Mountain Lion

It is perhaps one of the most common "problems": I can not write to my external drive!

Almost always the answer is in NTFS. The record you have (external) are NTFS and so the Mac can not write upon him.

If you have an older operating there is the NTFS-3G, if you have the Lion should do this procedure if you have Mountain Lion not working any of the normal two.

In this case therefore we have the option to enable support of the same OS X on NTFS. To do this you have to write a couple thing or two in Terminal, and we should do this procedure for each disk you want to have full access.

Should we do the following steps:

Open the Terminal (Can be found in Applications / Utilities) and give the following command:

sudo nano /etc/fstab

after this command we will be asked the password of a user with administrator.

After you give and password and pressing enter will open us up in the same window the nano text editor

In this window we want to add another line (if no) that writes the following:

LABEL=To_onoma_tou_diskou_mas none ntfs rw,auto,nobrowse

After we wrote it we can close the nano editor. To do that press the keys Ctrl + X and then Y (as yes) and then Enter.

This procedure to do it once for each NTFS drive interest.

Now you have to jump and put back in our disk (you can do this through the disk utility).

You should go back to Terminal and give the following command:

open /Volumes/To_onoma_tou_diskou_mas

After this command opens a Finder window with our record.

Alternatively we can press Cmd + Shift + C while we are on the Finder to go to the contents of our Computer or if it is easier we can make it through the menu bar (Finder / Go / Computer).

This last bit is something to do in Mountain Lion.

Although I understand that it is a bit 'difficult ¨ does not cease to be the way with as little fuss and without having to install any additional software.
