Can't write to external disk drivers

Hi guys
I own a 2TB TC. I've connected two WD hard drivers through usb hub and they are all reformatted to FAT32. I can see them and I can have access to them as well but the problem is I can't write to them and I can't copy any thing to them. Can any one help?

Have you verified and if necessary, repaired the disk(s) using Disk Utility on your Mac?

[SOLVED] Media player that can read/write ratings to file

Hello everyone. I was wondering if there were any suggestions for a media player besides Banshee that read/write song ratings to the music file itself?
Last edited by Somnus (2013-08-08 03:22:18)

After quite a search I've finally found something! It's called Guayadeque and has exceeded my expectations. It automatically pulled in the ratings and playcount that were embedded through Banshee, and even has a built in way to download and embed coverart. I would highly recommend checking it out if anyone is looking for something that is literally 10% the size of Banshee!

Can't write to external disk after cloning startup disk to it

After cloning my PowerBook Pro's startup disk to an external Thunderbolt drive, and temporarily using that drive to boot-up, the Thunderbolt drive is locked into Read Only mode. How do I enable it to write again? The INFO pane says the following: System privilege: "Read & Write"; wheel: "Read Only"; everyone: "Read Only". The basis for my cloning was to deal with a very full startup disk that I did a lot of video editing on (very processor intensive). The disk had become fragmented to the point that it couldn't access sectors fast enough for editing, so I cloned it over to a G-Tech Thunderbolt drive (using Carbon Copy Cloner), reformatted the MacBook startup disk, then reverse-cloned the copied files back over from the Thunderbolt, the idea being that they'd be re-written nice 'n neat in unfragmented order into their proper sectors. I then ceased booting-up from Thunderbolt, but now the system seems to think that Thunderbolt is still special in some way like a gossling bonded to a surrogate human mother, and it won't let me write to it. Can anybody help me with this?

Can't write to pc disk

I tried to write to a friend's hard disk but the disk is indicated as read only. There is no problem reading from it. I cannot "ignore permission because there is no checkbox on my dialog box. Does this disk have to be changed from the original computer to allow me to write to it, or can I do something in my system to allow me to write to it?

"In his session at Macworld on OS X filesytems, Google's Amit Singh announced that he has ported Linux's FUSE module to OS X. The port is called MacFUSE and it is available in source form and as a pre-compiled kernel extension with associated tools. Many FUSE filesystems such as sshfs and ntfs-3g are reported to work."
This should allow you to write filess to the NTFS formated external disks as well.

"Files can not write or be written to disk" (pic problem)

I can't seem to figure out why I get the error that I can't write to the disk. Does that mean I can't write to the ipod? I've tried 5 r's and still can't figure it out. Is is an OS issue on my comp? Anyway, I can't figure it out...thanks for your time.

I can't write to usb stick [solved]

I've installed arch on my notebook yesterday. It took a few hours, but I got almost everything working correctly.
My issue is that when I plug in a usb stick, it gets automatically mounted, but I can't write to it.
I had the same issue with my ntfs data partition, but I solved it by adding an entry to /etc/fstab.
Unfortunately that won't be an efficient solution for usb sticks, since their partition type might vary.

I don't think that the storage group covers this. All USB storage devices that I have seem to come up as being part of the disk group. You should really not make your user part of the disk group.
If you read the post, and saw the info provided by the OP, you would see that he/she is trying to write to an iso, which is read-only.

Can't write on my usb pen drive from 2 days?!?

hi, from 2 days i can't write on my usb pen drive (Transcend JetFlash Flash 16gb with FAT32 partition)
if I do a manual mount in a console by root, I can easly a do cp command and copy files over.
if I open dolphin and mount by hal the drive, I can read but not copy files, and if I open a console and do a cp command, I have this error:
cp: cannot create regular file `/media/OZETA/ownage.png': Read-only file system
what the... is going on? i used my pen 4 or 5 days ago
on the contrary, i can mount my sd card (fat32) and my 2 usb disk (fat32 and ntfs) and i can write on them.
help

Have you tried running dosfsck on the device? Of course, be sure that you unmount the usb drive and verify the dev file of the relevant partition.
Something like:
dosfsck /dev/sdb1 <----replace with correct dev file!!
to see what the problem is and then
dosfsck -a /dev/sdb1
Of course, I would strongly encourage you to backup all data on the drive first.

I am connecting an external USB HDD and I can see it on my Apple Macbook Air. BUT this drive is READ only. How can I write to it?

Drive Partition and Format
1.Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.

[SOLVED]trying to mount disk so all users can read write

I'm trying to mount my hard drive to /mnt/2TB automatically at startup. My /etc/fstab looks like this...
/dev/sda2 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/sdb1 /mnt/2TB ntfs auto,exec,rw,users,uid=1000 0 0
ls / shows...
drwxrwxrwx 3 root root 4096 Jun 30 20:09 mnt
ls /mnt shows...
drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4096 Jun 20 21:21 2TB
When I restart the disk mounts fine but I cannot write anything to disk. I want to mount this disk so that anyone can read, write, and execute on it. I specified these options in my fstab. What options am I missing?
EDIT:
I figured it out. I had to install ntfs-3g. Once I did that I changed my fstab to this...
/dev/sda2 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/sdb1 /mnt/2TB ntfs-3g defaults,uid=1000 0 0
Then I changed /mnt permissions to ...
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jun 30 20:09 mnt
Then I changed /mnt/2TB permissions to...
drwxrwxrwx 1 necbot users 4096 Jun 20 21:21 2TB
Works great!

I ran across this in the ntfs-3g manual which might be of some interest. It appears that adding "permissions" to the mount options for ntfs-3g might accomplish roughly what you want, but you may have to perform some work to get it operational. Likewise, the Windows ACL may interfere and a quick glance seems to me to suggest that you might have to tweak things from Windows to get the permissions working well.
I personally have all of my Windows partitions mounted under /windows, but I can see why that isn't an ideal solution if you're dabbling in Arch or have things you want to more easily share in one direction.
Hope this helps somewhat even though you've already marked the topic as solved.

Can't write to mounted HDD after updates. (SOLVED)

Im using XFCE as my DE.
I can no longer write to mounted HDD. Neither the 2nd HDD in my computer or my USB backup drive. I can't write to them as root either?!
I can read them just fine, even drag files from them but nothing at all will write to them.
Any ideas??

I will have a proper look at the above articles after work, i thought i would quickly post this up to see if someone spots anything obvious.
Thank you.

Can't Write to my Micro SD card on my phone using USB cable

I can see the files on my krzr phone when mounted via usb cable, but I can read/write using Bluetooth just not with USB isn't that wierd?
(I've read some forums about locks on the cards this is the super tiny kind with no slidable lock)
If have a lot of music want to transfer and the bluetooth takes a while
Can't change when look at permission in info.
Any thoughts..

You can likely read/write through bluetooth because that wouldn't require any extra software on the Mac's end. I think that accessing the phone through USB requires interface software on the Mac. The KRZR may not come up as what is called a "USB Mass Storage Device" and thus can't be used as a disk. What you can do is take that MicroSD card and put it in a MicroSD --> SD Adapter. Then you can get a USB card reader and put the card into that and it would mount on your Mac. As far as I know about Motorola phones, you would be able to put MP3's, photos, etc on it, but I don't think ringtones can be transferred this way.

Ubuntu linux machine can not write to connected usb hard drive

Hi, I bought a WRT610N router. I connected my USB drive to it, and it is working fine with my Vista Machine. However, my Ubuntu linux machine can not write to it. It can read it great, but it can not write. If I connect the drive directly to the Ubuntu device, it reads and writes fine.
I've set all the permissiosn and such in the router setup. I didn't need to do anything in Vista. Is there something I need to do in Ubuntu? I'm new to Linux so Imay have missed something.
Thank you.

Create a new admin user and give all permissions oj your router and check if you can write to it on your Ubuntu linux machine...
