The "crown" in question here is not just euphemism bestowed lightly for the sake of good reading but a title earned. Last year, when researching the "Mac Tech 25" most influential technical professionals, I said: "Someone has to wear the crown of top Mac OS X Hacker, and no one who has visited Amit Singh's website- (now superseded by would argue otherwise."

In a similar vein, the Sparkle project ( ) has rapidly assumed the vacant position of software update engine of choice for independent developers. The Growl project ( ) turned the mundane and cumbersome "jumping icon" user notification for applications into an elegant, translucent, and customizable badge of information for those application developers that didn't necessarily want to write our own notification systems or rely on Mac OS X's clunky leaping icons. Some events take a while to unfold or find their niche or hang around for a while then pick up steam to suddenly become real assets. The release of NeoOffice (), an aquafied port of the Open-Source OpenOffice suite in spring of 2005, also heralded a major event in the story of Mac OS X. Sometimes these events are "ah-ha" events, such as the preview of Time Machine for Leopard at WWDC, where the normally complex and tiresome task of daily backups and recovery of lost files and folders blossomed into something both sensible and fun.

I'm not sure if it was the Terminal code above or some interaction with NTFS-3G and MacFUSE but using mand by double-clicking it did not work.

dmg disk images would no longer mount! They would just spit out a "nonmountable volume" error! I was able to read/write to an NTFS-formatted external drive but found that 50% of my. Use AppleScript if you want to facilitate mounting and unmounting. To unmount, use sudo umount /dev/disk0s2. If not, type disktool -r and killall finder.

Still in Terminal, type ntfs-3g /dev/disk0s2 /Volumes/your_ntfs_volume -o ping_diskarb,volname="your_ntfs_volume".

In Terminal, type mkdir /Volumes/your_ntfs_volume, where your_ntfs_volume is the name of your NTFS volume.

In Disk Utility, check out the device identifier ( disk0s2 or something) of the NTFS volume, and unmount it.
