- Install
osxfuse
:
brew cask install osxfuse
-
Reboot your Mac.
-
Install
ntfs-3g
:
brew install ntfs-3g
Note: if it will be still yelling that osxfuse
is required even if you already installed it,
try to reinstall it by running command: brew cask reinstall osxfuse
.
- Disable System Integrity Protection (SIP):
Reboot your Mac and press (or hold) Command + R
, then from the top menu from Tools
open Terminal and run command:
csrutil disable
- Replace Apple's NTFS mount tool with the one provided by
ntfs-3g
:
sudo mv /sbin/mount_ntfs /sbin/mount_ntfs.orig
sudo ln -s /usr/local/sbin/mount_ntfs "/Volumes/Macintosh HD/sbin/mount_ntfs"
You might also need to follow these instructions. In my case, I was able to access the NTFS drive through the Terminal but not through the Finder. This fixed it. Also, osxfuse has been succeeded by macFUSE now, so download the latest version of macFUSE instead.
