[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1604342"] ParagonNTFS is only a driver to allow OSX to WRITE to NTFS drives. Natively, OSX can read, but not write to NTFS format. So if the drive is FAT31, you don't need ParagonNTFS and it won't help. OSX can read/write FAT32, but it looks like your drive has become set to read only or the directory is corrupted, or worse. If you have access to a Windows machine, you can try plugging it in there and doing the Windows maintenance on the drive from there. It may fix the directory, if that is the problem. [/QUOTE]
