I can mount the Windows partition in my Ubuntu installation but I don't seem to be able to create or paste files in to the mounted partition. I don't know how to fix it. Any ideas?

  • was your windows system shut down correctly? or are you talking about sharing files across a network?

    You're not mounting it correctly. More information - askubuntu.com/questions/5069/… (the information is for automount, however you can specify the options while mounting through the terminal too)

If you mounted from Nautilus, it uses a special GNOME API (gio/gvfs). You can't access the files from command line or non-gnome-aware programs. But there is a bridge:

You should install gvfs-fuse 

sudo apt-get install gvfs-fuse

and restart Nautilus (perhaps killall -HUP nautilus is enough)
