Comes With Extensive NTFS Repair Fully Integrated With Mac OS X

HELSINKI, FINLAND-- April 30, 2012 -- Tuxera Inc., the leading provider of interoperable file systems for Android, Linux, Mac and other platforms, today announced the release of Tuxera NTFS for Mac 2012. The installer and user interface have been localized to support twelve new languages including Arabic, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Turkish. Among many new features Tuxera NTFS for Mac now includes Tuxera's extensively developed NTFS verify and repair functionality fully integrated with Disk Utility.

Tuxera NTFS for Mac allows Mac OS X users read and write to external hard drives, USB memory sticks and other portable storages formatted with Microsoft Windows.

Tuxera NTFS for Mac is also a very popular tool for designers and digital imaging professionals who work with large files across PCs and Macs. FAT is not a suitable option for portable file system storage because it limits file sizes to 4GB, and cloud storages have well known performance, security and availability concerns. Tuxera NTFS for Mac has been designed to support the users need for interoperability across their devices.

"Tuxera is committed to provide all Mac users worldwide an easy-to-use, lightning fast tool to access their Windows formatted hard drives and other storages. Tuxera NTFS for Mac installer and preference panel is now translated and localized into 13 languages," said Oscar Santolalla, Product Manager at Tuxera.

Lion is here!

Apple's awaited OS X Lion has been finally released. The delivery is what you can expect from Apple: tons of new features, both for improved user experience and under the hood performance. This is the first time you can upgrade your Mac directly through Mac App Store. According to the numbers:

Apple® today announced that in just one day, over one million users bought and downloaded Mac OS® X Lion, the eighth major release of the world’s most advanced operating system... users are buying Lion faster than any other OS release in Apple’s history.

Now that's just huge!

While the popularity of Mac is skyrocketing to new records, we're also seeing more and more people using multiple operating systems and not just one. Windows is not disappearing any time soon and remains the number one choice in many homes and workplaces alike. This means that Macs also need full, rock solid Windows interoperability. Many of those new to Mac bring with them Microsoft Windows formatted hard drives and may continue to use Windows still on the side. And the chances are high that as a Mac user you will need to exchange large amounts of data with friends and colleagues who stay on Windows.

This is where Tuxera NTFS for Mac comes to help. With complete support to OS X Lion, Tuxera NTFS for Mac adds full read and write compatibility with all Windows-formatted drives.

We are very proud to have been flooded by positive feedback on how Tuxera NTFS for Mac is working now smoothly on Mac OS X Lion. Thank you to every one of you!

For those of you who haven’t yet upgraded your system, we urge you to download and install the latest stable version 2011.4.1 which was released already on June 20th.

Last but not least I'd like to remind that once you buy a Tuxera NTFS for Mac license you will get future releases free of charge.
