OS X El Capitan: Get Support for NTFS Drives

El Capitan is out, building on top of Yosemite. Major refinements include added user-friendly features and under-hood performance boosts. Upgraded Metal, Apple's graphic processing technology, improves image rendering and resources efficiency making gaming and launching apps much faster.

What else is new? Spotlight search now offers better functionality with more sources and support for natural language input. Users can manage messages with iOS-style gestures and take control of multiple emails with a revamped set of tools. Added Smart Suggestions recognize events and names easily adding them to contacts and calendar. If you like multitasking you will love Split View. New tool from Apple lets you work in two applications at once without a distraction of other open apps.

We have a fresh Tuxera NTFS for Mac for those looking for seamless handling NTFS drives on a Mac. Apple does not support writing NTFS volumes out of the box so if you want to transfer files between Windows and Mac, edit and delete them without formatting the drive to HFS+ you will need a third party solution.

Tuxera NTFS for Mac 2015

Tuxera NTFS for Mac brings automatic updates letting you upgrade the application as soon as the new version becomes available. You can do it via the "Updates" tab in Tuxera preference pane in System Preferences. We also added much needed functionality for disk formatting as well as check & repair tools. The System Integrity Protection (SIP) feature introduced by Apple in El Capitan prevents the use of third-party software in Disk Utility meaning that formatting, checking and repairing NTFS drives is not easily available. Tuxera Disk Manager ensures that that these tools are easy to use and always a click away.*

Always fast and reliable, Tuxera NTFS for Mac delivers the highest transfer speeds while protecting your data with smart caching layer. Wondering how it behaves with other programs? Tuxera NTFS for Mac is compatible with popular virtualization and encryption solutions including Parallels Desktop® and VMware Fusion®.
