Where can I download the MAC version of NTFS-3G? The link on the page you link to links back to you, so I'm going around in circles!

Wow!! This is SUPERB! I've been waiting for this for a long time. To get it working, I used some instructions from a comment on a MacOSX Hints article. Quoted from jo7ker:

(1) Downloaded the latest MacFUSE package (dmg from Google);
(2) Installed MacFUSE package and restarted the Mac;
(3) Downloaded the NTFS-3g package (dmg from Chucker's - lifehack link is dead);
(4) Fixed the "macfuse_required" error (tip from InsanelyMac);
(5) Installed the NTFS-3g package (no restart);
(6) Plugged in my NTFS-formatted USB2 external drive (which wouldn't even mount before) and it just appeared on my Macbook's desktop - read-write!!!

It works, but transfer speeds are really slow for me. about 1MB/s is all I can get.

Anyone managed to find binaries for PicasawebFS, DocsFS and RSSFS? All I can find on Google are links to Amit's video.

@ geira

From a brief search on GoogleGroups, it sounds like at least the PicasawebFS add-on was just made as a tech demo, and not for public consumption. Maybe if you emailed Amit he'd let you try it out.
