Tuxera NTFS for Mac 2013 Released - Fully Compatible with OS X Mavericks

HELSINKI, October 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

Brings Further Improvements in Performance and Reliability

Tuxera Inc., market leader in interoperable file system technologies today released Tuxera NTFS for Mac 2013. The new version is aimed at every Mac user working in a mixed Windows and Mac environment. It is fully compatible with Apple's new operating system OS X® Mavericks, which launched at Apple's event in San Francisco yesterday.

OS X Mavericks has been already penned as the most powerful and power efficient Apple operating system to date. The upgrade includes a major overhaul of the look and feel of the entire platform, making it smarter and faster than any of its predecessors. Performance boost and a package of features including App Nap that saves power while working, interactive notification center, iCloud Keychain and more versatility in using multiple displays all improve usability.

Apple's OS X has always had very limited support for Microsoft Windows NTFS formatted hard drives and other storage media out of the box. By default OS X can only read files from Windows-formatted hard drives leaving the users unable to edit, copy or delete anything. Tuxera NTFS for Mac is the market leading solution, which brings full read-write compatibility across platforms. Tuxera NTFS for Mac provides also the fastest file transfer speeds while protecting user's data with a smart caching layer.

"We ensure that our customers are always up to date with the latest developments. Tuxera NTFS for Mac underwent rigorous testing to guarantee full compatibility with OS X Mavericks while bringing further enhancements to the performance and reliability at the same time. Most recent improvements include faster shut-down times, simplified product key input, signed kernel extension and more," commented Oscar Santolalla, Product Manager at Tuxera.
