Enabling NTFS write in OSX

found this info from: http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20090913140023382

get the uuid from:
diskutil info /Volumes/volume_name

sudo vim /etc/fstab

enter

UUID=123-456-789 none ntfs rw

replace the uuid with the one from the diskutil

this will work with bootcamp’s partition only if you did not use win7’s installer to repartition the drive.

also when removing the windows bootcamp. you need to use the win7 installer disk and remove the windows partition as well as possibly the bootup system partition. mac’s bootcamp assistant will not be able to remove the windows system partition for one reason or another. this would result in having to reformat the mac to rectify the issue.
