I can mount the Windows partition in my Ubuntu installation but I don't seem to be able to create or paste files in to the mounted partition. I don't know how to fix it. Any ideas?

was your windows system shut down correctly? or are you talking about sharing files across a network? – RolandiXor Nov 30 '10 at 18:14

1You're not mounting it correctly. More information - http://askubuntu.com/questions/5069/cant-set-permissions-for-files-on-an-ntfs-partition/ (the information is for automount, however you can specify the options while mounting through the terminal too) – dkuntz2 Dec 08 '10 at 02:25

If you mounted from Nautilus, it uses a special GNOME API (gio/gvfs). You can't access the files from command line or non-gnome-aware programs. But there is a bridge:
You should install gvfs-fuse
sudo apt-get install gvfs-fuse
and restart Nautilus (perhaps killall -HUP nautilus
is enough)
