I had the same problem, and the only way I could find to access other partitions is through Nautilus. Now for some reason 10.10 makes it extremely hard to launch Nautilus. You'll first need to launch the terminal (it's called terminal not gnome-terminal). From within the terminal launch Nautilus. From there, you can access whatever files regular Desktop can access.

What am I missing? I've got an ntfs folder with all my "stuff" on it. I can't access this partition from "Files & Folders" so I've got "File Manager" on the bar. Talk to me, what am I missing/doing wrong? I should mention I'm dual booted with Windows XP which I use only when absolutely necessary. -- ubuntu-users mailing list <a onclick="return false;" href="mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users</a> </blockquote></div>
