i figured it out. "users" option should be "user."

Do you really want to give everyone full access? Better to give yourself full access only.
Add the options "uid=1000,gid=1000" to the appropriate entry in your fstab (assuming your UID is 1000).

I changed mine in the disks and file systems I entered as root and choose modify and then changed it to be owned by my user account

Assuming you have (a) a NTFS-formatted USB drive, (b) the user added to the "fuse" group, and (c) the ntfs-3g package installed, this line in /etc/fstab (with YOUR UUID number) should mount your usb drive if it is plugged in at boot time:

UUID=A8FC3435FC33FC5E /media/NTFSTICK ntfs-3g nouser,defaults,atime,exec,force 0 2

In my case, all usb sticks work perfect except for a usb hard disk drive. I get the following error "hal-storage-removable-mount-all-options refused uid 1000". What is wrong? How can i automount my disk drive?
