Ubuntu 13.04 doesn’t have support for exFAT filesystems, which are now being used on portable hard-drives, especially those with SSDs. Fortunately the fix is one line away:
sudo apt-get install exfat-fuse
Now reconnect your drive and it should be automatically mounted.
Thanks a million! That’s perfect… at 300kb, it seems strange that it is not included.
Super! Thank you, very much!
nice job, it works
Super ! Works cool…
AWESOME! THANKS!
To install exfat on Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy Salamander, you don’t need to add any extra PPA to your sources list. You only need exfat-utils package
$ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install exfat-utils
Ubuntu and Linux Mint will not automatic mount exfat devince. To mount exfat device, plug in your device and run:
$ su –
# cat /proc/partitions
# cd /media
# mkdir usbdrive
# mount -t exfat /dev/sdd1 usbexfat

It works for Ubuntu 13.10 as well. Thanks!
Perfect, even for rookies. The only prerequisite I had to find out was: how to open a terminal session? Q:-)
This fix did not work for my SDXC flash memory cards on either 13.04 or 13.10 on my other machine. Neither multicard reader could acknowledge the contents nor display the contents.
@David Blales, that might be a hardware limitation of your card reader. If the card reader doesn’t support SDXC, it won’t read in any OS. Does it work on Windows?
