I forgot to mention ... I have no idea how to start fixing this; right clicking on the media "367.1 GB Media" shows me no tab similar to "Mount" and no options on any tab in that window show the mount settings I set previously.

I'd also like to recommend if it is the case that I did add a "newline" or "G_DIR_SEPARATOR (usually /)" where it wouldn't work then it would have been nice for the program to tell me that.

Thanks.
