I tried this to make my NTFS discs writeable in Terminal, but now they are invisible..
with diskutil list I can see them.

" NTFS Write Support On OS X Mountain Lion
Posted on April 21, 2013
If you have noticed, Mac OS X doesn’t support writing onto NTFS disks. But not to worry, you don’t have to install any third party drivers to enable this. Mountain Lion 10.8.3 already has native write support for the NTFS. OSX Mountain Lion does have built-in support for NTFS, and it can read and write. However, Apple does not enable it by default.
Here is what you should do:
Uninstall other 3rd-party NTFS software, like Paragon, Tuxera or NTFS-3G.
Edit /etc/fstab (you can do this with “sudo vi /etc/fstab”)
Add the following line:
LABEL=”VOLUME_NAME_WITHOUT_QUOTES” none ntfs rw,auto,nobrowse
Quit your editor
Now, just unmount and re-mount the disk
And we are done! You now have read-write support for this disk in OSX
Wait a minute, I don’t see my disk listed in the Finder window!
As of Mountain Lion, the “nobrowse” mount option is required for this to work. This means that the partition will not show up on your desktop. However, you can access it normally through Finder by doing the following:
Open Terminal and type “open /Volumes/THE_NAME_OF_YOUR_VOLUME” (without the quotes)
The Finder pops up automatically and you can see your disk listed there.
This implementation is definitely better than any 3rd party implementation available. "
