I have a truecrypt volume on a hard drive. When I try to mount the volume from the hard drive I get an error with Incorrect password or not a truecrypt volume. If I copy the truecrypt volume onto my local hard drive and then mount it, it works fine.
Any ideas?

I used to get this same problem and searched the net and tried everything others had. I was on a Lenovo 64 bit laptop (T410) running Windows 7. I had a separate logical drive and was encrypting the entire drive. The HDD on my laptop is a 500gb, 150 odd for my C drive and another 350 odd for my X drive. I encrypted my entire X drive (logical drive).
True Crypt was working fine and then suddenly one day after using it for about a month, it just would not mount and kept telling me the password was wrong (the password was not wrong). I actually deleted the partition and started all over again. And it worked fine for a few days and then i had the same issue again.
anyway i tried everything but eventually i got it working by changing my drive letter for the mount.
I suspect that something i installed was locking up the partition so when i changed the drive letter from x to s it suddenly started working again. I changed this in My computer, Manage, Disk Management, right click on the drive and then change the drive letter.
Hope this helps others who may have had the same issue.
