So I just installed Winusb using the instructions from How can I create a Windows bootable USB stick using Ubuntu?
but when I use the application I cannot select a target device. I have a usb that I want to select, but whenever I click the box under "Target device:" nothing happens. The .iso / source selection is fine; the only problem is the target device selection.

There is a alternative way to make StartUPdisk
You need to install UNetbootin. Go to software center and search for it. Then install....
Run it.....from application
You will see this window
- Click on Diskimage.
- Select iso.
- Give 3 GB of space in Space used..... Then select your USB Drive from dropdown menu. Click ok. And wait until finished. Hope it helps.
Try dd command.
The dd command copies a file, converting the format of the data in the process, according to the operands specified.
Operands:
if=FILE -- Read from file instead of stdin.
of=FILE -- Write to file instead of stdout
bs=BYTES -- Read and write bytes at a time.
count=BLOCKS -- Copy only input blocks.
sync -- Use synchronized I/O for metadata.
Example:
Open a terminal.
Run it:
sudo -i
fdisk -l (Identify your usb-stick, suppose is /dev/sdb)
dd if=/path-to-your-iso/Win_7_64Bit.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=4M; sync
Note: Always clearly identify the usb-stick with fdisk -l command, improperly entering the wrong values could inadvertently overwrite the data on the hard drive.

For anyone having trouble with this, I found a simple solution which works if you are sure that the USB stick is properly formatted to NTFS and is mounted.
Start by finding the name of the mounted disk by running
sudo fdisk -l. Once you find it (it'll be something like/dev/sdc1), run the command based winusb command:And with that, it should work.
