Hi Celelar

Just going through
'applications->Debian->applications->system->administration' and started
up 'gnome partition editor'. It showed me that its file system is ntsf;
its mountpoint is /mnt; its label is IOMEGA HDD; total size is 1.82TB
and I have used 61.37 GB.
It is mounted -- but not visible on the desktop. I first used it to
backup my win7 drive -- I wonder if I were to repartition it would it
then be visible to the desktop? The data that is on the drive is just a
backup of my win7 and of no real concern at this time.

I can't help you with desktop stuff, since I do all my mounting and
file-management via cli / tui (mc) tools. I have no idea if
repartitioning would make a difference, but it seems rather a drastic
step for such a simple thing as desktop visibility.

Sorry I can't help with the desktop stuff. I still recommend you check
if the data is there and accessible. This way, if you repost the
question, you'll be able to say exactly what works and what doesn't.
