What do you mean by "manually set to NTFS"? You mean, it has other FS but then
you formatted it to NTFS? That's okay, I think.

That last line seems weird, and I don't know what does it mean. Hope that's
just some warning we can safely ignore :)

What I may suggest:
-  check if device is still in /dev/ (you may find device name in the last
   lines of dmesg output)
-  try to mount it manually in a way like that:
   # mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbkey
   Of course, /dev/sda1 should be replaced with real device name, and
   /mnt/usbkey shoul exist.

If it works, problem is not in key but in your automounter. Maybe you have old
version on your laptop, or something.
