You can, however, use Peter Watson’s MS-DOS Utilities to write to MS-DOS disks.Īnother option is to use Peter Watson’s software with the BlueDisk controller card, which will enable you to use cheap, PC 3.5” floppy drives, plugged directly into your Apple IIGS, with which to read and write to MS-DOS disks. You cannot, however, write to MS-DOS disks in this way. If the files you want to move are small enough, and you have an Applied Engineering Super Drive with high density controller card on your Apple IIGS with System 6, you could simply copy the files across by floppy with the MS-DOS File System Translator (FST) installed. You will require third party solutions to achieve this. Simply copy whole disk images onto a formated FAT 16 CF card or USB stick and open them using the CFFA3000 on your IIGS.Ī.

If you have a Macintosh without a floppy drive (any Intel based Mac, iMac, iBook, Blue & White Power Mac G3, Power Mac G4, G5 and PowerBooks from the ‘Wallstreet’ G3 model onwards) it gets a lot trickier and you’re going to need additional third party solutions on your Apple IIGS and Macintosh to bridge the gap.ġ) You could use Compact Flash cards - using the CFFA Interface card, the reintroduced Focus, or the MicroDrive IDE or MicroDrive IDE Turbo on the Apple IIGS and using a compact flash card reader attached to your Mac via USB, you could transfer data across HFS formatted volumes.Ģ) With a SCSI controller card on your Apple IIGS using System 6 and a SCSI enabled PowerMac, you could swap and share HFS formatted SCSI hard drives or Zip drives across machines to transfer data.ģ) With a LANceGS Ethernet Card in your Apple IIGS and using Marinetti, the TCP/IP stack for the Apple IIGS, you could connect your IIGS to an Ethernet network and use FTP to transfer files between machines.Ĥ) With a serial connection (you will need a serial to USB converter for the Mac, such as the ‘Keyspan’) and using the ADTPro software.ĥ) The CFFA3000 makes it VERY easy to copy data to your Apple IIGS from your Mac or PC and vice-versa. You can use 5.04 or lower on the IIGS, but they will only be able to read ProDOS disks.ģ) Alternatively you could also LocalTalk the two machines with a standard Apple serial cable, turning on AppleTalk on both machines, setting your Mac to Fileshare and using the System 6 control panel on the IIGS to log into the Mac. Insert the disk into the IIGS and copy the files with the System 6 Finder.

If you only have high density disks, you can try applying sticky tape to hole in the corner of the disk that isn’t the write protect notch, but your success with this method may vary.Ģ) Copy files to that disk on your Mac using any Mac OS version from System 7 to Mac OS 8.6 (MacOS 9 to 9.2.2 reportedly has bugs in handling ProDOS disks, so be wary) and eject the disk. You CANNOT use high density floppy disks for use between Macs and the IIGS concurrently (you can, however, format a HD disk for the IIGS exclusively). If you've got a Mac with a standard built in floppy drive nothing could be easier:ġ) Simply format a DOUBLE DENSITY disk for HFS or ProDOS.
#Mac os 8.6 doesnt have enough power archive#
These archives have since been removed in the new version of the archive for the following reasons: the extra bandwidth taken, the annoyance of double handling of file archives and there are now programs on the IIGS (‘ DiskMaker’ - $5 shareware and ‘ Asimov’ – Freeware) which can convert 2image archives back to 3.5” floppy disks.Ī. zip is to Windows, or StuffIt to the Mac). ShrinkIt, on the other hand, is the 'native' archive and compression format of the Apple IIGS (as.

In short, if you wish to emulate the Apple IIGS, you would download 2images for use with those emulators. 2images are the standard for disk images for IIGS emulators (a more widely known term are ROMs, although that term is incorrect in regards to the IIGS, as the platform never used ROM based game cartridges). Do you know where I could get the PC version of game ‘x?’Ī. I don't own a real IIGS and XGS or KEGS won't run game ‘x’ properly. Why doesn’t the archive include Karateka, Taipei, Airheart, Captain Goodnight, Wings of Fury, AutoDuel, Wasteland, Robot Odyssey, etc? My favourite program refuses to work in KEGS/XGS/Bernie ][ the Rescue/Sweet 16! I've tried different emulator settings, but it still won’t work!
