Drag the disk to the bin?  I'd expect that to delete everything on it! Thanks :-)   I'll try to remember to not eject the disk when I want to eject it, and put it in the bin when I still want it!   :blink:

I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but I'm getting the same floppy icon over and over whenever I put the disk back in.  I'm ejecting it each time.  Is it something I'm doing wrong? I've just installed OS X 10.5.4 on a Mac Mini I forgot I had.  It's made transferring files so much easier...

I tried putting a .sit file on the disk, but it didn't work.  I'm probably not understanding how to do it with Mini vMac (I have the .sit on the iMac and can't get it into the emulator), so I been getting disk images, then copying the files in those to a floppy image in the emulator, then...

Thanks!  That looks like it's going to work.  I've written a disk using DD and I think I have StuffIt on the SE.  It didn't do anything when I ran it, but I haven't tried with a .sit file yet, so I'll have to make another floppy to put some on the SE.

I am using a USB HD floppy drive to transfer files. I've tried Etcher, and for some reason it won't see the floppy drive, though everything else sees it just fine. Ciderpress looks like it doesn't actually write the disk images to a disk, it just creates the image files.  I can't see any way...

Thanks for the replies. Floppyemu is nice, but very expensive.  I have some SD readers for other computers, but they were much cheaper. HFSExplorer looks like it's read only, though there is another product that claims to write (HFS+) I'll check the links on that other page and see if I can...

I've recently acquired a classic Mac SE/30 (and a SCSI CD drive which I can't get working at the moment).  I've put a new battery in it and fixed the floppy drive, and given it a clean.  The problem now is that I can't actually get any software on it. Everything I have downloaded on my PC is...
