Solved ! Switching the frequency setting of the IIGS from 50 Hz to 60 solve the problem. Now the display is stable. Strange that I have to use a US (NTSC) setting for a EU Philips tv ???

Hello there, I have an Apple IIGS connected to a lcd tv via the scart (peritel) socket. With other computers (for example Apple IIe + Chat Mauve or CPC6128) this socket is ok. I get the the subd15 to scart cable from England on Ebay. The problem is that sometime the tv loose the vertical...

Fixed ! On the right small daughter board the ohmmeter show strange measurements (not short but not open, short if pressing strong, open if just touch etc...) for a track between the square black component (I assume a filter) and on of the pad connecting the flat cable to the main keyboard pcb...

Thanks for the advices. Reflowing the adb connectors welding and/or trying to move the mouse plug give no result. The problem is still here. A test with a Apple Extended Keyboard II and the same mouse show everything is ok so the problem is for sure in the keyboard.

Hello, I have some problems getting a mouse working on a Apple IIGS. The keyboard has two adb connectors one to the left, another to the right. First I notice that if I connect the keyboard to the cpu with the left connector it works. He dont work if I use the right connector. Its my first...

Hi, You know the difference between a FILE and a FOLDER ? You should drag and drop the layout to the FILE named "system", not into the folder. Regards. Philippe

Thanks for the suggestion ! The serial com start only if the external board receive first a $7F. After that the behaviour is normal and zterm should do the job. Its a good idea. A binary file with one byte...

Hi, I try to get a connection between a 8 bits system and a Mac Plus (7.0.1) using modem port. I have made a cable which "should" work, adapting rs232 to rs422... I have no handshake and usually 3 wires are ok for communicate. The basic problem I have is that before to talk the 8 bits...

You are welcome.

No. Open your system folder, then you will see a FILE named "System", not a folder, a FILE. It is visible on your previous post just over the "Wheel of Fortunes Preferences" file. Then drag and drop the keyboard layout file on this FILE named "System". You have not to drag and drop in a folder...

You must boot from another system that the one where you want add azerty layout (use a copy or something like that). Then drag and drop the layout file to this non working system FILE, not the system folder. This file is inside the system folder. Philippe

Hi, Read this for keyboard layout installation : https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?threads/mac-plus-6-0-8-change-keyboard-layout.41812/#post-453416 Regards. Philippe

I find a solution. Original files probably come from an Unix system. Msdos EDIT can handle it correctly but not AFE. So I open it with Msdos EDIT, simply rewrite it (there is a slight change in the file size) and then transfer with AFE as text file. After adding a resource files open correctly...

Hello there, Sorry if this basic question has already been discussed here... I have a .for file which is an old fortran source. This file open properly into msdos 'edit'. With Apple File Exchange I can read the floppy with my Powerbook 100 but then the file look very strange... Obviously...

Hello there, I have a Powerbook 100 fully recapped (including screen and inverter). Everything is ok including the screen but the brightness control (the one at the right) is not working at all. Turning it dont change anything in the display. Is this situation also related to R257 ? Thanks for...

Yes I think so.

Hi, I have two bluescsi. One with DB25 connector directly powered by the Plus (with a diode) and another one with a IDC50 connector powered by a external hard drive power supply. Both works well but be careful. If you try to use more than one image at a time the boot disk need an scsi driver <...

I reply myself... It is possible to drag and drop a keyboard layout onto a non working system FILE. After that in the control panel this layout is selectable. Keyboard layout can be found here : https://archive.info-mac.org/_Configuration/keyboards.hqx

Hello there ! I have a Mac Plus with a french layout keyboard. I have made my own boot floppy disk with Minimal Mac Plus 6.0.8 system (no network, no printer etc...). Now what should I add to this boot disk so I can change the keyboard layout from us to french ? I have the Macpack disk image...

Hello, I have replaced the internal scsi drive of a Powerbook 160 with a Bluescsi. A have a SD memory with 3 active images that works very well into a standard Bluescsi (the one for scsi flat cable) connected to the Powerbook scsi expansion port. If I put this SD memory into the internal...
