    Making Music with IIGS - What Do I Need?

    For midi composition I'm not sure you'd need additional hardware - though that may provide some limitation to the sound set - I don't know much about the IIgs's hardware.  However, I can't believe one of these programs wouldn't let you compose - and given the audio output, that would allow you...

    7100 recapping

    Are there only 25 16V 47uF?  Nothing else on the 7100 board?

    How to create OS 6 floppy in Yosemite

    While it might be the connectors or capacitors, the drive may also have just died from striction - which is over time and use (and these things are old and used).   I think, unfortunately, the latest version of OS X to allow writing to floppies was Snow Leopard. If you figure out how to write...

    Apple II Daughter Boards (Z-Engine / Grappler Plus)

    To my first, question Apple II Oasis emulator can probably do this.  However, it only runs 32-bit, so I'll try it later.

    P560/CC Screen Issue

    Contact cleaning helped but not totally.  So I rechecked the board and C12 wasn't secure on one of its leads, so I resoldered that.  Then the SCSI totally died, so I looked again and C5 was missing [no explanation for that; it was there before I redid C12].  Mostly fine now; if symptoms recur...

    Apple II Daughter Boards (Z-Engine / Grappler Plus)

    Hmm okay. Thanks. Wait there's a logic issue here.  I will need to create new images, meaning I will need to initialize them and manipulate them in an Apple CP/M environment, no?  Is there an emulator? 2) This doesn't per se address the problem which is that either it's not recognizing the...

    IIgs Networking Boot Disk

    No I know; and the guy who helped me with the mod indicated that removing the HD sensor would force it into low density mode.  But as I said I don't think that matters, I would guess this machine cannot support it.  I think I misread this post, which was where I was getting the 2.6; you need to...

    Apple II Daughter Boards (Z-Engine / Grappler Plus)

    Is it possible I've been misinterpreting what those ALS images are?  I posted the archive in the first post.  There are three - the only one that actually boots is ALS CPM; one of them appears (after unzipping) to be almost 17mb which is clearly a glitch, or empty space or something).  But each...

    IIgs Networking Boot Disk

    Darn.  I was under the distinct impression you didn't need a driver...  I was having trouble making that logical leap, and this would explain why.  Since that'd be the only real utility, screw it.  [Either way I figured that solution wouldn't work for the IIgs.  Interesting that the adapters...

    Apple II Daughter Boards (Z-Engine / Grappler Plus)

    [This is all done on Normal speed, because I read a note to that effect - is Normal Speed 1mhz? I tried it on my IIe also to no effect, but I'll note that ALS's software seems to be too large for 5.25" floppies, which is really my only option on my IIe anyway - plus 128k of RAM.  I'm afraid...

    Apple II Daughter Boards (Z-Engine / Grappler Plus)

    I have it in 4 although 7 is set by default to "Your Card" and since you can only choose Your Card/AppleTalk for Slot 7, I'm stuck with that on "Your Card" and I've changed Slot 4 to "Your Card." I use DOS 3.3 on my IIe but I didn't realize it would run on IIgs.  So here's a question...  It...

    Apple II Daughter Boards (Z-Engine / Grappler Plus)

    Hey Elfen, I've revived this trial on a IIgs; I read the Z80 card needs to be in slot 4 but I've gotten a slew of symptoms with that (or in slot 7, for instance). I came back to your comments and now I'm curious how I can use DOS 3.3 formatting on IIgs.  I know it's a file translation option on...

    Where can I find the first OS for Macintosh Plus?

    If you don't specifically need to buy it, it's here: http://www.rolli.ch/MacPlus/Archives/ZIP/Disk300.zip.  And the software bundles should also be here.  I've also had an original copy I inherited a long time ago with a Plus that I can image if all of that for some reason doesn't work; links...

    IIgs Networking Boot Disk

    Hey Gorgonops, btw, I finally got the Ramdisk idea running yesterday... It's totally impractical as you noted.  It was pretty cool, though.  Finder and networking actually don't need that much - probably just over 800k ironically.  I had several hundred k left over on a 1,248kB ramdisk. I do...

    Etherport SE

    I might have overcomplicated that.  It would appear to work - and I say appear because I don't actually have a DA-15 to RJ45 transceiver yet and then I may need a hub; I forget if I have one. It seems that you cannot install NSI or the drivers conflict (probably particularly AppleTalk).  If you...

    Etherport SE

    *But the PDS slot is different on the SE/30, so that isn't going to work.  So it's either earlier drivers or major upgrades.

    Etherport SE

    That was basically my question, which is odd though because both cards say "SE."  So I think it's purely a software issue.  SE/30 also uses PDS.  Not sure about the ROM, but since driver issues are widely reported for this set of cards, I assume it needs drivers. The System is barebones...

    SE PRAM Battery Location

    takimoto - do you have an axial battery on the other side or a holder?  Techknight I'm not sure I follow - is that what you meant or are there just leaded and unleaded axials?  Or some third thing? [And either way, in that style, like takimoto's, there's only one hole on the one side, so it's...
