Apple II

Disk ][ Front Panel

Just wondering...

 

Does anyone know what manufacturing method was used for printing/painting/cutting the embossed aluminium overlay on the disk ][ drives ?

Does any such service still exist? And is affordable.

 

I know Maceffects are doing new labels for apple ]['s themselves but the disk ][ seems to have a different finish.

Cheers

Dave

Apple IIe / IIc mouse

While learning more about me new enhanced IIe, my attebntion turned to mice and what works with the IIe. From what I can tell, it seems like I need a mouse card and of course a mouse. Are the IIe and IIc mice interchangeable. The things I read lead me to belive this is true, but I'm just looking for comformation or correction.

 

Thasnks all!

Trying to enable serial console on Windows Subsystem for Linux

I am trying to enable the serial console on Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), if that is possible. I've got Ubuntu running in Windows, and MODEM.MGR on my Apple //e. The screen and minicom commands work, as does ADTPro, so the PC and Apple are definitely talking to each other. (I am using a USB-to-DB25 cable connected to my //e's Super Serial Card.)

However, when I try to figure out how to create a serial console on the //e, the guides I've found don't help. On the Raspberry Pi, it is a very simple process. You just use this command:

Mainboard identification

Hi All 

 

Apologies for the number of noob questions, but I have been looking for some time and struggling to ID my Apple IIe mainboard. I think it is a REV A based on the detail in the picture below, but I am aware some REV B boares were marked -A.

if anybody can definitively ID I would be very grateful, thanks.

Apple IIe Extended 80-Column Text Card for AUX - Has anybody remade this?

I'm trying to get hold of an Extended 80-Column Text Card for the AUX slot of my IIe, and was wondering if anybody had made a modern day recreation of it available as open source? It seems simple enough that somebody might have done.

I'm still searching, and can find the card on eBay, but there seem to be none in the UK, only the US, so I thought if there had been a recreation, maybe I could build my own.

 

Thanks in advance :)

Newbie here saying “Hi”

Hey everyone. I just posted a question but realized I forgot to introduce myself.

I grew up with Apple IIe's in grade school but never owned one. I always wanted one as a kid and now I have an enhanced IIe! I'm new to all this, so I probably have lots of silly questions, but I'm looking forward to learning lots and making some new friends.

Trouble printing from Appleworks 1986 to Epson LX-80

I recently got a new Apple IIe Enhanced. Everything was working perfectly. For fun, I started using Appleworks to keep my daily journal. The computer came with copies of Appleworks disks that were set up with the printer the computer came with; an Epson LX-80. Everything worked fine when I went to print. Of course, that wasn't good enough for me, I had a newer copy of Applworks from 1986 (The original was from 1983 or 85), so I copied that onto the old disks, not thinking much about the printer. I could just set it up again, right? 

 

WRONG!

Apple IIGS ADB Port Still Not Working

Hi all, I've started two previous forum topics for this subject about two months back but still have been unable to solve the issue.I've been away for a couple months and caught up in other things in my personal life so I haven't had any time to work on this issue until now. I figured I'd round up everything I've troubleshooted from my previous forum posts, and put them all here, in hopes that I can get some new eyes on this issue.
