Book scans

Submitted by billw on January 21, 2013 - 11:20pm

I've scanned several Apple II books recently with more to come. Is there a good place to contribute/share these? Asimov?

I'm sure some - maybe all - have already been scanned by somebody else, but I'm not sure where to look.

The current batch is:

A //e lives on in perfect condition!

Submitted by AjaxOfQWERTY on January 21, 2013 - 11:10am

-Christmas Morning, 2012

I see my eyes on a gift in a red bag. Mom lets me
pick a special gift and a normal one between a number
count to 10. I pick a high number of my choice and
she let me open the red bag to my suprise, I see my
glory in many ways I have never seen before. A //e in perfect condition!

Opening my gift gave me a complete set. A monitor, disk drive, including 2 disks to start with!
Moving it upstairs turning it on put the machine in a glorified beep, booting up to PRODOS. Also played Oregon Trail.

The Big Score! Mountain Expansion Chassis!

Submitted by gsmcten on January 20, 2013 - 7:50pm

The Apple II Gods were smiling this afternoon when I went up to eBay.
I went to my usual Saved Searches and when I reached the Apple II saved search I could not believe my eyes. A Mountain 8 Slot Expansion Chassis, with the Controller Card, Cables, and THE MANUAL. Buy It Now $499.00.
I bought it. Who wouldn't? I did not know how long it had been listed, but it could not have been for very long.

The good news? When it arrives, I plan on scanning in the manual and taking lots of photographs.

Using TransWarp with RamWorks III

Submitted by k4lmp on January 20, 2013 - 6:00pm

I recently bought a TransWarp card for my Apple //e Platinum. I have a RamWorks III card installed in the Aux slot. The recommended slot for the TransWarp is slot 3. Can I use the TransWarp in slot 3, and still have the Ramworks III card in the Aux? I have searched, and found nothing. From what I have read, if you have a card in the Aux slot, then, slot 3 should be empty. Thanks.

Submitted by dani9678 on January 15, 2013 - 3:06pm

I was wondering if I could use an apple II emulator and a 1.2MB 5-1/4" drive on a PC to format and copy software onto the disks to use on my clone?

Disk drive is now going CUCKOO

Submitted by AjaxOfQWERTY on January 14, 2013 - 9:47pm

I own an Apple IIe (1984 enhanced version) along with a few cards such as ram expansion, super serial, mouse, and disk controller. The bad thing is that my drive has a few symptoms behind. First thing that shows that it does not go straight to whatever disk is in there and second, is that I open the drive cleaning the under of drive lock and do a boot again. Reads, but crashes certainly. ProDos would display the unable to run PRODOS message, and DOS 3.3 would make the certain drive grinding noise when trying to recalibrate. My dad reseated the card, blew the drive with his mouth.

Help for a RC Systems Slotbuster II Card

Submitted by gsmcten on January 14, 2013 - 7:58pm

Good evening all,

I found a great deal on an RC Systems Slotbuster II.
The only problem is that it did not come with a manual.
By any stretch of the imagination, does anyone either have one that I can obtain a copy of, or know of a site that has the manual online?
I am willing to pay a fair price for a copy plus shipping.

Thanks in advance,

Steven (gsmcten) Smile

GeoCalc, GeoPublish, and GeoFile

Does anyone know where I can download these programs? All I could find are demo versions. I thought they became freeware but maybe not.

Using Extended Keyboard II on a IIgs

Submitted by k4lmp on January 6, 2013 - 11:51am

I have aquired an extended keyboard II for my IIgs, and have a couple of questions. It is in great shape, and I only paid $15 for it, and it included a mouse and a long ADB cable, so it was a good deal. I have found a couple of problems, though. The enter key on the numeric keypad works intermittently. I think I might try to take it apart and clean it, any suggestions or tutorials? Another thing is that none of the leds work. It has a caps lock, num lock, and scroll lock led. None of them seem to work.
