Joystick for Apple IIe

Submitted by retroaudio on August 2, 2011 - 1:31pm

Hi,

I have looked at older references to these but I was wondering what the current state of play was.

Is there a joystick I can buy easily which will work with the IIe or is it possible to modify an existing Atari type? I found a link on the forum for conversion info but the link is no longer valid.

Thanks,

Richard.

Hello! Apple kit on it's way!

Submitted by retroaudio on August 2, 2011 - 8:03am

Hi to All,

I have finally got round to buying some Apple IIe kit. This was the machine I could not afford in the eighties so at the time, I marched into Dixon's with 150 quid and bought an Atari 130XE with a 1050 disk drive which kept me going for a few years! Having just re invested in Atari again my thoughts turned to Apple. I was pleased to find that it was possible to create original floppies from images (just like Atari) as I do not like emulators, and even more surprised that the software was free!

help getting my IIe running

Submitted by chas0000 on July 25, 2011 - 9:42pm

I just purchased an Apple IIe from craigslist for only $15. It looks to be in great shape. I am looking to fix it for fun, and possibly selling it later on. It came with what I believe to be everything. CPU, monitors, 2 floppy disc drives,Family Feud disc, and what I believe to be an audio cable. It didn't have the aux cable to connect to the monitor but I had one laying around the house.

It powers up just fine, but the picture looks pretty glitchy. After a while, it eventually says SYSTEM OK. If I press any keys it goes back to the glitchy screen.

Amazingly novice question about apple IIe and daisy chaining

Submitted by snowwhite on July 21, 2011 - 9:49pm

I have a question about how daisy-chaining works on the apple IIe. I have two apple A9M0107 5.25 inch drives and one 5.25 inch drive card with cable plugged into what I believe is drive 3. However, when I try linking the other drive to the back of the first drive after plugging the first drive into the back of the computer, only the first drive lights up.
