> Please give me ideas about: > 1.What application do I start to transfer data between floppy and hard > drive. From your last post, you are starting your Classic with a floppy disk now, correct? Or is it booting on its own? When it boots up, do you see a hard disk icon on the desktop? Are you trying to copy the boot floppy? > 2.Does a Win formatted floppy work at all? What system version on the Mac? As I recall, I've had my Classic read Windows formatted floppies, yes. You should be able to copy files from one... but it loses the Mac specific resources if it's on a Windows floppy. > 3.Which app formats a floppy. The Finder. Click on the floppy disk, go up to the Special menu, and pick "Erase disk." Alternately, if it doesn't recognize the floppy formatted (i.e., it *can't* read the Windows floppy, the floppy's unformatted, or there's a problem with the floppy) it'll say it can't read the disk and ask you to "initialize" it - in other words, format it. > 4.Where is the Control Panel app? Under the Apple menu. -Eric >--- >Incoming mail is certified Virus Free. >Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com). >Version: 6.0.381 / Virus Database: 214 - Release Date: 8/2/2002 -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
