As is most always stated here, Ciderpress is the best way
to back up CF cards from most of the storage devices used
in Apple II's. I think, don't quote me, that Ciderpress is
also able to tell you checksum errors of ProDOS file system
files, which will tell you where your errors are.
Of course, knowing where the error is already, you can now
discover the name of the file that contains said error and
repair, or remove it. Then, you should Volume copy the CF
card's partitions to image, reformat and replace them.
Good Luck,

What am I missing? I have tried to format the card using Copy II+, Mac
OS 10.4 and Windows XP. None of the formatting programs will let me into
the card to do anything. I don't need to copy any files from it. I would
like to re-format it completely.
