Hello,

As I see you've got a Mac,

ADFS allows you to mount apple II disk images in the Mac OS 7,8,9, and
X.

To transfer files from the mac to the apple II, I'd recommend using
Gerard Putter's virtual II:
<http://www.xs4all.nl/~gp/VirtualII>

-Virtual II i's a fantastic Apple II emulator,
-Virtual II allows for "mounting" any Mac folder as a DOS or ProDOS
volume on the Apple II.
-Virtual II includes Paul Guertin's Mac version of ADT called A2V2.
With this you can recreate disk image files sent via the Mac's serial
port to the Apple II (needs a SuperSerial card installed in tha Apple
II).
-Or, "SAVE" whatever to a sound aiff file, connect the Mac's headphone
output to the Apple II cassette input, play the AIFF file and "LOAD" it
in the Apple II.

To fix the incorrect file types, use PRODOSIFIER:
