David,
I've been tryingto use ADTPro 0.2.4 to transfer disk images from my
Mac to the Apple IIGS I now have without any success. I'm using the
exact same setup I had on my IIe, in fact I moved the SSC from the IIe
to the IIGS and version 0.2.3 runs fine on the IIGS. However when I
try to use 0.2.4 I get a message saying "garbage received from host"
and it's garbage on the screen when I try to do a directory of the Mac
from the IIGS. Any ideas what's going on? ADTPro is a great program
and I enjoy using it to be able to transfer disk images back to real
disks.
Thanks in advance,
Dean
