I have a floppy disk from an Apple IIe that contains data I want to recover. How would I do that, or who would do that for me for a fee?

If it's DOS 3.3 based, you may be better off picking up an ImageWriter II and a SuperSerial card to print the data off, then scan it into a more modern system. If the disk is ProDOS formatted, you can use Copy II Plus and copy it to an 800K floppy, which then can be inserted into any originally floppy equipped Mac for recovery. That includes modified revision A iMacs.
The original iMacs can have a floppy drive connector added to the logic board, which lets them access 800K, 1.4MB, and PC formatted 720k/1.44MB floppies with any manual-inject Mac floppy drive.
If I still had my IIgs, I could help. But, got rid of it a few months ago. @nathall might be able to help out, since he's also in WA and has a few Apple II systems. | | 1 |
