003- I've heard of ADT and ap2222pc. How do these
packages work for transferring Apple II disks between an
Apple II and a PC?
Yesterday I downloaded ap2222pc.zip written by some guy in Hong Kong. It
copies whole Apple disk images over to the PC, or PC to Apple, or individual
files back and forth!
You buy a 25-pin male parallel port connector and two 8-pin DIP sockets
from Radio Shack. He gives the wiring diagram for connecting 9 wires between
them. You type in a 6502 assembly program on your apple at address 300. Save
the program, shut things off, hook up the wire from your PC printer port to the
Apple Game Controller socket, turn them on (Apple first, then the PC), and run
his programs.
It works great! I've already made 26 disk images from my old Apple disks.

ADT (Apple Disk Transfer) lets you transfer 5.25" 16-sector A2 disks from
your Apple II to your PC. It will also transfer standard 5.25" .dsk disk image
files from the PC to a formatted 5.25" diskette on the Apple II. The connection
is a fairly simple NULL modem link between serial ports using standard cables
and adapters.
Transferred disks can be DOS 3.3, ProDOS, Pascal, ... . However, ADT will
not correctly transfer most copy protected disks to the PC; and, it will not
transfer ProDOS-order (usually .po) disk image files to the Apple II.
Note: Several limitations seem to be overcome in a newly released (2006) ADTPro
version which runs under ProDOS.
ADT is a pair of dedicated telecom transfer programs-- one for Apple II
running under DOS 3.3 and one for the other computer (almost always a PC; but,
there is also a version for Mac). The PC-side program is available in a vesion
for Windows 95, 98, Me (adt.exe) and one for MS-DOS (now named "adtdos.exe").
There are several versions of the Apple II-side program in order fit
different models and serial interfaces:
ADTssc- The current version (1.22) of 'standard ADT'. It requires that an Apple
Super Serial Card or compatible card be installed or that the Apple II be a //c
or IIc+ (which have SSC-compatible serial ports).
ADTcc- ADT modified to work with many, mostly older, non-Super Serial Card
serial interfaces. (Current version is 1.21.)
ADTgs- Currently at v.91, this is ADT modified to work with the IIgs modem port.
(ADTgs will, at present, do only PC-to-Apple II disk image transfers.)
