Transferring files between Mac and Amiga with floppy disc
« on: August 07, 2008, 01:25:34 AM »
What is the correct procedure for transferring files between a Mac and Amiga?
I am using WB3.0 and OSX 10.5.

 have a TEAC USB floppy attached to the Mac.

What discs should I be using?
I have CrossDOS on the miggy.

Many thanks.

That's funny because the reason for doing this was to get the latest version of installer from my Mac onto my miggy so that I could install the Deneb software  :lol:

I have to run out and get some new floppies in a bit, but I did manage to get one to work just now.

I will report back on the details later.

Thanks for all the input guys.

Not more than 5 minutes ago I just transferred some programs from a Mac to an A4000T using Mac format disks and CrossMac; I was surprised to see this thread! I usually get Iomega Floppy Plus USB drives for the Macs since they also can read almost all types of flash media.
 


So your miggy reads Mac formatted floppies eh?
Where could I find Cross Mac?
Are they 1.4Mb or 720kb discs?

That Iomega is a nice piece of kit...never seen that before.
