The Apple Profile Manager "Program" diskette image on MacGUI vault is
completely blank. Couldn't find any way to report the problem.

Two ways:
1 - register and send a PM to DogCow
2 - go to the "contact us" page and leave a comment about the Vault

I do not know if you will get a response because the Vault is no longer updated.

Anyway there should be a copy on Asimov.

I have a PPM disk image for UCSD 1.2 (also works with 1.3), it should be the patched version because I used it with emulators, specifically I was able to create a Pascal area in my HD image with AppleWin.

I didn't realize it was dead.

Where can I find this "patched" version? Did you upload it anywhere?

I'm maintaining the site, fixing any problems that I discover or that are
brought to my attention. I'm just not adding large batches of files any
more.

http://macgui.com/downloads/?file_id=23961
This is an image of one of my own disks, so I can always go back and
re-image it with ADTPro or in the mean time, I could replace the file with
someone else's working disk image.

When you're logged in, there's a line of text at the bottom left of the
information screen for the file, and in red is a "Report it." link. It's
right above the boldface text that says "You may be interested in these
files".

That page and some others should be redesigned to increase usability and
contrast. I apologize for that.

Thanks, Dave. I reported the file using the link you mention. The copy on
line is 143k of null bytes.

Thanks. That's not the first time that there's been a disk image that's
entirely zeros. I should write a script to check for them.

If someone should ask, here are the changes to delete the part that verifies for a true Profile hard disk.

Thank you Antoine Vignau for the original.

I will patch the file (unless you send it to me, Marco) and I will upload it at the Apple 2 Documentation Project

The PPM disks are also at http://mirrors.apple2.org.za/Apple%20II%20Documentation%20Pr oject/Peripherals/Hard%20Drives/Apple%20ProFile/Disk%20Image s/

This is the original source for the disk:

http://pascal.hansotten.com/uploads/ucsd/diskimagesvarious/A ppleII/PPMPATCH.SDK

Please let me open a little off topic:
Can you explain to me what is the use of the other images? I mean Apple Pascal Basics Integer & Applesoft II - 680-0002-00 and 01.
Have you a link to the documentation?

TY

Thanks for the link, Marco.
The last digits are for the release version, I don't know what has changed but my idea, as always, is to preserve all versions.

I have not checked my real library for the documentation, I will do later.

I do not know the use of the other images, sorry.
I've searched through my accessible documentation and found nothing.
