Hi All
I have a friend who's just purchased a new macbook pro and wishes to transfer her old word 98 files(108MB worth) from her power mac 7200/90 with 7.6.1 installed.
Im trying to help her out here and trying to network them, have googled everywhere.
Im now stuck at the point on the old powermac of opening chooser, selecting apple talk, (i know 10.6. doesnt support this) and where it says select server, your supposed to have a box where you can input the ip address of the new mbp,allegedly bypassing appletalk, this however is not here.
Does anyone know of any other way of transferring the files(have tried to email them, but 3 files 86kb in total took over 1 min) floppy disk is last resort. the hard disk is the old scsi type so cant even take it out and put it in a cradle, would really like to get it on the network and transfer that way if possible
Have also looked into uploading them to the cloud, but it only has internet explore v4.5 for mac installed and just wont load any modern web page
Also there is no usb on this machine so thats out also
