Ted, Before you start totally panicing, get a copy of Norton Utilities. This lifesaving program has several Disk diagnosis, repair, and restoration/rescue features on it. My Mac crashed once when I was copying to my Zip Disk and when I restarted it was declared unreadable. Norton Utilities fixed it up perfectly, however. It's even worth your money to go out and actually buy the program, since it *will* come in handy for emergency crashes and "Unerases," as well as providing regular backup, defragmenting, and optimizing functions to make and keep your mac running smoothly. Good luck! -matt On Mon, 18 May 1998, Ted Gonzalez wrote: > Date: Mon, 18 MAY 1998 14:08:40 -0400 > From: Ted Gonzalez <sidney@acpub.duke.edu> > Newgroups: duke.general, triangle.general > Subject: Help Re Zip disk > > I had just transferred Mac files to my Zip disk, and the next time I > checked, the files were gone and the Zip disk wasn't Mac formatted > anymore.
