Two solutions :- First, the Apple IIC to Imagewritter II cable can be used to connect the two serial ports of the computers. Files can then be transferred using a communication program on each machine. Secondly, if the Apple IIc has a 3 1/2 " prodos drive attached, then the Mac's can read this format using the Apple file exchange program (included with the system files).
