Is there any software for reading Apple ][ 3 inch disks
on a Mac?

Check out apple File Exchange.  I have used it to read/write to/from
Apple ][gs diskettes.  I don't know what OSs it will work with.

AFE comes bundled with system tools 5.0 and 6.0.  You should be able to
get it free from Compuserve or your Apple dealer.

New macs come with a program called the "Apple File Exchange" (or something
like that :-) which will convert different formats.  It requires 
"configuration files" to tell it about different kinds of files (if you
wanted to convert an Appleworks spreadsheet to Excel, for example).  As
furnished, there are only a bare minimum of these on the disk.
