Transferring Programs to Your TI-89 Titanium and TI-84 PlusThe TI-89 Titanium and TI-84 Plus have similar methods for transferring programs, mainly due to the USB port on the newer calculators.
Requirements
In order to transfer programs to your TI-89 Titanium or TI-84 Plus you will need to install the TI Connect program that comes on the CD with your calculator. If you do not have the CD, you will need to download the program from the TI Website.
Also, you will need a link cord. This cord is different from the older calculators, and is just a standard Mini B USB cable. Both calculators generally come with a USB cord in the package, but you can also buy one from Amazon
Installing TI Connect
To begin, leave your calculator disconnected from your computer. You will need to insert the CD that came with your calculator, and follow the directions. If you don’t have the CD, install TI Connect now.
Once TI Connect is installed, you may connect your calculator. If you are running Windows, your computer should tell you it is installing the drivers for the new device (your calculator).
Running TI Connect
Go ahead and run TI Connect by clicking on one of the shortcuts created, or go into the Applications folder if you are running Mac OSX. You should see a window si
milar to the one on the right (click the image to expand it). Select the “TI DeviceExplorer” button to bring up the Explorer window. If your calculator is plugged in correctly, TI Connect will detect the device.
If your calculator is successfully detected, click on it in the list and press “Select”. A list of variables will show up, along with your calculator model.
If your calculator is not successfully detected, try uninstalling TI Connect, then install it again.
Using the DeviceExplorer
Now, unzip the games from the ZIP file that they were contained in. There is usually 1 8XP file, and one TXT readme file. You can unzip the files with WinZip, 7 ZIP (free), or with Windows XP SP2 or later (this includes Windows Vista).
After the files are unzipped, drag all of the 8XP files into the TI DeviceExplorer window to begin the transfer.

I downloaded Super Mario on my Ti-84 plus Silver Edition and it glitches pretty bad, but when i transferred it to a friend the graphics didnt glitch so how can i fix the problem?
That is simple what you have to do is download the MirageOS app to your calculator then open that app in the main folder should be mario you pick that than start playing
how do i stop mty mario game from glitching
k
you looking at this page right now do you have any questions?
yeah same thing for me as stereohead, also when i tried to enter in all of the super mario land files it gave me an error saying something about each one of the levels having to have files replaced or something
The same thing happened to me, I cannot play any games on my TI-84 PLus Silver Edition Calculator, I press enter and nothing, what do I did wrong?
Have you tried playing all these through mirageos. First click on the program only to install it. It should happen automatically. Then go to mirageos in apps and click into the folder and click on the game and you should be able to play it
I can’t even manage to put the ion or the mirageos program on my TI 84+
it keeps sending the message:
Errors occurred while sending {program name}. A distribution list, containing the device(s) which returned an error, was created for each file.
What do I do?
when i want to open pacmen i get an error
I’m trying to figure out what to buy. my adviser told me to get a ti89 and it’ll last me through my engineering program and i found one with the cable and hook ups for $75 or one without for $50. are the hook ups and disk useful enough to be worth it?
Yello, i got this and it says err: undefined when i try to start the program
I download and transferred asteroids but it says the program is archived what do i do
Two questions:
1. Super Mario: I installed MirageOS, put mario8x on my calculator, downloaded the levels which are required (?), but i dont know how where to put the levels :S to start the game
2. Is it possible to play Pokemon on TI84, if yes where can i download it?
Every time i try to download a level for the game, it says the name for this variable is not valid. What do i do?
Hey, it says “a device connected but we cannot communicate with it for some reason.” what does this mean? how can i fix this so it recognizes my device? i’ve unistalled two times…still no dice.
