Total Posts: 4 | ok i am having major problems with TI Connect connecting to my calculater. It worked once and never worked again.
Steps i do:
1. Turn on Computer
2. Log in
3. Plug in calc with USB ( i turn it on of course )
4. Start TI Connect
5. I press connect calc but it doesnt read the USB.
It worked once before and never again, i have tried reinstalling the program and repairing it but nothing works.
Is there any other program that connects to your calculator? and if so what is it?
Or could someone give me some tips or troubleshooting ideas to fix this problem
Thanks,
Honeo

Edit | Dumb question... your calc was turned on, right? Just makin' sure...
Anyways, what kind of calculator do you have? It would be a bit more helpful if we had that information. |

Edit | What cable are you using? (Direct usb to usb, or the usb silver cable?)
If it is the direct, I don't know what to tell you except get a silver cable. If it is the silver... shoot it. no, don't... :P |

Everybody should probably e-mail TI and complain. |

Total Posts: 214 | You know what i found wrong with mine? There was a piece of lead jammed in the USB place. It guess, it was jammed so badly that when I like, kept jamming it into the USB area, it kept chipping away at the inside...yeah. After like 50 tires, I found out there was a piece of lead in it. How funny. You could've damaged the inside of the USB cord...otherwise just reinstall the USB cord. EH? *CANADIANS SUCK!* |

I take offense to that as being half-French Canadian and having gone to the country twice and loving it. :img03: |
