Ok, a while back, for no particular reason, my OS in my calc went from 1.15 to 1.12. I tried installing newer versions of the OS, but whenever i try to do it, an error message comes up saying:

Cannot transfer the application to the connected TI device. A certificate is required for a successful transfer.

I know my link software is installed correctly. so does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks

Umm...there's no way your OS can go to 1.12 without you physically resending it to your calc. Anyway, does your calc powerup right now at all? If so, what version is it reporting, 1.12? And lastly, which model is your calc and which OS you're trying to send. Please answer these Q's to give us an idea of what's going on. We'll try to go from there. As with certificate, its built into your calc's rom and there's no way to delete of change it.

Well, it IS possible to screw up your certificate, but not without trying really, really, hard to do that.

Certificates are supposed to just keep track of your non-free Flash Apps, it shouldn't be affecting your attempt to flash the OS. If nothing else, e-mail ti-cares@ti.com.

Well, i emailed TI, and they told me to try to get the OS from someone else's calc. Didnt work. So is there anything else i should try? Could i send it into TI or something to be fixed? I puchased my calc in 2002, so im not sure if the warranty is expired.

Contact TI and see if they would replace it. They might do that as one of my friends had his replaced after warranty. Tho, they might charge you some money for that but it'll be much less than you'd spend on a new calc anyway. One way or another they'll let you know if they'll do it for free or not once you email their support center at the email listed in the above post. Emailing their support is free so you won't lost anything by doing that.

If it's after the warranty, TI generally charges a $50 replacement fee. Which is, like Z mentioned, cheaper than buying a new calculator.
