Title: TiConnect Problems
Post by: qazwsx988 on January 11, 2011, 12:41:36 am
So I have TiConnect v1.6, and it used to send and recieve programs just fine.
Recently, I downgraded my OS from 2.53 to 2.22 b/c of compatibility issues with TiConnect, but now, even though it connected fine the day after, the programs won't transfer, giving me an error message of "connection has been lost" whenever I transfer programs.
Which really sucks because of the new cage match entries I want to try out.

Help?

Try reinstalling TI-Connect.

Have you ever used tiLP? If yes, uninstall both and reinstall only one of them.

Also, don't only uninstall, remove tiLP and tiConnect drivers, they collide with each other.

archive your programs.
Garbage collect.
Clear your ram.

I have to do this every time i connect.

Why not use 2.43 instead of 2.22?
Also, Scout you can have both TiLP and TI-Connect installed at once, since TiLP can use the TI-Connect drivers instead of it's own, but I prefer not doing so.

Really? I always thought the drivers conflicted... x.x

EDIT: OH NOEZ! I AM NOT HELL'S KNIGHT ANYMORE...

I'll try reinstalling it and garbage collecting.
Can someone post a link for 2.43?

Apparently, TI-Connect comes with OS 2.22. O.O

Yeah, I have a CD for a TI-84+SE that has 2.22.

Does the downloadable version on TI website come with 2.22 as well? I wonder if newer 84+ calcs does either? If he bought his calc used then he might have gotten an older CD with OS 2.22 on it.

2.22 was included when I downloaded TI Connect a few moths ago, so I guess TI hasn't bothered to replace it.

Seconded. Once you get TI connect reinstalled upgrade to 2.43 (the most recent before Mathprint was added). 2.22 was a pretty crappy OS from what I've heard.

BrandonW likes to complain about it. Apparently USB support is very buggy.
My TI-Connect install is also packaged with 2.22.

Well, nope, TILP cannot use TI-Connect's drivers, and TI-Connect cannot use TILP's drivers, for both licensing (GPL/proprietary) and functionality/trustworthiness reasons ;)

Yeah, that's what I thought too.

So this is what i did:
Uninstalled TiConnect 1.6.1, reinstalled it.
Doesn't work.
Uninstalled that, reinstalled v.1.6.
Still doesn't work.
Uninstalled that and installed tiLP.
Still doesn't work.
Uninstalled tiLP and Gtk+ and reinstalled tiConnect v 1.6.1.
Still doesn't work.

When I first plug my calc in, it recognizes the drivers and installs them. However, ticonnect doesn't even register that there is a calc plugged into it- it just looks in com1, doesn't give me a usb1 option.
I'm using the black usb cable, and I have OS v2.43.
Tried garbage collecting and ram reset before, still doesn't work.

uninstall ti-connect.
unplug ur calc.

Install ti-connect.
right after you press install, plug your calc in.
This way the drivers and ti-connect install at the same time.

It worked for me.

I have a TIConnect problem to post :(

TIConnect recognizes the device, and can screencapture and stuff like that. It just can't send anything.

When I try sending anything I get one of the two:
1) cannot communicate with the calculator
2) transfer failed. retry may be successful[8C010000]

can anyone help?

I have had problems with TI-Connect not being able to communicate with the TI-84+SE emulator on my calculator. I have downloaded/reinstalled TI-Connect twice and It still doesn't work. anyone have any ideas why not.

whenever i try connecting to it I go to TI-Device Explorer and try to find it. I have my Nspire on with 84+SE keypad in. I have it connected to the computer through a USB extension cable/hub. I do not know what is going wrong please help
