<p>I got the TI-89 Titanium. </p>

<p>I am using it for AP Calc and AP stats. Only I need to download all these apps before I can actually use it for Stats. </p>

<p>When I go to the TI website, I sign in, download the apps. They download, but once in my computer, this little annoying thing comes up telling me: "Windows can't open the file. Would you like to browse the Internet to open the file blah blah"</p>

<p>I put "yes", then it goes online and tells me the same thing- that it can't open the file. </p>

<p>I need the Apps REALLY bad for statistics. Otherwise, my ti-89 is useless for that class. </p>

<p>Please help me!!! Did anyone have this problem??? Why can't Windows open up the Apps? </p>

<p>I have a fake version of Windows XP. Can that have anything to do with anything???</p>

<p>PLEASE HELP!</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>That probably has something to do with it. Fake as in you stole it, or fake like it's a knock off?</p>

<p>For my 83, it came along with a CD and a cable. Do you have all of it?</p>

<p>Actually, I was able to download apps just fine back when I had a fake copy of Windows. Well, Windows told me it was fake. I don't think it actually was. Anyway, you have to have the TI software installed on your computer. Otherwise, you won't be able to open the files.</p>

<p>i suppose someone deleted my helpful and insulting comment :b</p>

<p>if all else fails, get a link cable and hook it up to your friends calculator and do a transfer</p>

<p>Why are you trying to open the files? Why in the world would Windows know how to open binaries for a graphing calculator?</p>

<p>Why not just get the TI software and then go ahead and transfer them to your calculator?</p>
