The TI-84 Plus is one of Texas Instruments' more popular graphing calculators, and there is a wide range of applications and games available to install on it. The TI-84 Plus is completely compatible with all functions of its predecessor, the TI-83 Plus, giving it a huge library of possibilities. The TI-84 Plus is equipped with a USB port, making it a snap to install games and other applications.
Download the TI Connect software to your computer from the Texas Instruments website. Double-click on the file once it has been downloaded to install the software on your computer.
Turn on your TI-84 Plus calculator and plug the mini-USB cable into both the TI-84 Plus and your computer.
Download the ION software from the TICalc website. Once the download is complete, extract the contents of the file to a directory on your desktop. If any dialogue boxes pop up during the extraction process, select “Yes.” Once all files have been extracted, select all of the files, right-click on them, and select “Send to TI Device.”
Press the 'PRGM' button on your TI-84 Plus and execute the ION file, which should be the first file listed. You will receive a confirmation message saying “ION installed.”
