More Information
Middle school, high school, and college students use TI-89 Titanium graphing calculators to plot functions, analyze numerical data, solve complex equations, and perform other mathematical operations. The TI-89 Titanium uses its own unique OS, which can be updated when the calculator is connected to a computer that has Texas Instruments TI Connect installed.
Most often, to update a TI-89 Titanium calculator's OS, users simply click the Update button found in TI Connect. However, in certain rare scenarios, a user may have to manually update their TI-89 Titanium's OS. In those instances, the user will receive an 89U file from Texas Instruments, which they must manually install on their TI-89 Titanium.
How to open an 89U file
After receiving an 89U file from Texas Instruments, open the TI Device Explorer found within TI Connect. Then, drag your 89U file into TI Device Explorer. This should prompt TI Device Explorer to begin updating your TI-89 Titanium calculator.
