I have a TI-84+. It seems to be plugged in okay, but i will check to make sure.
Edit: Just checked with my caliper and it's .7mm too wide to fit, i will try to cut some off.

Glad you have the right tools to check that sort of thing. 
For future reference, please Edit your post instead of double-posting, if it has been fewer than twenty-four hours since your last post. I merged your posts for you.
Okay, i've trimmed some off but still it won't do anything

And the calculator's cursor continues to blink normally, without staying on longer than usual? I will give your code a try later and see if we can sleuth out the issue.
Okay, thanks for the tip about the jack, now my IR remote accessoire works!

That's great! After you Introduce Yourself, if you didn't already get a chance to do so, would you mind posting a Your Projects topic with more information about this project? It sounds intriguing.

After all your help and quick responses, i think the least i could do is do those things.
Oh and by the way, you don't need these three lines:
Code:
void resetLines();
static int par_put(uint8_t *data, uint32_t len);
static int par_get(uint8_t *data, uint32_t len);
(at the top)

What compiler are you using?
Did you have a chance to try the code?

I'm afraid it totally slipped my mind. I need to start setting up my display for Maker Faire anyway, so I'll pull out my Arduino and try flashing your program.

Did you try it? I'm curious...
I finally got around to hacking a bootloader onto my two clean Atmega328P chips and giving this a test. The problem was something very small and silly that I should have noticed from the beginning: you weren't receiving the ACK, and if the ACK doesn't get sent successfully, the calculator ignores the preceding packet. Replace your loop() function with this:
Code: void loop(){
uint8_t A [4] = {0x23,0x87,0x9A,0x00}; //packet for sending capital A
resetLines();
par_put(A, 4); //send the packet
// get the ACK
par_get(A,4);
if (A[1] == 0x56) {
par_get(A,4);
}
delay(2000);
}
Thank you so much, it works now!

You're most welcome. Please keep me/us posted on the progress of your project, of course!
'Course i will. My project is going to be similar to
hackniac's BlueTILP.

Funny you should mention that; I have a note to myself to get in touch with Hackniac (nemo?) to publish that project there. It seems to me that nemo was trying to do a transparent link, though, where it seems like you're injecting specific packets? Or is that just a proof-of-concept?
Here is some faster link routine. This uses external interrupts. You need assembled code to communicate with this though. Atm it's receive only, but I'm gonna implement sending data soon. It's very similar to I2C, but with it's interrupt driven.
Code: // MACROs
#define PIN2L !(PIND & 0B00000100)
#define PIN3L !(PIND & 0B00001000)
#define CLR(x,y) (x&=(~(1<<y)))
#define SET(x,y) (x|=(1<<y))
byte get;
byte bitCount = 8;
void bitTransceive()
{
get >>= 1;
if (PIN2L)
{
get |= 128;
}
bitCount--;
}
void setup()
{
CLR(DDRD,2); //pinMode 2 is input
CLR(DDRD,3); //pinMode 3 is input
Serial.begin(115200);
attachInterrupt(1,bitTransceive,FALLING);
}
void loop()
{
if (!bitCount){
// Pull down clock line to make sure the calculator does not send while the atmega
// is processing the incoming data.
SET(DDRD,3);
Serial.println(get);
get = 0;
bitCount = 8;
CLR(DDRD,3);
// Released the clockline.
}
}
Does this follow the TI link protocol, or a proprietary scheme?
