Are they calculator type files? You can't send stuff like .txt, .doc, or .zip files to the calculator.

TiLP will, if you don't like TI Connect. But it seems like people have lots of trouble getting it to work for some reason...

I think you need to get a different driver for TiLP to work with the silverlink, and then it doesn't work with TI Connect.

Yes, the drivers for the USB link are different for TiLP and TI Connect. Causes some frustration if you're trying to use both, wouldn't you say?

What if he's not using TI Connect? Unless I'm missing something, he hasn't said yet what program he's using.
