86 Updating the Handheld Operating System
Transferring the Operating System From Another Handheld
Note: You cannot transfer the OS on a TI-Nspire™ handheld to a TI-Nspire™ CX II
handheld and you cannot transfer the OS on an Exact Arithmetic or CAS handheld to a
non-Exact Arithmetic or non-CAS handheld. The operating systems are not the same
and are not interchangeable.
To transfer the OS from one handheld to another:
1. Ensure any open documents on the receiving handheld are closed.
2. Connect the two handhelds using a USB mini-A to mini-B USB cable.
3. On the sending handheld, select My Documents from the Home screen.
4. Press b, and then select Send OS.
On a TI-Nspire™ handheld, press b.
5. On the receiving handheld, the message, “You are receiving an OS Upgrade.
Unsaved changes will be lost. Would you like to continue?“is displayed along with
Yes and No response buttons. Select Yes to receive the OS upgrade.
• If Yes is not selected within 30 seconds, the handheld automatically responds
with No, and the transmission is cancelled.
• It is important to save and close all open documents before performing an OS
Upgrade. Continuing with an OS Upgrade on a handheld with an open, unsaved
document will cause the loss of that data.
6. While the upgrade is in progress, the following messages are displayed on the
receiving and sending handhelds:
• “Receiving OS. Do not unplug cable.”
• “Sending OS. Do not unplug cable.“
7. After the transfer completes, the sending handheld receives a completion message
and you can unhook the cable. The OS is automatically installed on the receiving
handheld. During the installation process, the “Installing OS <version number>”
message is displayed on the receiving handheld.
