Note: Not all TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition graphing calculator files are compatible with other TI‑84 Plus Family graphing calculator files because of the high resolution of the TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition color screen. In general, numeric files (not limited to lists, variables, matrices, and functions) are shared between these graphing calculators but Apps are not shared between these graphing calculators even if they have the same title. When incompatible, the computer file extensions for the TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition are different from a similar variable from the TI‑84 Plus/TI‑84 Plus Silver Edition graphing calculators.

* Programs created using commands available only in the latest OS version will not transfer to graphing calculators with an earlier OS version.
* App Vars and Programs should be reviewed for use after the transfer between the TI‑84 Plus Family and the TI-84 Plus C Silver Edition graphing calculators. Some App Vars may not setup an App as expected. Some Programs will need to be modified due to the difference in screen resolution and new commands.
** You may receive a version error if you used DOT-THIN line style. Change the line style to avoid the error.
