Hi all,

I am a new HP Prime user. I have the connectivity kit and the emulator downloaded. I also downloaded some HP Prime apps onto my laptop. The thing is, I don't know how to transfer apps to the calculator. Can someone please tell me how to transfer, let's say, the periodic table app from my laptop onto my HP Prime?

Thanks in Advance,
Shaheer

Provided you are up to date on the connkit, just drag and drop to the calculator tree.

However, the periodic table file is a program, not an app, so it will show up in the "programs" location and not in the app menu.

Thanks. However,the Periodic Table isn't working for some reason. Sad

Edit: Looking at this (http://www.hpmuseum.org/cgi-sys/cgiwrap/...ead=256873) Miguel Toro said he did something to make it work, but I don't know how to program with the Prime yet.

You transferred the program just fine. The app just happens to have a bug that needs to be fixed by the author. Have you tried this version?

THANK YOU! It worked. Big Grin

Am replying within this thread, since I am experiencing an issue with the connectivity kit and emulator.

I wrote a CAS function in the emulator, yet when I start up the connectivity kit the function isn't visible? At least it isn't showing up under "Programs" in the Kit GUI. However, if I right-click "Programs" and select "New", this new CAS function shows up immediately in the emulator.

I was wanting to copy the CAS function into the connectivity kit, then plug in my real HP Prime and transfer the function to it. I suppose I can cut and paste.

You may have tried: from CAS [Vars] | CAS |2. Program, which should do the trick.

Oh, are there any good programs/apps for Chemistry students?

Edit: For anyone having trouble transferring apps, download the utility from here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxG-R0QZ..._546885687)

Works FLAWLESSLY, at least for me.

You can also just send it from emulator to the calculator, bypassing the conn. kit entirely (provided the programs are installed on the emulator -- can be done with just copy/paste).

What I mean is, none of my CAS functions appear to be visible within the calculator tree displayed in the left panel of the Connectivity Kit PC program. I don't know if they are supposed to?

So if I wrote a CAS function in the HP Prime emulator, how do I get it onto the physical HP Prime device? Han suggests (if I read his reply correctly) that cut and paste works. I understand cutting the CAS code from the emulator, but what do I then paste into?

My Connectivity Kit is currently displaying two calculators in the left panel - one is the emulator (with the CAS code) and the other is the physical HP Prime.

Thanks.

If you are trying to send them over to your calculator, just paste the code into either a CAS program (on the emulator) or into a note. Then send that on over to the calculator, and copy/paste (using the calculator copy/paste) as needed. Usually, CAS functions created in the CAS view (and not as a CAS program via the program editor) are treated like normal temporary variables. This is why you don't see them in the conn. kit. If you create them as a CAS program (again, via the program editor), then they will be listed in the programs section.

My initial post about copy/pasting was to copy code from an external source (e.g. internet) and paste into the emulator. This only works for programs whose code is available as text files. Then just send directly from emulator to calculator. However, if you want to make backups, you could copy from emulator (using the emulator's copy/paste feature) and paste onto a regular text file in Windows.

Are there any other good apps for Chem students besides the Periodic Table?
