PRCHEAT is notorious for clearing your calculator's memory unsuspectingly, but I didn't know this would happen on the TI-89 CAS!

Did you accidentally remove the batteries? That would could a system reboot that would delete everything in the RAM of your calculator.

Losing the main and backup batteries would result in an indiscriminate (if not complete) swipe of volatile memory.

Bad code can possibly do partial swipes, depending.

To answer the actual question, you have two options:
-Get the cable that connects 2 calculators together and get it off your friends at school
-Go to the TI site, they will be on there somewhere

most of the apps you want will be on the CD you got with the calculator

you need to install TI-connect and use a usb cable to hook the calc up to the computer.
