If you mean switching the display to scientific notation so as to see the exponents, press MODE, select "Sci" on the top line, press ENTER then 2nd QUIT.
If you mean entering a power of ten, use the shifted function of the comma key located just above the 7 key (marked EE for Enter Exponent).
If you mean the exponential function, use 2nd e^x (the shifted function of the LN key, located left of the 4 key).
If you mean to raise 10 to a power, use 2nd 10^x (the shifted function of the LOG key, located left of the 7 key).
If you mean to raise an arbitrary number to a power, use the ^ key, located above the divide key.

That means that you know your calc crashed. This can be caused by taking out the batteries durring running time, happened just randomly. Well nothing to fear just press clear and it should go away but if it stays on that screen you have problems and is best to try some of these methods. Take out all the bateries and press and hold the on button for 30 seconds. Put the batteries back in and it should have reset. Warning you should archive everything incase this happens. To archive go to 2nd mem and hit enter to put a astrick next to the app (meaning archived)

SOURCE: Find the antilog on the TI-83 Plus for finding pH in chemistry problems

I reccently had the same problem, but I have a Ti-84 Plus,and I am disgusted by how poorly this matter is covered by Texas Intruments. Esp. since the solution is rather simple.

The antilog key is [2nd] [log] or the 10^x. On your screen it should apear as 10^( and then you just input the value that you want to find the antilog of.

When used to solve pH problems remember to input the pH value as a negative number, since pH= -log[H+] then [H+]= antilog(-pH).

Hope that helped))))) ^^

SOURCE: my TI-83 plus calculator doesn't work

As battery gets drained, the screen contrast dims. But when you change batteries, some times the contrast is reset to some low value and the screen appears dead: it is so light that you do not see anything, and you think the calculator is malfunctioning. This is the most frequent reason users think the calculator refuses to turn ON. And I hope that is the case now.
To correct that, you must increase screen contrast: draken the screen a bit. To do so

  1. press [2nd] key and release it.
  2. Press the Up arrow and HOLD pressure.
  3. Keep pressing the arrow key until screen is dark enough.
If that solve your problem that is good, rate the post accordingly.. If that does not, do not get irate and berate the post. Post a comment here describing what you did and what message (if any) calculator returned, and I will give you further diagnostic steps.

I need to know how to enter anything above cube root into my TI-83.

  1. Use the universal power key marked with [^].
  2. To avoid problems if the exponent is an expression, enclose it in parentheses.
  3. To enter any power type number^(exponent)
  4. If exponent is negative use the (-) change sign key next to the dot, below the 3 key.
  5. To calculate the roots (cubic, fourth, fifth, etc.) roots use the fact that a root of n-th order can be represented as ^(1/n)
  6. Ex: cube root of 27: 27^(1/3); square root of 64 : 64^(1/2) or 64^(0.5)
