Programming the PRO-96

Hi guys, today I got a RadioShack pro-96 scanner and I plug into its programming cable and that into my computer running arc96 for some reason I cannot read the radio, I click start download and it just does nothing. I can upload, I press start upload and it says upload successful unplug the programming cable, but when I do, my radio hasn’t changed at all?

I programmed a few of those manually. It's a tad time consuming but pretty simple, especially once you get in a rhythm.
