    You probably typed zr when you meant to type z*r. Maple does not do implicit multiplication like that. – Jacques Carette Aug 27 '16 at 17:07
  • This is one of the many cases why I find the 2D notation inferior to the Maple notation - it can be obscure. Your problem here is that zr is interpreted as the variable $zr$ and not $z\cdot r$. This is, however, a nice and intended feature as we are then not restricted to single-letter variables and functions. – Therkel Aug 29 '16 at 08:31

Which version? Here are the inputs/outputs for Maple V or Maple 7, they should work with yours too:

diff(BesselI(a, z*r),r);
> (BesselI(a+1,z*r)+a/z/r*BesselI(a,z*r))*z
