Did you check the FAQ ("Why I can't upload my programs to the Arduino board?")?

yeah have checked everything and looked at other peoples problems. the 2 usb ports on my mac are being reconised. and have the baud speed at 9600. i am resettiing right before i upload. but just keeps coming up with the exact same error. bit wierd any other ideas?

Try holding down the reset for a second or two before clicking the upload button then only release after clicking it... this works for me on my powerbook. Also check that you have the correct serial (usb) port selected.
