I am using an Arduino Uno with a USB Host Shield. I can't upload my sketch on Mac. I recieve this error avrdude: stk500_recv programmer is not responding and then the upload fails. Sometimes I recieve this error when I remove the USB Host Shield, avrdude: stk500_disable0: protocol error. I tried using the Adruino Uno on Windows 10 and it is working fine without the USB Host Shield plugged in. But on the Mac it doesn't work with or without the USB Host Shield. I tried to downgrade from Catalina 10.15 to Mojave 10.14 and installed the latest version of Arduino software, but this didn't solve my problem. I tried to make sure the right ports were selected, the programmer, and the board itself. I also tried changing the preference to check compilation and upload but nothing seems to work. I tried resetting the Arduino while uploading and many other fixes from the forums but nothing seems to work. I need help. I have been trying to do this for 3 days and I can't find a solution.
