Dear all I'm writing you this time because im starting to have again problems with my AVRSIPmkII programmer, until now i was able both to program Arduinos and other chips as Attiny85 or Attiny 2313, and to burn bootloaders on all those chips.
After latest releases of Arduino environment I can load the program, (Sketch), without any problem on Arduinos and attinies, but I'm not able to burn bootloaders on the aforementioned chips, i always get the same message:
avrdude: usbdev_open(): did not find any USB device "usb"
Yes, I've had problems with certain builds of avrdude. Which IDE version are you using? Can you show the full error message?(You may need to check show verbose for Uploads in Preferences).
Dear all,
I have the same problem: using IDE 1.6.1 on Win7 X64, i am not able to burn bootloaders anymore with AVRISP MK2, error message:

System wide configuration file is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino/hardware/tools/avr/etc/avrdude.conf"
Using Port : usb
Using Programmer : stk500v2
avrdude: usbdev_open(): did not find any USB device "usb"
Strange: Burning sketches with the programmer still works.
Also burning a bootloader with Atmel 6.2 Studio and Visual Micro still works.
So there were a few known issues with avrdude v6.0.1 and AVRispMKII programmers. The one I most encountered was back-to-back access. If you do single avrdude access from command line or IDE uploads then it works fine. But for IDE Burn Bootloader access it will write fuse first then write the bootfile. It will usually succeed at burning the fuses, but then immediately fails at writing the bootfile, with the "did not find any USB device" error. I think there was some issue with how long Windows takes to re-open the USB for back-to-back operations.
Dear all, hi again, I'm still in the same position, I can load the program using programmer AVRSIPmkII, but I cannot upload bootloader,
I have an Arduino Uno too where I cannot load the sketch using the common USB connection, only I can do it using programmer, probably the bootloader is missing, but at this moment I cannot load bootloaders, but I can load sketches using AVRSIPmkII programmer, I was tried with the software suggested by hiduino,
, without results, probably I'm placing it in the wrong place or I was not understood how to use it, today mi configurations are as follows, Windows 8.1, Arduino IDE 1.6.2, any idea?, thanks a lot for your help.
Now i'm trying and looks good, tested only with an Arduino UNO it seems like working, i can upload the sketch both via USB or AvrispMKii, and i can burn the Bootloader too, thanks for your help.
Hi to all of you, bad news again, I was upgraded to IDE 1.6.3, and I can use the AVRSIPmkII to upload sketches on Arduino Uno and Leonardo, Attiny 85, Attiny 2313 and Attiny 4313, and I can also burn bootloaders in all of them but in Attiny 4313, every time I try to burn the bootloader on a 4313 I get this error:
avrdude: reading input file "C:\Users\JoseM\Documents\Arduino\hardware\tiny\avr/bootloaders/empty4313at1.hex" avrdude: can't open input file C:\Users\JoseM\Documents\Arduino\hardware\tiny\avr/bootloaders/empty4313at1.hex: No such file or directory
avrdude: read from file 'C:\Users\JoseM\Documents\Arduino\hardware\tiny\avr/bootloaders/empty4313at1.hex' failed
Error quemando bootloader
avrdude done. Thank you.
For me is too curious to have this file with the half of the length of same file referred to Attiny 2313;
