I have tried several different sketchbook locations (Arduino > Preferences) - all result in same error, and failure to upload the sketch to the board. No blinking tx or rx. My "L" led flashes...
Seems like the app is not respecting my pref for sketchbook.path - or something is whacky about my environment that arduino.app doesn't like...
Previous posts on this were old, didn't provide any clues.
FAQ same... all it suggests is don't run from the .dmg
Also currently the forum's search function is not working.
Does it matter what is chosen for tools > programmer?
