Can't upload sketch to Nano Every

Official Hardware Nano Family Nano Every
1

I'm having trouble connecting to the Nano Every. I have a UNO that I connect to just fine with the cloud based editor and with agent version 1.2.5 running on a Mac mini running Monterey 12.0.1.

I decided to download the IDE and give that a try to connect to the Nano Every.

What I tried:
Downloaded and am running Arduino IDE Version 2.0.0-rc3
Used board manager to install Arduino megaAVR Boards Version 1.8.7
Selected a board with name Arduino Nano Every
Selected a port /dev/cu.usbmodem807.......
Tried two different USB micro cables.
Tried Arduino IDE Version 1.8.19
Verified using terminal that my USB port name matches that used by Arduino IDE

This is the screenshot of what I'm getting.

I'm new to Arduino but I'm leaning towards a user permission issue with the port.

Any help is appreciated.

Could you solve your problem?
I am having the same with the Nano Every.
It seems to me like the driver is missing, even though the Boards Manager library is Arduino megaAVR Boards Version 1.8.7

I cannot select any Port to connect to the Arduino. My PC doesnt see.
I tried different USB cables. Still is it possible, that the cable is the problem?

Use a good quality data USB cable (do not use a USB hub or USB 3.0 port) and use a classic IDE like Arduino IDE 1.8.19 with the package core installed.

@Dozie this topic is about the Nano Every. The double reset technique does not work on this board.

I’m having exactly the same issue - green power light and nothing else. Has anyone found a fix for this please?

Hi !
Might be a (for whatever reason) messed up firmware. Error message mentioned above as well as the obersvation that no COM port can be assigned in the IDE reminds me of a problem I had. Maybe this helps: https://forum.arduino.cc/t/arduino-nano-every-upload-of-sketch-suddenly-not-possible-anymore/945089/20

I agree with dozie. Try using an older version of Arduino IDE, since you are using a very new version (2.0.0)

I tried using an older version of IDE and still didn’t have any luck. Wish someone could figure out a solution for this problem.

I know you said you verified this port, but it is worth doing a double check that this is really the port of your Nano Every because this error can be caused by having the wrong port selected.

If you open the Tools > Port menu of the Arduino IDE, does it say "(Arduino Nano Every)" to the right of the port name like this?:

/dev/cu.usbmodem807NTAB2T8482 (Arduino Nano Every)

If not, then that port is not your Nano Every.

If you have official Arduino board, then try complete uninstall of the IDE, see https://support.arduino.cc/hc/en-us/articles/360021325733-How-to-do-a-complete-uninstall-of-the-Arduino-IDE. After this, install the latest classic version and the package core for the board.
Note: Use a good quality data USB cable (do not use a USB hub or USB 3.0 port).
