ERROR: avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding - MAC OS 10.12.6

He venido trabajando con el MAC sin problemas hasta hace cuatro semanas. Ahora al retomar un proyecto me encuentro con que no es posible subir el programa a un Arduino NANO. El puerto USB lo reconoce por tanto no creo que sea problema de driver (el cual he re-instalado).

Transcribo el error:

¿alguien tiene una solución?
