I am having the same issue: "Problem uploading to board"
Received an Arduino Robot Car Kit with Genuino Uno board.
Using Mac OS 10.13 High Sierra.
I selected the com port /dev/cu.1411usbmodem but cannot connect.
Using most recent IDE 1.8.8
Programmer selected is AVRISP mkll

Any solution suggestions? Thank you !

I'm actually having the same exact problem right now but with the Windows IDE. What brand board are you using? I'm using an Elegoo Uno R3.

spycatcher2k:
What Arduino? What OS? Have you selected the correct com port? Why are you using an outdated IDE version?

Arduino Uno, Windows 10, yes I selected the correct com port, and I update the IDE version to 1.8.8.

and this is the error message now

I have the same issue with my Arduino Robot Car Kit with Genuino Uno board.

I was able to get it to upload once by clicking the reset button at the same time as it tried to upload.
It took me multiple attempts (20+) to get that to work.

I'm trying both windows 7 and windows 10

Tried multiple times after that and still no luck.

Anyone else solve this yet?

Wow, I'm amazed at how common this is, since it's happening to me, too. In the Eclipse IDE C++ Arduino plugin on Windows; thing is, it's only happening with my Nano and my Uno works fine.

Hey, I solved it.

  • Make sure you guys check over your drivers in your Device Manager and make sure you have official Arduino USB drivers installed for your Arduino.
  • Run the loopback test on your Arduino, and if it doesn't work, something is definitely wrong with the communication from your computer to the board.
  • If you have a 328P board, try testing the "(Old bootloader)" option if applicable, this fixed it for me.
