Morning all,
I have been using the IDE on the Mac happily for months and all of sudden it wont find my boards - on launch it also shows the error message read ECONNRESET. Currently using 2.3.3.
The odd thing is, I know the port is working as Arudino Cloud works and finds the boards, so as a work around i have had to move everything to the Cloud IDE.
I have looked into this for hours, tried resinstalling, completely clearing libraries etc and nothing, thus i am now posting for any possible help..
Thanks in advance,
Andy
Hi @Smithee11. I'm going to ask you to provide some additional information that might help us to identify the problem.
This procedure is not intended to solve the problem. The purpose is to gather more information.
Please do this:
- Select Arduino IDE > Quit Arduino IDE from the Arduino IDE menus if it is running.
- Open macOS Launchpad.
- Type
terminal in the "Search" field.
- Click on the "Terminal" icon.
A "zsh" window will open.
- Type the following command in the zsh window:
"/Applications/Arduino IDE.app/Contents/MacOS/Arduino IDE"
- Press the Enter key
- Wait for Arduino IDE to finish starting.
- Verify that the "wont find my boards" problem is still occurring.
- Switch back to the Terminal window.
- Press the Command+A keyboard shortcut.
This will select all the text in the Terminal window.
- Press the Command+C keyboard shortcut.
This will copy the selected text to the clipboard.
- Open a forum reply here by clicking the "Reply" button.
- Click the
<CODE/> icon on the post composer toolbar.
This will add the forum's code block markup (```) to your reply to make sure the output is correctly formatted.
- Press the Command+V keyboard shortcut.
This will paste the output into the code block.
- Move the cursor outside of the code block markup before you add any additional text to your reply.
- Click the "Reply" button to post the output.
Please let me know if you have any questions or problems while following those instructions.
