Setting Up Arduino - Noob Problem

Using Arduino Avrdude, stk500, Bootloader issues
#1

Hi, I am just starting out with my Arduino and trying to get it set up. However, after downloading the IDE on my Mac and hooking up the usb to the Arduino and attempting to run the initial blink sketch I get this error:

Arduino: 1.8.8 (Mac OS X), Board: "Arduino/Genuino Uno"

Sketch uses 930 bytes (2%) of program storage space. Maximum is 32256 bytes.

Global variables use 9 bytes (0%) of dynamic memory, leaving 2039 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2048 bytes.

That's not an error. That's some helpful information the Arduino IDE provides to tell you how much memory your sketch uses.

If there is a problem, then you need to provide us with a detailed description so we can help you. Otherwise, get back to having fun with Arduino!
