The Motor Sketch

I set up per the Motor Sketch Diagram the control circuit to turn a motor on and off. I wrote the sketch:

int motorPin = 9;
void setup()
{
pinMode(motorPin, OUTPUT);
}
void loop()
{
digitalWrite(motorPin, HIGH):
delay(1000);
digitalWrite(motorPin, LOW);
delay(1000);
}

After compiling the sketch I received the following message:

avrdude:stk500_getsync():not in sync: resp=0x00

PLEASE assist me in what I am doing wrong. I am using all the necessary components: Arduino Uno, breadboard, transistor, DC motor, diode, 2.2K ohm resistor, and jump wires.

Can you upload any sketch to the Arduino?

I will try and get back with you.

It was the transistor. I had the C and E switched.
