Upload Problem - Due

Official Hardware Mega Due
1

Hey there,

its my first time using an Arduino. I got the IDE Software installed, set the board, set the serial port and tried to upload the 'Blink' example file. But I only got he error message: avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding

I am running Yosimite on a MacBook Pro with 2,53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB Ram.

The board shows up in serial port menu (with /dev/tty.usbmodem). So from what I have read I should have no problems with the fdti driver...?
I tried the reset button, restarting, nothing works.

Do I need to change something in the 'Programmer' menu or burn the Bootloader?

Thanks for any help

Hello soxco,

Welcome to the Arduino world!
Question: What Arduino board are you using? UNO? MEGA? Due?
If DUE, you need you download the Arduino IDE 1.5.X version and start selecting the programming port. The IDE version you show (1.0.6) only works with AVR boards like UNO and MEGA.

Thanks Palliser!

That really helped. Its the Due. So this quickly solved my problem. Tomorrow I will get started properly. For now its just the blinking LED.
