Uploading not working on computer with arduino mega

Development Tools IDE 1.x

The Arduino code I use is verified and all correct but the uploading just keeps repeating a error message.

Sketch uses 6850 bytes (2%) of program storage space. Maximum is 253952 bytes.
Global variables use 493 bytes (6%) of dynamic memory, leaving 7699 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 8192 bytes.

This means that the Arduino can't contact your board.

Normally this is caused by not selection the correct board in the tools menu. Note for a mega there is a processor type that needs to be set to the type you have.

It can also be caused by a faulty Mega or USB lead.

This is nothing to do with the code you are trying to upload.

Adding to @Grumpy_Mike's reply, does your port /dev/cu.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port disappear if you disconnect the Mega? If not, it's not your Mega.

Definitely the wrong port.

If the correct port is not showing up (something like "/dev/cu.usbmodem142301") you may need to install drivers for the USB-to-Serial chip on your Mega.
