Hello everyone,
I recently bought a new RA+. I've been using it as-is with the built-in software. I'm ready to get started with coding. So I followed the instructions very carefully. Serial port is correct. Board is correct. Went to File, Sketchbook, Example Codes and selected "InitialInternalMemory." I click Upload. Everything appears to be working correctly. The upload process runs. At the end the RA status light blinks for a bit and then at the bottom of the Arduino software window it says "Error Uploading." I tried it several times with the same result. I also shut down my computer and restarted and tried again. By the way, I'm using a Mac running OS 10.6.3 (Snow Leopard).

Any help would be appreciated.

Can you copy and paste the error you are getting?

Roberto,

Please see the attached file.

Think theres a missing library file for this version of Mac OS. I'm sure roberto will post the answer. Sorry I forgot the name of it or I'd help search.

Someone had the same problem and I think it is because the cpu is too old.

There is a work around in that thread but I don't think he ever tried it.

Roberto,
Thanks, but I got another error. When I downloaded avrdude 5.11 it had tons of files in it.
First, I removed the only one there was called "avrdude" in the Arduino folder on my mac and replaced it with all of the ones named "avrdude" in the downloaded one.
