Using Arduino Nano on MacBook Pro

  • 01 Mar, 2019

Connect an Arduino Board to a computer is a easy task right? 99% yes.  My Arduino Nano Board arrived last week and i only have time to play with this board on the last weekend.

When i try to upload a program to the board i got the following:

Arduino: 1.8.8 (Mac OS X), Board: “Arduino Nano, ATmega328P”

Sketch uses 444 bytes (1%) of program storage space. Maximum is 30720 bytes. Global variables use 9 bytes (0%) of dynamic memory, leaving 2039 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2048 bytes. avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 1 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x50 avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 2 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x72 avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 3 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x6f avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 4 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x67 avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 5 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x72 avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 6 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x61 avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 7 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x6d avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 8 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x61 avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 9 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x20 avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 10 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x73 An error occurred while uploading the sketch

I tried on a Windows and Linux coputer with no luck but the same problem.

I read lot’s off posts in Arduino forums, some problems with MAC OS Sierra, i setup drivers  and nothing.

Today i found a solution :

Tools > Board > ATmega328P (Old Bootloader) on Arduino IDE.

The forum post https://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=530807.0 has more solutions for another problem. I think is because Arduino has several clones.
