error help pretty please...

[auspicious]

avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x30
avrdude: stk500_disable(): protocol error, expect=0x14, resp=0x51

that is what it says... it wont even load the most simple sketches like "blink"....

I'm not sure what the deal is...

the stepper motor is still turning around, and i assume that must be from a month ago, because i have not sucessfully loaded anything to the arduino that I know of.

does anyone know what to do with this thanks for your time.

Make sure that you have the correct board-type selected in the IDE.

got it

it appears i was using the wrong port...

now though, there is an error that is comming up that i didnt have before... in regards to the AF_motor constant speed test

it says that "Accelstepper does not name a type" any ideas on that instead. thanks again!

same results with the AF_motor multistepper

..........................................................................................

got that one too...
apparently the program i wanted for now is called stepper test, and was in library somewhere...

[franklin97355]

Do you have the AF_Motor library installed and in the correct location?

[adafruit_support_bill]

If you are using AccelStepper, you will need to install that as well. Use the one from the MotorShield download page, since it has support for the shield.

Be sure to exit all instances of the IDE and restart it after installing the libraries.
