problem with blink program

Post by thosbryan »

Newbie here. Downloaded IDE software to imac. Ran Arduino program and opened Blink program. When I plugged in the UNO, led 13 immediately lit up. Not sure why. Had not uploaded program yet. When I uploaded, got this error:

avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding

Any suggestions as to where I am going wrong

What port did the Uno connect to? Are you sure you are using a data cable as opposed to a charging cable?

Gotta work on this a bit more. Had not yet wired up the board when I tried to upload the program. Will get back if I can’t figure it out. Thanks.
