Regarding Circuit Playground (not express)
Order 1750237-1946009600 04/30/18
Last semester we kept hitting the reset button on the older model
circuit playgrounds. I did not realize at the time there were 2 versions,
and we were trying to access the web application instead of the code.org.
Is there a way to get them back to their original state? They are not
working when we connect.

Re: Circuit Playground not connecting
When you say "not working", do you mean with code.org, or the boards are not working at all? As a test - can you upload the basic blink example?
https://learn.adafruit.com/introducing- ... #blink-7-5
If so, then all you need to do to work with code.org is upload the firmata firmware to the Circuit Playground:

Re: Circuit Playground not connecting
I made it to the download, ran the code and got an error message: Couldn't find a Board on the selected port. I ran it again and pressed reset right after clicking upload. I am also using the original usb cable that came with the Educator pack.

Re: Circuit Playground not connecting
Try that again, but use the Blink example instead of the talkie sketch. Basically this:
