Arduino IDE won't work with my CLUE Moderators: adafruit_support_bill, adafruit

When I try to install the "Adafruit nRF52" per the directions, I get this:

Error message in board manager window

There are a lot of messages in the other window, this is just a piece:

I believe I have the correct board manager URL:

I'll admit, I'm ignorant about how all this works. I think I've followed the directions to use the CLUE with the Arduino IDE properly, however. Can anyone help me figure out what's wrong?

One thing I see in the second image is "Arduino UNO on COM4" ... the CLUE is not an Arduino UNO. To compile code to be loaded onto it you will need to select the CLUE as the board to use (the Tools->Board setting).

Please read through the Arduino sections of https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-clue for further instructions.

That Boards Manager output does not look correct. Did you add the Board Manager URL as shown here?

The Adafruit nRF52 BSP is currently at release 0.20.1:

and your Boards Manager should look more like this:

I can't even install the support for the board. I can't change the board from "UNO" to the Clue until I do. That's what I'm asking about. When I finally install the suport, I can change to the CLUE board, but not until.

Yes. Please see my last picture of my board manager URLs. I believe it's correct. (unless I'm missing something)

[adafruit_support_carter]

Oops. Sorry. Didn't see the screen capture with the URLs.

Yes. That looks correct. Really weird. Try deleting the other entries and make it so it is the only URL in the list.

I found the problem. I'm embarassed to say it was my Arduino network settings. I'd have never found it if I wasn't checking my board manager URLs, and noticed the "network" tab. Somehow, it was set to "auto detect" proxy. I set it to "no proxy" and it worked.

I tried to edit the thread title to add "fixed," but either I'm unable to, or I can't figure that out, either.

Thanks very much.

No worries. Glad you figured it out. Let us know if you run into any other issues.

Excellent! Full speed ahead, then. Have fun!
