Hi, I have just received my Blueduino board from AprilBrother. I have a working sketch in the Arduino IDE. It has been working with an Arduino Uno compatible board. However, when I try to upload it to Blueduino, I get these : Binary sketch size: 6,462 bytes (of a 32,256 byte maximum) avrdude: stk500\_recv(): programmer is not responding avrdude: stk500\_getsync() attempt 1 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x00 avrdude: stk500\_recv(): programmer is not responding avrdude: stk500\_getsync() attempt 2 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x00 avrdude: stk500\_recv(): programmer is not responding avrdude: stk500\_getsync() attempt 3 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x00 avrdude: stk500\_recv(): programmer is not responding avrdude: stk500\_getsync() attempt 4 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x00 avrdude: stk500\_recv(): programmer is not responding avrdude: stk500\_getsync() attempt 5 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x00 avrdude: stk500\_recv(): programmer is not responding avrdude: stk500\_getsync() attempt 6 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x00 avrdude: stk500\_recv(): programmer is not responding avrdude: stk500\_getsync() attempt 7 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x00 avrdude: stk500\_recv(): programmer is not responding avrdude: stk500\_getsync() attempt 8 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x00 avrdude: stk500\_recv(): programmer is not responding avrdude: stk500\_getsync() attempt 9 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x00 avrdude: stk500\_recv(): programmer is not responding avrdude: stk500\_getsync() attempt 10 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x00 When seeing these, I pressed the button on the board when “Binary sketch size: 6,462 bytes” appeared. But still the same errors. Did I do anything wrong? The Arduino IDE is running on Ubuntu. Thanks. ---

did you choose right board type “LilyPad Arduino USB” and serial port? A screenshot for Arduino IDE is better. ---

Selected another serial port in Arduino IDE. Now upload seems okay. ![](https://bbs.aprbrother.com/uploads/default/original/1X/4b22e7b6a80cf18f289e7a6a28f437deb99592d4.png) ---

Please create a new topic on this matter, as we try to keep each subject in separate topics here on support forum. A screenshot for Arduino IDE is better
