I'm trying to use an Arduino board (brand new), but it doesn't show up as an available port to write to connect to. Under my boards it doesn't show up, but it shows up under "Other Devices" as "ATmega16u2 DFU"
I've read online that the firmware needs to be updated, and I followed the instructions on the following link:
https://www.arduino.cc/en/Hacking/DFUProgramming8U2
The link to the latest firmware is broken. How else can I go about this?
Have you installed the drivers? if it is an original arduino board, inside the IDE installation folders you will find the drivers.

Purchased some clone Arduino nanos a while ago and finally got to working with them.
Of the 3 i worked with, 2 of them upload and verify fine.
The third is able to upload (code functions properly), however it fails to read flash data.
this is required to post pastebin
Here is the output from a clone that worked:

Here is the output from the one with the issue:

What I've done so far:
Reflashed bootloader from working Arduino as ISP
CH340 driver installed
Used (old) bootloader when uploading
Tested on both Linux and OSX
Any suggestions or insight would be much appreciated.
If you have a working UNO or similar board, you could try uploading the bootloader using the Arduino IDE (https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software), and see if you get different results. Sorry, I'm not familiar with using avrdude.
The link on sparkfun gives really good instructions on how to accomplish this task. Scroll about half-way down to where it says Upload Arduino as ISP https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/installing-an-arduino-bootloader/all
Basically, you connect the UNO to your target as shown in the link, then select ArduinoISP in the examples menu, select the COM port and board, and upload the sketch. Then you select your target board in tools, and select Programmer, Arduino as ISP in tools, and finally, Burn Bootloader in tools.
I've had 100% success burning blank Atmega chips using this method.
I'm having a problem with ESP8266 in programming part.
I'm using Arduino Uno and have thousand times run programs.
It's has been my second day in completing my esp8266 simple fully function circuit
My current problem is :
ESPwifi library has many error even I download it from official github source code
So, I decided to use WIFIESP library and it stuck at TIMEOUT/NO WIFI/NO MAC ADDRESS
I cannot use pin 0 & 1 because a wire stuck in it.
I have search everywhere to solve my problem even tough needs alternative ways I will at least doesn't required NEW HARDWARE.
Reupdate : 08:18 PM 4.3.19
I just want steps without need AT firmware & able to post data to websites
I don't want extra boards EXCEPT:
Arduino UNO
ESP8266-01 (small one with 8 pin)
Windows 10 with arduino IDE latest version
I'm not sure what your real problem is, but here is my solutions:
In case you haven't install the esp8266 boards for the arduino IDE yet, then you should install it first. The installation instructions is documented on GitHub. Here is the snippet to install ESP8266 boards on Arduino IDE:
Start Arduino and open Preferences window.
Enter http://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json into Additional Board Manager URLs field. You can add multiple URLs, separating them with commas.
Open Boards Manager from Tools > Board menu and install esp8266 platform (and don't forget to select your ESP8266 board from Tools > Board menu after installation).
ESP Libraries needs Arduino Core Library to work. If you haven't install the board yet, then you will get many errors.
hope this help.
I want to install a Arduino MKRFox1200 .
I've installed the drivers,
but i can't find it in the IDE
and even its installed I see this message in the IDE
and this is the result of Get Board Info, but the board is flashing green
You need to install the MKRFox board support package.
Follow the getting started instructions and add the Atmel SAMD Core to your Arduino IDE from the Board Manager.
After you installed it, you should be able to select select the MKRFOX1200 in Tools>Board
I am trying to download code to my littleBits Arduino module on IDE software. I am not able to find the port whenever I am trying to download the image to the board. Is this an internal issue, or an issue with my Arduino board?
You need to check if the arduino serial driver is properly installed in device manager. If arduino serial port is available in Ports then you can download program through IDE
For visual help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HqXAmV_Ock
Make sure you have proper drivers for your board. In Arduino IDE make sure you are selecting the proper target ie, littleBits Arduino board.
If you are using the Linux system you can use dmesg to see if your system detected the device properly.
If you are using windows system use device manager to make sure your device is properly connected.
Has it ever worked? Did it work for a while then stop?
Reason I ask, I had a problem where the Little Bit suddenly stopped accepting new code. Whenever I tried to download, the Arduino IDE started reporting Unknown USB Device.
Turned out, we had bricked the device. I blogged my steps for recovery here.
Check tools>ports and see if any are available, try them all, (check
while the board is connected)
if none are available check device manager under com ports there should be your device listed if not the you need to reinstall the drivers.
also check if the board is connected correctly (i.e. the connection cord is working properly)
I purchased this extruder controller board and this board to connect it to the computer. I am following the tutorial above in trying to set it up. We successfully did the boot loader part of that tutorial and the DEBUG LED is flashing. I followed the tutorial all the way up to uploading the program. The Arduino software does not find it in "Tools -> Serial Port", but allows me to burn the bootlegger. The only options are a couple bluetooth devices I have connected, none of which are useful.
I am only aware of windows drivers for the ISP programmer board you're using. When I've ordered funky hardware off of eBay with a non-existent or difficult-to-find OSX driver, I've had success running Parallels. This is a funny work-around, but it might be your best bet -- many folks over on the Arduino.cc forums are having the same problem.
So: Curse the Gods. Buy parallels. Install windows. Install Atmel's official drivers. Burn your bootloader. Get back to building.
As always, if a serial port isn't showing up in the Arduino IDE, run the following command from Terminal:
ls /dev/tty* | grep 'usb'
