Freeduino v0.1 avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00 - arduino

I have a freeduino board, v0.1. ATMega 328
I am running Windows 8 and trying to run the 'Blink' program
Arduino 1.0.5 Software
I have chosen Arduino Uno as board type
My Serial port is COM3
When I try to upload a program I get the error
avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00
I have disabled bluetooth as well.
Please let me know if my board selection is correct

As far as I know the "freeduino board, v0.1. ATMega 328" doesn't equal the "Arduino Uno", but the "Arduino Duemilanowe w/ Atmega 328". So, go to Tools and select "Arduino Duemilanowe w/ Atmega 328".

Another reason it might fail is because your driver wasn't installed correctly. In this case reinstall your driver.

Freeduino should run with Uno setup. However if your controller does not have a bootloader, if you serial connection is wrong or if the controller is not running at all you will get the same error.

I have gotten this error when the COMn port is not available or defined. A com port can become not effective when you just unplug the board/USB cable.
When you re-plug the USB cable into the PC, then in the Arduino IDE define the correct port and try compiling/reloading the program.
On my Windows/XP Pro machine, the Arduino uses COM5, but lists COM4 and COM5 as available choices.
Hope this helps.

I had the same error. My board was working all perfectly without any error and suddenly it threw this error. After much testing, I unplug the board from the USB port and plugged into another USB port (in the PC) and it all worked perfectly !
Of course that required changing the Serial Port number from Arduino -> Tools > Serial Port
My board is working perfectly now.

I have had the same error, nothing worked. Tried almost every option mentioned.
But the solution for me was simple. I have Windows 7 64-bit.
First remove all drivers and everything wat looks likes al (virtual) USB to COM port driver.
Reboot (its Windows)
Install the right drivers from the Arduino IDE drivers\ map, in my case the 64-bit drivers.
Go to site for the FTDI Chip drivees make the right choice for your OS and install.
Reboot (not asked but he its Windows)
Then I connected the Arduino en tried to upload the Blink-sketch.
And everything worked as expected.

I had the same error so i change the serial port to COM1 to COM4, and I am using windows 7
so go to tool->serial port->change COM1 to COM4
If that didnt worked try to change board from Arduino uno to Duemilanove.
Hope this help you.....

avrdude: stk500_recv():programmer is not responding

I bought a new Arduino Ethernet Shield and connect it to Arduino Uno. When I uploaded my code, I got the error avrdude: stk500_recv():programmer is not responding. Without the Ethernet Shield, it could run succeed. I have tried all the solutions on the Internet. Mac os 10.10.5 and Arduino 1.6.10. The board I chose is Arduino Uno and serial port is dev/cu.usbmodem1421. I have tried to reset and reinstall Arduino IDEļ¼Œand downloaded FTDI driver. These solutions are not working.
I think you are getting this error because one of these two problems.
Maybe you are trying to upload program while your rx and tx pins are connected with other components.
Or maybe your Arduino is bricked.
For the 1st problem solution is just disconnect wires rx,tx and try to upload the sketch. For 2nd problem use another Arduino to upload program on it(SPI connection). You can follow these steps to resolve your issue written in this article:Programmer is Not Responding Arduino - avrdude: stk500v2_getsync() | Solution

Not able to upload code to Arduino

My Arduino Uno was all set up and was working fine.
Project: Arduino controls a 9v motor depending on the command given. As the Arduino only provides 5v, I added a 9v battery to it through a transistor
I decided to add new code into the Arduino but when I tried it failed. I have uploaded code thousands of times before (successfully) all of a sudden the IDE keeps giving the following message
avrdude: ser_open(): can't open device ".\COM3": Access is denied.
I have looked up for a lot of solutions on this forum and elsewhere. Here are the things I have tried so far:
Changing the COM port
Disabling all the other devices CONNECTED to COM
Tightening the CONNECTIONS
Re installing all the drivers and the IDE
Rebooting the system
Using another laptop to upload code
All the above have given me the same output for some reason. The built in LED light and the power LED switch on when the board is connected to a power source (my laptop). Could the board have been damaged by any chance? How can I check if the board is spoilt? Should I buy a new board?
this may help;
remove the mcu from the board and connect the board to your PC.
try to open the com port.
if it opens, short TX pin to RX pin.
send some data and check if you are getting the data back. this way you can make sure your usb-ttl is not damaged.
With my verry limited experience with Arduino I've seen that the IDE sometimes resets the saved arduino on startup. Press extra -> Board -> yourboard and try again.
make sure you have the right ports COM1 and COM1
activate it too in arduino
Once it happened to me that a defective USB cable was the culprit. For one board it gave messages like
avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage(): timeout
But for another board I also got these messages "can't open device - access denied". It's always worth to try another cable.

Arduino Uno blinking YL "Programmer is not responding"

Hey guys so I'm pretty new to Arduino and I've been having some trouble with my Uno MC, I decided to pick one up as a little side project in the January sales and only just freed up the time to really start using it.
The first problem is, when I hook up my Uno to my windows 64x PC using a UsbA-B cable (for power) I get a blinking YL on the Uno.
Second problem is, when I attempt to upload an example sketch to the Uno, for instance, "Blink" using the Arduino IDE I get the following error.
avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 9 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x01
avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding
Have no idea how to fix the issue, but here's some information I know:
My board does show up in Computer Management under my COM3 port as "Arduino Uno" so I believe my drivers aren't the issue here.
I also have the correct board selected in the IDE.
I reinstalled the IDE and reset my computer after installing the drivers, none ofthe errors were fixed.
I've tried holding down the reset button on the Uno (As shown here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=plCxXwiUK-w) and that doesn't solve my issue.
Any advice?
Under Tools>Port in the IDE I inexplicably had (COM1) as my active port and not port (COM3) where my Uno actually was.
Program now successfully uploads without errors.
You have to install Boot Loader.To do this you can use a micro controller Programmer such as USBasp and your Arduino software.First insert your atmega328 micro controller on Programmer then use Burn Bootloader in Tools menu of Arduino software then return back your atmega to its location on Arduino.

Drivers for freeduino (ATmega 328P)

I am getting a lot of problem finding the drivers for Arduino Duemillanove- ATMega 328P .
I installed Silicon technologies- CP210X USB to UART Driver and FTDI drivers also but nothing happened. I chose the right port and board in arduino software . Still i am getting the error avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00. My pc is windows 7 32 bit operated.
Download driver from here
http://www.silabs.com/Support%20Documents/Software/CP210x_VCP_Windows.zip
unplug the freeduino board and install driver software
3.connect freeduino with PC
go to manage window from my computer , check whether port has been properly detected or not

Arduino Pro Mini bootloader issue

I have uploaded a project on an Arduino Pro Mini for an LED matrix. The Arduino Pro Mini has a problem after upload. The LED flashes fast and I cannot upload anything else like a blink sketch. The Arduino IDE gives this communication error:
avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00
I don't know if you solved your problem, but I just found it while looking for another answer.
Usually that issue means that avrdude can't talk to the programmer, which means that either:
you did not select the right programmer/board in the tools menu,
you did not select the right USB port,
you did not install the FTDI driver if you're using a FTDI based programmer,
your USB device has not been brought up by your system (then you shall try replugging the cable, reload the USB driver or rebooting your computer, depending on your OS and setup)
