Programmer Is Not Responding Error When Uploading A Sketch From ...

I recently ordered an Arduino Nano and when I tried to upload a sketch from the Arduino IDE I received the following error:

avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 1 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x9f avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 2 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x9f ... avrdude: ser_send(): write error: sorry no info avail Problem uploading to board. See http://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Troubleshooting#upload for suggestions.

Unfortunately the recommended page did not help. Although there are forum posts about devices that were delivered without a booloader, I definitely did not want to mess with burning it. The loop-back test seemed to be a good idea, but in the end it turned out that the solution is very simple: selecting the ATmega328P (Old Bootloader) from the Tools –> Processor menu fixed the problem:

If this does not fix the problem for you, I recommend checking this instructable for more tips: https://www.instructables.com/A-solution-to-avrdude-stk500getsync-not-in-syn/
