According to Google others have had this problem, and found a fix. https://www.google.com/search?sourc...ude:+stk500_getsync():+not+in+sync:+resp=0x00

 

double check that you have the right board and the right port selected (check port in devices manager) once again and if it still does not work, reset the board. I've had same problem several times, and resetting the controller solved it every time.

 

Also check to make sure that the correct board has been selected by clicking on the TOOLS menu and clicking on BOARD from the drop-down menu. You will be presented with the list of all the boards available. Choose yours from the llist.

Don't rule out the possibility that your USB cable failed.

If you have not already done so, I would recommend you download the latest Arduino IDE version 1.0.1.
