| Feb 16, 2017 at 1:54 | comment | added | Sergei Glimis | Ok sorry for being lazy, i did what you have told me to do I wired up a button to the reset and ground of the pro micro and clicked it twice then looked at the port tab and there was still nothing it didn't do anything! :( What's the problem, because I should just buy more at this point, but I still want to fix these I paid for :( | |
| Feb 15, 2017 at 15:30 | comment | added | Sergei Glimis | OK thanks i'm not trolling, just confused. I'll try my best hopefully | |
| Feb 15, 2017 at 15:10 | comment | added | Enric Blanco | Are you trolling me or what? How can you ask how to force bootloader mode, when I've pointed that information to you several times. I've got tired of this, sorry. You've shown no effort to follow any single piece of advice, starting by ignoring the article I linked to. Good luck! | |
| Feb 15, 2017 at 13:18 | comment | added | Sergei Glimis | It does not show up on the serial port, How do I force boot loader mode? | |
| Feb 15, 2017 at 9:38 | comment | added | Enric Blanco | C'mon... It seems you're not following the procedure. Does the serial port show up when you force the bootloader mode? Don't use another Arduino, but the USB port of your Mac. Once you force the bootloader mode, you have an 8 seconds window to check whether it appears or not in "Tools -> Serial Port", so be quick! | |

| Feb 14, 2017 at 11:47 | comment | added | Sergei Glimis | If i upload anything it just says there's no board but I have one plugged in and it won't show up in the serial com tab. | |
| Feb 14, 2017 at 11:46 | comment | added | Sergei Glimis | There not even a port to connect to on my computer, it doesn't show up on my computer that's the problem. | |
| Feb 14, 2017 at 11:43 | comment | added | Enric Blanco | Please read the full article that I have linked to you. There is a section with a Pro Micro specific "blink" example code. Copy it to a new sketch, try to upload it and see what happens. | |
| Feb 14, 2017 at 11:38 | comment | added | Sergei Glimis | what blink example?? | |
| Feb 14, 2017 at 8:41 | comment | added | Enric Blanco | Have you tried to upload the blink example from the link in my answer? | |
