Hi there, i've got an arduino uno and i'm using scratch to program it. I'm using linux and i can't connect the uno to scratch. i'm doing the steps exactly. Hope you can help.

Any error messages? What browser are you using? There's a chance that a newer browser version is not supporting the software so it does not connect, at least that's the case for me recently. Have to switch to a compatible version.

  1. No
  2. I'm using firefox

P.S: I tried using firefox BETA (nightly) on a windows computer and it didn't load the page At All.

I think Firefox dropped the support for certain plugins Scratch uses recently.

You can try with the Firefox Extended Support Release. It worked for me.

Hope this helps :)
