I have installed Arduino 1.5.5 and latest AtmelStudio 6.1 sp2
and latest visual Micro.
Sketches compile but will not upload and the
programmers option is greyed out

Hi,

Sorry you are having a problem we can help you fix it but need to understand the following thanks. 

Which board are you using and are you trying to use a programmer to upload or just a normal serial connection?

Sorry if the questions seem dumb but there is often some confusion in this area so just need to qualify exactly what you need to do. Thanks

I was stopped by not being able to program the board last time I tried Visual Micro.
I think the docs need to be enhanced.

Steps tried so far:-

Install Arudino 1.5.5 IDE, program Uno with Blink, via USB connection as per normal (for IDE)
This works

Install Atmel Studio 6.1 Sp2, (installs Atmel USB driver first)
(have also un-installed and re-installed Atmel Studio, no change) (also installed all available .Net updates)

Install Visual Micro. Visual Micro automatically selects USBasp as the programmer.

Set Arduino 1.5.5 path.

Open Blink sketch.

Build Solution outputs:-
Compiling 'Blink' for 'Arduino Uno'
Binary sketch size: 1114 bytes (used 3% of a 32256 byte maximum) (0.22 secs)
Minimum Memory Usage: 9 bytes (0% of a 2048 byte maximum) 

Does not try to program the UNO.
so choose Project -> Upload last sketch build
this gives the error
"Uploading to I/O board using 'usbasp'
avrdude: error: could not find USB device "USBasp" with vid=0x16c0 pid=0x5dc"

Hi, Sounds like you have ticked "Tools>Visual Micro
>Upload Using Pgorammer" by mistake. Please un-tick for standard serial upload.

And yes you are quite right, sorry the docs need a lot of work. This is the reason behind trying to recoup some return via debugger sales. The free tool takes a lot of time to create which gave little time for docs. Hopefully I can hire some help with the revenue from debugger sales Smiley
