Dear All,
I have had this error for the first time!!!
I wanted to use the adafruit shield with arduino to turn on a normal DC motor...then this error:
I have read so much in other forums and have tried them but it seems like nothing works!? It is quite odd and frustrating.
Would you please help me?
Regards
Karim

Make sure you have the correct Board Type and COM Port selected in the Tools menu of the IDE.
From your screen shot, I see you have COM1 selected. That may be the problem. Check in the Device Manager which port has been assigned to your Arduino.

Thank you very much, I tried that and it worked...
NOW the problem is I have connected a regular motor to one of the ports and I run the DC motor example and nothing works!! is there anything wrong with what i am doing OR the port is not making a proper connection?
Thanks.

Post some photos of the front and back of your shield and we can check the assembly. Also, what motor and power supply are you using?
