Every time I want to upload a sketch (Mac OS X 10.11.4, Arduino IDE 1.6.7), I get the following error:
Sketch uses 1,066 bytes (3%) of program storage space. Maximum is 30,720 bytes.
Global variables use 9 bytes (0%) of dynamic memory, leaving 2,039 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2,048 bytes.

I have checked the USB drivers (FTDI and CH340, the Chinese clone driver) and they seem to work fine, I could see and select the ports in the 'Port' section. I have tried different versions of the IDE (1.5-1.6), even installed it on Windows and nothing works. I've tested three different boards and still no luck. Needless to say I have tried to upload a sketch from the Terminal using avrdude and I got this error:
avrdude: ser_open(): can't open device "unknown": No such file or
directory
On the top of that, there's no avrduderc file in the users folder I'm running out of ideas. I have recently installed an AVR cross compiler and that may have messed up things. Any ideas would be appreciated!
UPDATE: after removing Crosspack with 'sudo /usr/local/CrossPack-AVR/uninstall' and avrdude with 'brew uninstall avrdude' I finally removed the Arduino app and the /User/Library/arduino15 folder. Now I don't get the previous error, instead I get
avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding
A HEARTFELT PLEA: if you don't like my question, please comment instead of voting me down! I'm always happy to delete or adjust/edit my original question. Thank you!
