Installing Teensyduino in Arduino IDE 2.1.1

Hi,

I am on a M2 Mac running OSX 13.2.1. I just installed Arduino IDE 2.1.1.

I am trying to follow the instructions to install Teensyduino on this page:

https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_download.html

I clicked on the Boards Manager in Arduino software, selected "All" types of boards, and typed in "teensy" and nothing happened. I am trying to follow the instructions as best as I can. Doesn't seem to work for me.

Am I missing something?

Thanks, Nick
 
I wanted to bump this, I'm having the same issue on a Windows 11 computer with an install of Arduino IDE 2.1.1
The "Additional boards manager URLs" contains the proper link to https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/package_teensy_index.json Screenshot 2023-07-16 194738.png
 
Hey @Heavy_Metal . Thanks for your reply. Ok I was able to install Teensyduino.

I went to settings. I put the link in the "Additional Boards Manager."
Then in the Boards manager of the Arduino sketch page I put Teensy and there was an option to install Teensyduino and it seems to have worked.

Thanks for the suggestions.
 
To cause Arduino IDE to redo the package index update (maybe something went wrong the first time?) press Shift-Ctrl-P and click "Arduino: Update Package Index". Keep an eye on the "Output" tab in the console area below the main code editor. If something goes wrong, it will probably give info there.

I believe Arduino IDE also just automatically retries the update after some amount of time. Might be 4 hours?

Could be a typo in the URL. But the screenshot in msg #2 looks ok.
 
If the Shift-Ctrl-P -> "Arduino: Update Package Index" trick doesn't fix things, before we try to get Per involved for info about how to *really* dig into the nitty-gritty of whatever Arduino IDE is really doing, please show screenshots of your Preferences and Boards Manager with "teensy" search giving nothing. With technical problems, often a misunderstanding (especially if the directions aren't as clear as they should be) can only been seen with a photo or screenshot.
 
nicnut, glad that helped!
Paul, shift-ctrl-p and "arduino: update package index" tricked for me! thanks for the prompt response!
 
I have a newer problem -- not sure if etiquette is to start a new thread though.

In brief, after installing teensy i still get a compiler error that "teensy version 1.20 or later is required to compile the Audio library"

screenshot shows the IDE board manager as having teensy 1.58.1 installed and I am compiling the Recorder project directly from the examples folder.

Maybe this isn't compatible with mkrzero board? https://www.arduino.cc/reference/en/libraries/seeed-arduino-audio/ made it seem like it would be, though i might have misinterpreted

The link points to a port of the PJRC Audio library - last update 2 years back?

PJRC makes and supports the Audio library in TeensyDuino for Teensy, and that port is maintained by others for use on non-Teensy devices.
