Uploading From Safari For Mac
While you’re writing and testing your programs, you’ll mostly be running themin the simulator, but once you’ve finished your program youcan compile it and run it on your micro:bit.
The basic steps are:
When trying to upload a photo to any website using Safari from my Photo Library it will open for just a second & then go blank like it doesn’t have permission but I’ve checked all the settings for Photos & Safari and it’s not listed anywhere. I can however upload from my Files in iCloud Storage. Currently using iPhone 7 Plus running iOS 11.
- My Mac is updated with the Mojave security updates and Safari 14.0.1 a few days ago. Since then, I cannot upload anything with Safari, like box, dropbox, canvas, no sites work. The Finder browser didn't pop up to allow files to be chosen for uploading. This is very frustrating.
- Plz upgrade MAC App Shutterfly! I love using the app for Apple iPhone & iPad with my Shutterfly account, however the Shutterfly App for iMac is nothing like the mobile version. Very frustrating and not user friendly, plus it is limited to the features which only allows you to upload photo books.
- Connect your micro:bit to your computer via USB
- Click Download and download the
.hex
file - Copy the
.hex
file from your computer onto the micro:bit drive

Requirements
Uploading From Safari For Mac Mojave
You need the following things to transfer and run a script on your micro:bit:
- A-Male to Micro USB cable to connect your computer to your micro:bit. This is the same cable that is commonly used to connect a smart phone to a computer.
- A PC running Windows 7 or later, or a Mac running OS X 10.6 or later
Step 1: Connect your micro:bit to your computer
First, connect the micro:bit:
Connect the small end of the USB cable to the micro USB port on your micro:bit.
Connect the other end of the USB cable to a USB port on your computer.
Your computer should recognise your micro:bit as a new drive. On computersrunning Windows, MICROBIT
appears as a drive under Devices and drives. On a Macit appears as a new drive under Devices.
Step 2: Download your program
- Open your project on https://makecode.microbit.org/
- Click Download
- When prompted, choose to save the compiled file onto your computer. Theprompt will be different depending on which browser you are using, orwhether you are using a Windows computer or a Mac
When you select Download in Safari a file called Unknown
will bedownloaded into your Downloads folder. Open your Downloads folder and drag anddrop the file onto your MICROBIT
drive, under Devices:
Step 3: Transfer the file to your micro:bit
- Once you’ve found the folder containing your
.hex
file, drag and drop it onto yourMICROBIT
drive - The LED on the back of your micro:bit flashes during the transfer (which should only take a few seconds).
- Once transferred, the code will run automatically on your micro:bit. To rerun your program, press the reset button on the back of your micro:bit. The reset button automatically runs the newest file on the micro:bit.
By copying the script onto the MICROBIT
drive, you have programmed it into theflash memory on the micro:bit, which means even after you unplug the micro:bit,your program will still run if the micro:bit is powered by battery.
