Sometimes latest versions of the software can cause issues when installed on older devices or devices running an older version of the operating system.

Software makers usually fix these issues but it can take them some time. What you can do in the meantime is to download and install an older version of Arduino 1.6.3.

What's new in this version:

IDE:
- Fixed an ArchiveExtractor issue when dealing with native stuff, affecting some linuxes
- New splashscreen image
- New editor theme
- https links were not working, fixed

Core:
- Upgraded toolchains: statically compiled, ship with Link Time Optimization plugin (disabled by default)
- Restored backward compatibility by providing a platform.txt in-memory rewrite: old values (eg: compiler.path) are converted to new values
- platform.txt rewriting can be disabled if target platform has a "rewriting=disabled" key/value pair set
- AVR bundle files (core files and toolchain) is again inside IDE "hardware" folder, instead of unpacked into user's home folder at first IDE startup
- Advise of duplicate libraries after compiling.
