Lego WEDO not working in 2.0 Offline (v433)
Hello
I installed scratch 2 offline editor (v433) on my windows 8, also the plugin for scratch and i cant get it to work with lego wedo.
I m clicking more blocks -> add an extension -> Lego WeDo and nothing happens.
Its working only with the online version!
Thanks

Lego WEDO not working in 2.0 Offline (v433)
Yesterday I received my Lego Wedo kit: the first time I attached it to Scratch 2 (latest version) it worked with no problems at all (motors and sensors: all ok).
This morning Scratch required to me an Adobe Air update: I did it.
Since then, as soon as I include the standard extended Wedo blocks to any scratch project, it freezes (Scratch doesn't respond anymore, I've to kill it).
I'm using Windows 8.1/64 bit.
Any idea?
Many thanks in advance

I found an… empirical solution.
I just tried installing the browser alpha extension, here:
http://scratch.mit.edu/scratchr2/static/ext/download.html
And then… after opening the same Scratch 2 offline editor that 5mins ago didn't work… now it seems working again…
Probably some libs have been refreshed, or some system variables… who knows?

Update: after some usages, the solution has proved partially functional: from time to time I've to open Scratch with non-lego projects, detach the WeDo hub, load a lego project, and only after re-attach the Lego WeDo hub (otherwise Scratch freezes).

I hit a similar problem. I use online Scratch. The WeDo extension blocks work fine when adding the 1st tie to a project. It doesn't work (with a red light) on the 2nd time.
My workaround is: Remove the extension block. Make sure the project is saved (by making a non-relevant change). Close the project and reopen it. Now add the extension block again and it shall work.

We just pushed a fix for the online issues you were seeing! We're trying to get an updated offline editor out later today.

I have this problem, but on my main profile ( Windows 8.1 ) it's working, but I can't install the add-on on my other users' profiles.
Thx for help,

I've been working with the WeDo software before, but since my daughter has started learning Scratch at school, I just tried out WeDo with Scratch (online) on my MacBook Pro. However I have problems connecting: the connection is made but it is unstable, i.e., it keeps switching off and reconnecting. Can anyone help?

Sorry forgot a bit: after the above, I tried offline and it worked! … only once: the next time I started it, I got the same problem as the one mentioned above: the extension library does not import anymore! I tried everything, including removing everything and reinstalling, but it never worked again!
