STM32 blue pill not connecting to Arduino IDE.

Hi guys, I have a STM32 blue pill and followed instructions from a youtube video which showed me how to program the Blue pill with the Arduino IDE. After doing something I was able to load code on to it but later I wasn't able to. I am using a MacBook Pro and the Arduino is giving me an error message of this-

Arduino: 1.8.9 (Mac OS X), Board: "Generic STM32F103C series, STM32F103C8 (20k RAM. 64k Flash), Serial, 72Mhz (Normal), Smallest (default)"

Sketch uses 12648 bytes (19%) of program storage space. Maximum is 65536 bytes. Global variables use 2456 bytes (11%) of dynamic memory, leaving 18024 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 20480 bytes. Error probing interface "serial_posix" stm32flash Arduino_STM32_0.9 Cannot handle device "/dev/cu.usbserial-A800GAP3"

Failed to open port: /dev/cu.usbserial-A800GAP3http://github.com/rogerclarkmelbourne/arduino_stm32

Using Parser : Raw BINARY

the selected serial port does not exist or your board is not connected

This report would have more information with "Show verbose output during compilation" option enabled in File -> Preferences

This is the error message I get every time I hook up my Blue pill to an FTDI tool. What should I do?

Sorry, I didn't read your question properly, yes I did keep the boot jumper from 0 to 1 and pressed upload on Arduino IDE.

It was working before I don't know how, I Pur the jumper to 1 and left it the program still ran. I had no problems. I installed something in terminal and the next time I uploaded code, it didn't work

I've no idea on Macs. On PCs there's a special driver needed for Arduino/CH340 combination. Don't you have a PC to hand you can try it on ?

I dont, regret buying this damn machine :(

Is it because its Mac OS that all these things never run?

I've no idea. Have you tried asking on the official STM STM32duino forum which is more likely to have the sort of people with the right experience ?

I am unable to make an account over there, there's only login option and thats it. How do I even make an account there and ask a question?
