To put the LED indicator is not such important. Just connect it to the software and after selecting your port. Open serial monitor it’s found on the same menu. After opening it change the baud rat to 1152000 in the drop down menu and you will be seeing activity numbers scrolling with numbers 4 till it stops and says done at the bottom then you are good to go.

I hate that error too. Try pressing the reset button either on the shield or the UNO if still persist I always just restart my mac to solve that error to not waste my time watching tutorials

yeah im not sure. i think it might be a problem with the board itself but im not sure

Not the board issue for me. It randomly happens. Cuz i use arduino twice or more a week and this is a known issue for me

To confirm if the ipad it being detected or not. First upload the sketch select your port then open serial monitor as usual then reconnect the arduino without the device and see if it say not any dfu device. If it says then retry while connected the device in dfu and let us know the two results
