Problem with Ecoduino board connection (?)

Hi!
I get an Ecoduino a few months ago, and here we go! I just start using it
After some issues with the installation of the libraries (damn, how can we guess we should install it on .../documents/arduino/libraries? and not : c:/arduino/librairies ^^) I wanted to upload some test code...
I am using Arduino 1.0.5.r2 software. With a Windows 7 OS.
And first things appears...
1) Warning message:
avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x32
It seams it means that there is a problem of synchronism with the board (?)
2) If I open the monitor screen, consecutive lines of recording (I guess: temperature1/humidity/temperature2, etc.) such as:
22.00,0,47.00,63,ff
22.00,0,48.00,63,ff
22.00,0,48.00,63,ff
are displayed, but if I had code lines like:
>> Serial.print("hello world");
at the beginning of the loop(), nothing happens. In general, it seems that the ecoduino send message to my computer but not the reverse....
Some other questions:
3. Which type of Arduino is the Ecoduino? When I plug it in, Windows recognize it as a Leonardo. But if I select Leonardo type in Arduino software, behavior is worse.. Uploading freezes.
4. How to reset the board? There is a button on it, but how long should I push it? Is there any blinking led to indicates reset?
Can you help me?
Thank you very much for your help!
Cheers
Mathilde

2015-03-26 16:24:43 Well, actually and at least, I just update mu Arduino version >> 1.6.1
So, it starts to upload only if I put "Arduino Leonardo" for the board type.
Actually:
I connect the Ecoduino and Windows installed the drivers (Leonardo). It found everything, and everything seems ok. Then, I try to upload the code (example TestValueDisplay.ino) but Windows starts again to install the board but does not manage to... and displays "board is disconnected". No error message from Arduino software. As previously, I can open the monitor and see temperature/humidity data, but it is not possible to display something else....
